markwMark Wattenbarger focuses on the letter to the Church of Ephesus.  In the midst of divine culture, with all manner of influences; the scripture teaches us to walk worthy of our vocation (Eph 4:1-2), and to put forward the effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit (Eph 4:3).

Speaking the Truth

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).
