One of the paradoxes of Christianity is that the grand and glorious Cross is both a place of life and of death, a place of victory and of suffering. It is this Cross that all history hangs upon—the epicenter of history. In this message, Eric Ludy examines this epicenter and declares that it is Christ and Him crucified that must remain at the center of our lives. The secret to Christianity, to understanding the Scriptures, and to living a victorious Christian life all comes down to a focus of the simplicity that is in Christ (2 Corinthians 11:3). This sermon is a study in the single most important thing of all time—Jesus Himself.
In ancient Israel, during times of rebellion, the people set up high places as an alternative worship and to seek help and salvation in someone or something other than God Himself. Why would anyone ever build a high place? It is because they believed the lie that salvation is found in more than One Place—and in today’s culture we often do the same thing. High places today may not be altars or poles, but we do often build high places in the health, financial, comfort, intelligence, relational, and religious areas of our lives. In this illuminating and convicting sermon, Pastor Eric Ludy examines the areas we often set up as counterfeit means of salvation and explains that the high place of “self” must be removed so that One Place (Jesus Christ and the Cross) becomes our sole means of salvation.
Coming off the heels of the presidential election in America, Pastor Eric Ludy examines the historic election—not of presidential canadites but one of the most divisive chapters in Scripture: Romans nine. With candid insight, Pastor Ludy tackles this challenging chapter and explains how God’s election in Scripture is centered upon one crucial subject—and if we get this wrong, we will misinterpret the entire passage. Using Paul’s reasoning and context throughout Romans 3-8, Pastor Ludy explains how we must approach and understand Romans 9. Wherever you side doctrinally, this study in Romans nine, will challenge and encourage you to keep your focus on what’s most important.
