Grace Fellowship Sermons

Seth was the son born to Adam and Eve following the tragic murder of Abel by his brother Cain. Today, we will see that Seth represents more than just a new son for his grieving parents; he also foreshadows Christ. As we continue our exploration of 'Unfolding the Mystery of Christ in the Old Testament,' we will uncover how Seth points to the coming of our Savior.

We continue to discover pictures of Christ through the profiles of Old Testament people. Last we began with Adam to saw how Christ repaired our relationship as the “second Adam.” Today we will continue Unfolding the Mystery of Christ in the Old Testament.

Today, we embark on a 10-week journey to discover how the Old Testament Scriptures reveal the profound and timeless truths of Jesus Christ, embedded in the stories of people from the very beginning.

Those who have been purchased by God have a litany of benefits that are theirs because of the steadfast love of the Lord. Psalm 103 lists out these mind-boggling and nearly endless benefits which results in the praise and worship of the great God.

Over the last five weeks, we have seen the intention of the Father in the character and priorities of Jesus. Today, we will finish examining the 14 events beginning at His baptism and before traveling back to His hometown, Nazareth.

Jesus' intentionality is shocking. There are no accidental interactions or random actions; Jesus does what the Heavenly Father wants. So, not only are Jesus' character and priorities revealed, but the very intention of the Father is also revealed in Christ's life.

As we continue to explore the events that occurred between Luke 4:15 and Jesus’ visit to Nazareth (4:16), we see a fascinating unveiling of Jesus in both His character and priorities. It is during this time that the disciples begin to realize that He is the Messiah of God.

We value asking questions to better understand how to live life in a God-centered, Christ-exalting way. We believe that church should be the best place in which people can get solid answers to life’s questions from God’s Word. 1. (01:10) My sister committed suicide over ten years ago. We didn't think she had a relationship with Christ, but her employer told us that she had recently gotten saved. What does the Bible say about suicide and where a Christian who has committed suicide will spend eternity? 2. (12:32) What does the Bible say about cremation? Is it wrong for Christians to choose cremation? 3. (22:42) How do I know I am a Christian? I struggle to find the balance between realizing I don’t live the type of life that Christ would approve I am not perfect. However, I also know that the Father accepts me based on Christ’s life, death, and resurrection in my place. I feel the tension in these two perspectives and want to get a better handle on how I should think about this.

We're pressing on with our exploration of the initial phase of Jesus' ministry. In these 18 to 21 months leading up to His selection of the Apostles, Jesus unveils the fundamental traits of His character and priorities, setting the stage for His claim to be the Messiah of God.

To fear God is to simultaneously draw near to Him in awe while also shrinking back in reverential fear. It expresses itself through obedient submission to God's will and His ways. Those who truly fear the Lord have tasted and seen that He is good!
