The Bible records many times that two or three witnesses must agree on a certain point before it is said to be true. Some of these are: Deuteronomy 17:6, 19;15, Matthew 18:16, 18:19-20, II Corinthians 13:1 and I Timothy 5;19. The Bible gives three undeniable proofs of the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. 1. The enemies of God. 2. The creation of God. 3. The people of God. 1. The enemies of God include Pilate, Matthew 27:65, Luke 23:4, Matthew 27:23-24. Pilate's wife: Matthew 27;19. Perhaps the most telling is when the soldiers witness the resurrection but were given much money and told to spread it around that the disciples stole the body. 2. The creation of God also testified silently, in Matthew 28:2, by a great earthquake and an angel from God sitting on the stone, which was moved from the burial opening. Matthew 27:45 declares there was darkness over the land from 12:00 noon to 3:00 PM. Matthew 27:51 states the veil of the temple was divided from the top to the bottom. Psalms 19:3-4 tells us that the even though creation cannot speak, their witness goes out all over this world. 3. The witness of the people of God. Matthew 27:52-53 speaks of physically dead individuals raising from the dead and going into the city and appeared to many. Matthew 28:9-10 records that Jesus told women to tell his disciples of a future meeting in Galilee. Matthew 16:9 tells of the first person who saw him, Mary Magadelene. Luke 24:13-35 speaks of two disciples on the road to Emmaus. God has given many witnesses of his resurrection, more than we can mention. God wants you to know his resurrection is real.

Law saves us not by keeping it but by reminding us that we have no hope since we cannot keep it on our own; we need Christ or we face judgment alone without hope.

Anxiety can make it difficult to think clearly, rest, or experience peace. Scripture does not ignore this struggle or offer shallow answers. Instead, God calls His people to bring their fears, worries, and burdens to Him in prayer. In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Dave Jenkins explains how Philippians 4:6–7 and 1 Peter 5:7 help Christians acknowledge anxiety honestly, examine where their trust is placed, and rest in the peace that God alone provides. Anxiety is real, but it does not have the final word. God does. For more from Contending for the Word Q&A please visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/contending-for-the-word-qa/

Romans 1:2 teaches that the gospel was promised beforehand through God's prophets in the Holy Scriptures. The gospel is not a human invention, a first-century novelty, or God's response to an unexpected problem. It rests on God's eternal purpose and His promise-keeping faithfulness. In this sermon, Dave Jenkins explains how the Old Testament progressively revealed God's saving promise, how the prophets pointed forward to Jesus Christ, and why the gospel cannot be separated from the authority and sufficiency of Scripture. The Bible presents one unified message of redemption, and every promise of salvation finds its fulfillment in Christ alone. Because God kept His greatest promise by sending His Son, Christians can trust every promise He has made. Cultures change, feelings rise and fall, and circumstances may confuse us, but the gospel stands because God has spoken in His holy, inspired, sufficient, and trustworthy Word.

Proverbs 28 presents a clear contrast between the righteous and the wicked. The wicked live in fear, reject God's law, pursue dishonest gain, and conceal their sin. The righteous walk with courage, integrity, generosity, and a willingness to confess and forsake their transgressions. In this episode, Dave Jenkins explains why righteousness brings confidence, why God's Word is the standard for truth and justice, and why integrity is more valuable than wealth. He also considers the importance of caring for the poor, pursuing justice, and trusting the Lord rather than our own understanding. Proverbs 28 ultimately points us to Jesus Christ, the perfectly righteous One who lived in complete obedience, demonstrated perfect justice, and showed compassion to those in need. Through faith in Christ, sinners are forgiven, shown mercy, and made righteous before God.

The sermon exhorts ministers to move beyond intellectual cleverness and emotionalism to preach the Word of God anointed with the Holy Spirit's fire. Drawing primarily from Jeremiah 23, it contrasts false prophets who speak their own dreams with true messengers who stand in God's counsel and deliver His word with divine weight and power. The speaker argues that effective ministry requires personal intimacy with God to receive specific guidance for each congregation, rather than relying on cultural trends or numerical success. True preaching is characterized by a burning urgency within the preacher, resulting in sermons that penetrate hearts and produce genuine revival. Ultimately, only God can impart this spiritual fire, which purifies the church and validates the quality of pastoral work at the judgment seat of Christ.
