Sermon Overview: We see a glimpse of Jesus' divine glory when he institutes the Lord's Supper (also known as Holy Communion). It is a miracle that only God can bring about, given purely as a blessing for those that truly believe it, and because it is God's word, we hold tightly to it.

Sermon Overview: When Jesus died on the cross, the temple curtain, which was the barrier to the most sacred part of the temple, was torn apart. Through the tearing of the curtain we see that Jesus is the High Priest and we are priests, so we have direct access to God and Christ is our intercessor. Jesus' death also got rid of the Old Covenant and brought us into the New Covenant.

Sermon Overview: The old covenant, which was given to the people of Israel in the Old Testament, was never meant to save anyone, so God gave us the new covenant. While the new covenant can be summarized as the good news of salvation in Christ, it is important to note that God has done all of the work for our salvation.

Sermon Overview: For three hours while Jesus hung dying on the cross, there was a supernatural darkness that covered all the land. This miraculous event is tremendous proof of Jesus' deity, as it shows the impending death of the one who spoke "Let there be light" during creation, and it shows God the father judging his innocent son in place of all mankind.

Sermon Overview: Jesus used the object lesson of Moses and the bronze serpent to teach Nicodemus that faith is obedience to God. Three years later after Jesus' death on the cross, Nicodemus clung in faith to Jesus as his savior.

Sermon Overview: While hanging a cross beside Jesus, a dying criminal makes a true confession of faith. Jesus then promised and assured the criminal that he was going to Heaven when he died. It is through that confession and promise we get another glimpse of Jesus' full glory and deity.

Sermon Overview: Jesus' words and actions from when he first cleansed the temple are often misunderstood. It may seem like he was being excessive, or that he was being elusive when answering those who questioned him. However, we should use this account to remind ourselves that God is serious about sin and will not have the church distracted from his saving purpose. We should also remember that the true temple is the invisible church of all believers.

Sermon Overview: During Jesus' trial at the Sanhedrin, Pilate's wife is given a prophetic dream, which causes her suffering and leads her to warn her husband to leave Jesus alone. Her warning reveals Christ's true righteousness and makes it clear that he is the standard by which God measures all people. We also recognize God has given us an invitation to trust in Jesus as our savior, since we don't measure up to that standard on our own.

Sermon Overview: Jesus explained that he would die on the cross and then rise again, but Peter did not understand and initially rejected what Jesus said. Jesus rebuked Peter and then told his followers to take up their crosses and follow him. That message applies to us today, but if, like Peter, we don't understand the crosses in our lives, we may reject them.
