On Freedom in Christ and the Parable of the Forgiving Father Oct 28, 2019

Show notes

“Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, ‘If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.’ Instead of responding to his words as the good news they are, Jesus’ hearers are offended. They buck at the idea that anyone has to set them free. “We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, ‘You will become free’?” (John 8:31–33).

Confessing the Father's Confession About the Son Oct 25, 2019

Show notes

“Just admit it; we know it was you!” “How long since your last confession?” “Do you solemnly swear that you will tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?” These are all examples of calls to confess the truth where the one confessing the truth is left on their own to formulate the words. But, when it comes to confessing the truth of the Christian faith, Christians are given the words. We don’t have to formulate them ourselves.

A Look at 2 Peter 2: Has God Truly Said? Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

2 Peter 2:1-21 continues the thought that began in 2 Peter 1:16. In this passage, Peter assures his audience that the gospel of Jesus Christ is trustworthy, being amply supported by witnesses of his ministry, his death, and his resurrection.

A Gracious Invitation Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

I’ve got a confession to make. I’m not very good at praying. Sure, I pray regularly for my church, my family, and for those who are sick and in need. I’m a pastor, so obviously, I do a lot of praying, but I wouldn’t say I’m particularly good at it - not like those “prayer warriors,” you sometimes see in other churches or on TV.

Our Savior Today Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

The temptation is always there to let our imaginations run wild. It’s easy for us to imagine all the ways things can go wrong. Fear about what has, and what does, and what might go wrong can cripple us. It can crush our spirit. Our whole life can be shut down when we let our imaginations run wild.

Christ's Limitless Atonement Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

Terror and even hatred of God are the only things with which divine hiddenness can leave us, since the only thing that can be known about this God is that he is free and sovereign over all things
