Sermon Audio

Jesus defines THE truth and describes His authority in the face of hostile powers vying for authority. Important worldview questions are at stake - and God provides His passover Lamb

During the events of Jesus’ arrest, we witnessed His power, His care for His disciples, and His resolve to drink the cup the Father had given Him. As we move into John 18:12-27, we will once again see these attributes displayed in the questioning of Jesus, but in this section the focus shifts to another interrogation. While Jesus is being questioned inside, Peter is being questioned outside. The contrast between these two interrogations couldn’t be more obvious. Peter fails miserably and denies the Lord he promised to follow even unto death.

This Sunday, we won’t be hearing a "don’t be like Peter" sermon. The problem is that we already are like Peter in so many ways. Yet Jesus stood firm for Peter knowing that at that moment Peter was outside denying Him. Instead of simply saying, "Let’s do better than Peter," we will examine why Peter (who clearly loved Jesus) failed so badly. As we diagnose his disease from Scripture, we find insight into our own life of standing for Christ in an ungodly world. We will see not just that we must stand and confess Jesus, but how we are able to do so - and in this we find the source of our Christian walk.

God establishes His covenant with Noah and creation. He gives a law to protect human life.

Having completed His teaching and prayer for the disciples, the hour of Jesus has come. He is arrested in the garden. Yet Jesus is in control of this situation. He is the almighty God, the Good Shepherd, and The Obedient Son.

How the early church discipled the massive amount of people who were saved under the Apostle's ministry in Jerusalem. They discipled one another through Worshiping, Connecting, Serving

Noah finds grace in the eyes of the Lord, though the entire earth is plunged into violence and wickedness. Even the line of Seth has intermarried and been corrupted. Yet God declares both judgment upon the wicked and a covenant with Noah.

Jesus prays for the church through the ages who would believe through the Apostles' word. He prays here for us, and His prayer is that we would be one just as the Father and Son are one - and that we would be one IN the Father and Son.

Wickedness fills the earth and now even the godly line of Seth is corrupted by intermarrying indiscriminately. Yet even now, Noah finds grace and God's promise is not revoked.
