 The Holy Spirit continues to draw large numbers of people to God.  

 On Pentecost Sunday, we celebrate the living presence of the Holy Spirit as he blows on us and gives us spiritual life. 

As the Lamb of God, Jesus shed his blood for our salvation. His blood is more powerful than an earthquake or a supernova. A drop can cleanse an ocean of sin. 

    Never take your eyes off of Jesus.

   A house is a building, but a home is a family. 

   Jesus told the disciples that they should have expected the Messiah to die and be resurrected because the Old Testament foretold it. The same Bible foretells what will happen when he returns the second time. 

  Both Peter and Judas betrayed Jesus. Peter was restored. 

 When Jesus rose from the grave, he was exalted to the highest throne. His name is above every name in heaven, on the earth, and below the earth. All thrones, powers, rulers, and dominions must bow before hi. He is Lord! 

Since Jesus paid the penalty for our sins when he died on the cross, everyone merits a pardon from God.

 This service teaches why Jesus instituted the practice of foot washing as a symbol for continued cleansing. 

  Mystery solved. Why did the crowds that welcomed Jesus as the king on Palm Sunday call for his execution on Good Friday? 

  Judas wanted to profit from his relationship with Jesus. When he realized that Jesus was not going to be king, he wanted to cut his losses by getting money for betraying Jesus. He is an example of a person who looked back. 

 Daniel and his friends had to live countercultural lives to witness to God when they lived in Babylon. 

  Paul refers to the sin nature as the flesh. Theology refers to it as human depravity. Jesus came to set people free and save them from their inherent sinfulness so they could take on the righteousness of God. 

 Ruth is an example of a person who turned to God when she turned from her old lifestyle and sought to identify with Yahweh. The act of turning from her old life to a new life is repentance.

 In Lent, we strive to become more like Christ by dying to ourselves. This sermons examines conviction, repentance, and visible transformation.
