Sermons – Cornerstone Christian Fellowship

Our last sermon as CCF will take us to the book of Acts to re-visit what makes a faithful church. The message is meant to encourage us as we enter a new year under our new name, and to keep our focus in the right place. The message is entitled, “Five Truths Found in a Faithful Church” and comes from Acts 20:28-32,…

Today we look at the birth of Jesus from three angles, studying the Word from Luke 2:1-7; Romans 5:6; and Galatians 4:3-5. We will also look briefly at the regulative principle of worship to explain our church position on holidays for the benefit of those who are new to CCF. Regulative Principle & Holidays? The Time of His Birth The Place of…

The Way of the Cross— Self-denial.— Cross bearing— FollowingII. Why Bear…

We continue our walk through the Gospel of Matthew in Matthew 16:21-23 and make some sense out of our Lord’s rebuke of Peter in which we hear the starling words, “Get behind me Satan.” — A New Time of Teaching Begins— Peter’s Presumption— Get Behind Me— Cross-less Christianity— Peter’s Error Public Reading: Romans 5:1-11; Benediction: Jude v.24-25 Matthew 16:21-23 21 From that time…

Our sermon is entitled, “Gospel of Matthew – Who do You say that I am?” We will look at a very controversial but key passage regarding the Lord’s church, Matthew 16:13-20. Our outline should give you a flavor of what we will learn. I. Who do you say that I am?II. The Rock, who or what is it?—— Roman Catholic view—— Early…

We go again to the Gospel of Matthew for our message, entitled “Interpreting the Signs Around Us.” We enter into the great Chapter 16, perhaps the key chapter of the whole gospel. We will see yet another confrontation with the religious leaders and learn how they themselves serve as a ‘sign of the times.’ How do we think about our own times?…

Today we dive into Matthew 15:29-39 Public Reading: Isaiah 55:1-9; Benediction: 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Matthew 15:29-39 29 Jesus went on from there and walked beside the Sea of Galilee.

Public Reading: Luke 18:1-8; Benediction: Ephesians 6:24 Matthew 15:21-28 21 And Jesus went away from there and withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon. 22 And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and was crying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely oppressed by a demon.” 23 But he did not answer her a word.…

Public Reading: Psalm 15; Benediction: Hebrews 13:20-21 Matthew 15:1-20 15:1 Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said, 2 “Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders?

Today we will cover Matthew 14:22-36 and will find the disciples in yet another tight spot requiring faith. Here we witness Jesus’ teaching and training of the disciples as he sends them out to sea alone. We will learn about the role of trials and what faith is. Our outline is: I. Alone in the Hills – 3 Reasons— Weariness— Forceful Kingship—…
