Judges 2:10 says, “There arose another generation who did not know the Lord or the work that he had done for Israel.” This is why the nation of Israel went from victories to defeats. The historical books of the Bible read almost like one book, with each book serving as a chapter of a larger […]

In Colossians chapter 2, verses 11 through 14, we see many things Jesus is willing to do for us. Jesus is willing to give us victory over sin: “In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ” (verse 11).

Physical circumcision always prefigured, or foreshadowed, the true and greater circumcision God wanted, which was spiritual circumcision of the heart. Spiritual circumcision of the heart occurs when people repent and put their faith in Christ and are saved. Consider these verses: Colossians 2:11 says, ” In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made […]

With baptisms coming up on Easter I preached on evidences of salvation. I wanted to help equip families to determine whether their children should be baptized, because we are credobaptists who believe they must first be saved.

Jesus took our place on the cross and His substitutionary atonement is demonstrated beautifully when He died in the place of Barabbas, a notorious sinner. Matthew 27:26, says, “Then Pilate released Barabbas to them; and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.” I’d like you to put yourself in Barabbas’s place. […]

Proverbs 22:6 says, “Train up your children in the way they should go,” but as parents we must go that way ourselves to avoid being hypocrites. We desire the best for our children. We want them to embrace the Gospel and follow the Lord at the earliest possible time in their lives. Our children face […]

Jonah is a type of Christ. Jesus taught that the Old Testament is about Him (Luke 24:27). Jonah serves as one of the clearest types and shadows of Christ. When Jesus was asked for a sign, He staked His death, burial, and resurrection on the prophet. Additionally, the storm the disciples experienced with Jesus in […]

John the Baptist commanded the multitudes to bear fruit worthy of repentance (Matthew 3:8 and Luke 3:8). This verse helps reveal the most common reason people fail regarding repentance. They put off without putting on. They stop the sin without starting the accompanying behavior God wants. Manasseh, the evilest king of Judah, surprisingly is a […]
