Subject:  When the Lord Calls; How Will You Answer?

Keith contrasts the reactions of Zacharias, Mary, & Joseph when they were foretold of the birth of their children (John & Jesus) by the angel Gabriel.  Zacharias responded in disbelief (and was made dumb), Mary responded in wonderment & humility, and Joseph responded in love to Mary his wife.

Speaking the Truth

October 13, 2013

Bill McCarthy5-altBill McCarthy

Bill discusses how the elite in this world always challenge God, but God in His wisdom always prevails.   No problem is too difficult for God.

Text:  Matthew 22; Romans 5:12.

 

randyMc_1_cropRandy McCarthy

The world hates it when you tell the truth.   In Matthew 23, the Lord Jesus condemns the Pharisees and scribes for their hypocrisy, and states that judgment for all the righteous blood that had been shed from Abel to Zechariah (Zecharias) would come upon that generation.  Randy recounts the story of Zechariah, the brave prophet who was killed for speaking the truth, and who in his death prefigured the rejection and death of Christ.

Subject:  Standing Against the Mob

In this sermon, Randy recounts the story of the death of wicked king Ahab as foretold by Micaiah the prophet.  1 Kings 22.  Micaiah was hated by Ahab because he spoke the truth.   Micaiah prophesied that in battle only king Ahab would be killed, and the rest of his men scattered, and this came to pass even though king Ahab disguised himself as a common soldier.  Micaiah’s treatment by the king prefigured the suffering of Christ, and Micaiah’s prophecy was also fulfilled by Christ (strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered).

Old Testament Prophecy of Jesus

September 8, 2013

randyMc_1_cropRandy McCarthy

Introduction:  1Cor 15:1-8

On the day that Jesus was raised from the dead, He began opening the understanding of his disciples to the OT scriptures which foretold the suffering, death, burial and resurrection of Christ (Luke 24:13-47).

Randy examined several prophecies in the writings of Moses (first five books of the OT) that demonstrate a suffering and triumphant Messiah, including the seed of the woman in Genesis 3, the offering of Isaac in Genesis 22 and the eight day festival of Passover (Exodus 12, Leviticus 23).   With regard to the Passover, Jesus’s death was represented by the paschal lamb offered on the first day of the Passover feast and his glorified resurrection represented by the first fruits offering on the third day of the Passover feast (1 Cor 15:20).

Evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ

August 11, 2013

randyMc_1_cropRandy McCarthy

In this sermon, Randy continues his discussion of the authenticity and reliability of the New Testament, and identifies four facts accepted by essentially all historians, secular and Christian, concerning the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.   (Luke 24:13-35)

 

These facts are:

  1. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb owned by a member of the Sanhedrin;
  2. The tomb was discovered to be empty by a group of women;
  3. Multiple people with different backgrounds claimed to have personally encountered the resurrected Jesus; and
  4. The gospel preached by the early Christians was absolutely contrary to the disciples’ own expectations concerning the Messiah.

The best explanation for these and other facts is that God raised Jesus from the dead exactly as described in the NT Scriptures.
