Learning to Love

Slaves

In Romans Chapter Six,  Paul lays out a very peculiar sounding truth:  We are all slaves and the only Question is to whom shall we be enslaved?    There are only two choices:  Sin or Righteousness.    Sin which is offered and inspired by Satan or Righteousness with is created and given to us by God.  The Endpoint  of the two are very different.

Significance

We long to be significant,  but all too often, we feel as if our life hasn't really meant that much.  In Christ Jesus, however we are highly significant.   This sermon based on Exodus 19:2-8  shows how significant we are.

The Physician

Many people like to see Jesus as the "Great Excuser,"  that is,  one who says that your sins are fine at that you may continue in them.  But in reality,  Jesus is the "Great Physician"  who has come to heal us from the sickness of our sins.

Learning to Love

Perhaps the most difficult thing in the whole wide world is to learn how to love.  Many internal changes need to be made for it to even be possible.  The good news is,  our Lord Jesus has given us everything needed for us to learn this.   This sermon, based on John 14:1-2,  begins by exposing an apparently scriptural conflict between  salvation by grace and Jesus' call to keep the commandments;  it resolves in a clear exposition of how God works to help us love.

This is The Way

"I am the way, the truth, and the life"   is perhaps one of the most important things Jesus has ever said.  This sermon explores  why this is so.
