Saints are those who have been made holy by God’s grace and live in devotion to Him. In heaven, they worship together, their focus completely on God, finding shelter and satisfaction in His presence. Through faith in Christ, we are invited to join this great multitude, united in worship and sustained by the Lamb who is also our Shepherd. Message based on Revelation 1:1, 7:9-17, 21:1-8

Quotes:
Eugene Peterson: Revelation is about worship... If we keep company with John in this book using our intelligence and imagination our worship of God will almost certainly deepen in urgency and joy.

Julie Payne: I promised God I would sing a hymn of praise every time I perform. If you knew where I was when he found me, you would realize that Psalm 121 was the most appropriate song I sang.

Alistair Begg: If there were no them, there would be no us. The ones who are in Heaven today had Heaven in them here.

Para quitar esta confusión, Pablo explica tres verdades sobre el Evangelio: Es de Dios, es el cumplimento del plan eterno de Dios, y está revelado en las escrituras. Mensaje basado en Romanos 1:1-4.

Identity is found in knowing who Jesus is and living in a way that honors His name. When we trust in Him, we discover that our worth, purpose, and future are secure on the unshakable foundation of Christ, the Rock. Message based on Matthew 16:13-20

Quotes:

C.S. Lewis: You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher.

Faith grows strongest in those who refuse to give up, trusting God even when the answer seems distant. When we keep believing through silence and struggle, we find that God’s love reaches beyond every boundary and draws us into His family through grace. Message based on Matthew 15:21-28; Ephesians 2:12-18

Quotes:

Robert Murray McCheyne: Learn that urgency in prayer does not so much consist in vehement pleading, as in vehement believing. He that believes most the love and power of Jesus will obtain the most in prayer.

Charles Spurgeon: Brethren, be great believers. Little faith will bring your souls to heaven, but great faith will bring heaven to your souls.

J.I. Packer: Adoption is the highest privilege of the gospel. The traitor is forgiven, brought in for supper and given the family name. It is greater than justification. To be right with God the Judge is a great thing, but to be loved and cared for by God the Father is even greater.

True worship flows from a heart fully surrendered to God. It’s not a transaction to earn His favor but a transformation that changes who we are. When we draw near to Him in sincerity, our rituals become revelation, and our traditions become truth alive. Message based on Matthew 15:1-20

Quotes:

Dallas Willard: The Bible uses the words "heart", "will", and "spirit" interchangeably. It's why when we say "His heart wasn't in it," or "he didn't have the will," or "he lost his spirit," we're saying the same thing.

William Temple: Worship is the submission of all our nature to God. It is the quickening of conscience by His holiness; the nourishment if mind with His truth; the purifying of imagination by His beauty; the opening of the heart to His love; the surrender of will to His purpose — and all of this gathered up in adoration, the most selfless emotion of which our nature is capable and therefore the chief remedy for that self-centeredness which is our original sin and the source of all actual sin.

Jack Gray: Because when you are bumped you spill what you are full of...
