Cornerstone Baptist Church of Jefferson City

Ken Koffer • Mark 11:1-11

Jeff Patridge • Luke 9:51

Brian Credille • John 19:17-24 • One of the really amazing things that happened the day Jesus died on the cross is that He was declared by Pilate to be a King. Jesus is the King of Kings! The declaration unknowingly made by Pilate is truth that still resounds today. That declaration was written on a sign in three languages.

Brian Credille • Matthew 27:45-46 • As Jesus hung on the cross for six hours, the first three hours were filled with mockings and insults hurled his way in broad daylight. But then, for three hours, darkness descended on the earth as Jesus completed the awful and amazing Sacrifice for our sin. What was that three hours of darkness all about?

Brian Credille • John 19:30 • The words spoken by Jesus just before He died on the cross are some of the most important words in all of history. They are important because of the meaning they convey -- "It is finished." What was finished, what was accomplished through the death of Jesus Christ?

Andy Vecellio • 2 John • The first century Church, like the Church throughout the last two thousand years, was impacted by the infiltration of false teachers and false teachings. To protect against the infiltration of false teachings into the local body of believers, it is critical that we know, protect, and walk in the truth. Unconditional love and acceptance of people without proper discernment for the truth can have significant damaging impacts. In 2 John, the apostle John writes to warn believers of the acceptance of false teachers and to encourage the recipients to live a life consistent with the truth of the Gospel.

Brian Credille • Matthew 27:29 • One of the horrific things Jesus experienced as He took the steps that led to the Cross was the crown of thorns. What meaning and significance does that crown convey?

Brian Credille • John 18:15-18, 25-27, 21:7-19 • God's people have always had to face the fires of temptation and persecution. What are we to do after having failed? Peter was an average man who had been blessed to live and walk with Jesus for three years. But Peter, too, knew what it was to fail when tested. Let us learn from him.

Brian Credille • John 7:1-13 • It is human nature to complain or grumble. We know that, and we experience that in our own lives. So did Jesus. Yes, Jesus! In this passage we see various kinds of people who complained and debated about Jesus.
