Spiritual Beings Today we are going to finish up this detailed study of spiritual beings. We have been making our way through a Bible Project study of the Elohim in the Bible.

How does God speak? 1. Creation 18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of…

This morning we are going to begin talking about the Kingdom of God! Many people view the kingdom of God as some place that they will go to when they die if they believe in Jesus This is absolutely correct! However, maybe it is a bit more than that? We are going to talk this morning about what the Bible…

Rethinking Trials and Temptations GOSPEL – Mark 1:12-15 THEME: Jesus overcomes Satan and rescues people from the devil’s dominion by His Gospel.

God pulls back the curtains of Heaven to declare who Jesus is; how will you respond?

GOAL — That hearers rejoice to know that, just as God loves and is pleased with His Son, Jesus; therefore, He loves and is pleased with us who are baptized into Christ.

River ( Mk 1:9-15 ) I don’t know whether or not I like the feeling of putting my feet in the water. My grandparents used to live next to a river with mudbanks that held prawns. You would sink up to your knees. And you could dig out the prawns by hand for my dad to put on the fish hooks. There is something…

We all long for new beginnings. Most people love things “new” and then when something becomes “normal” or “used” we quickly go to something else. Mark is writing a “biography” of Jesus. Now this is not the same as our biographies today nor is it as simple as this. Yet, if we understand and use this framework…

Know your place and boldly proclaim Jesus’ baptism of repentance as you wait for His return.

Now when they drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it. If anyone says…

Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering…

Who Will Go for Us? The arrival of Jesus, the Messiah of Israel, is the fulcrum upon which God’s plan for the restoration of Eden tilts toward realization. He is the center of the biblical epic. Even though someone reading the Bible straight through has to wade 3/4s of the way into it before encountering…

Last week we talked about John the Baptist, the man who lived in the wilderness preaching a message of repentance because the kingdom of heaven was at hand. His whole purpose was to prepare the people for the coming of the Messiah, who was coming after him. His arrival was imminent. John’s goal was to…

(S1) — The Judean Wilderness ( erēmos) Desolate, uninhabited, rough terrain; deserted, barren, dry parched land as far as the eye could see. Few would journey there, let alone live there! The Judean Wilderness, home for nomadic shepherds, bandits and fugitives! A place where most would choose not to…

Since Jesus was sinless, why did He need to be baptized? Join Pastor Steve as he looks at Mark 1:9-11.
