Enter the Eternal Promised Land

December 19, 2021 - 4th Sunday of Advent

Joshua 1:1-9; 1 Pet 1:3-9; Heb 3:1-4:13 — Are we ready to enter the eternal promised land? When we consider God’s promises about the promised land for Israel and our own inheritance in heaven, we will steward our most important faith with the greatest care and look forward with anticipation to the revealing of Jesus Christ in his final advent.

Jesus is the Word—Live Right, Be Holy

June 23 2019

Matthew 5:17-20 — Jesus fulfills God’s Word. Jesus is the Word. God’s Word is eternal. Therefore, to follow Jesus we must obey the Word to live right, be good, and live the kingdom life. This is possible because we stand in the righteousness of Christ, because the Holy Spirit gave us new hearts, new hearts with God’s will written on them, new hearts that desire to do God’s will out of reverence and love for God.

This is part of our series, Living the Kingdom Life, based on the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5-7.
