Speaking the Truth
October 13, 2013
Bill 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.
Randy 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.

Randy McCarthy
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
Randy 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
Randy 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:
- Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb owned by a member of the Sanhedrin;
- The tomb was discovered to be empty by a group of women;
- Multiple people with different backgrounds claimed to have personally encountered the resurrected Jesus; and
- 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.

Authenticity of the New Testament
August 4, 2013
Bill McCarthy
Subject: (Introduction) – The Holiness of Jesus
Text: 1Timothy 4:16
Randy McCarthy
Subject: The Authenticity and Reliability of the New Testament.
Randy cites to the early Christian creed in 1 Cor 15:1-8 and the writings of several secular historians and church fathers that confirm the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. From these and other evidences it is conclusive that the New Testament books we have today were written before the close of the first century AD and accurately reflect real events that took place exactly as described in the Bible. Statements by scoffers today that Jesus probably didn’t ever live at all, and that the NT books were written hundreds of years later, are absolutely false and cannot be reasonably supported by the overwhelming evidence that proves otherwise.
