  • Forty Plus Ten - Week 3: Purpose

    Forty Plus Ten - Week 3: Purpose
    2025/12/03

    Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:6-8, Acts 1:15, Matthew 28:16, Matthew 28:20, 1 Peter 3:15, 2 Peter 3:18, 1 Peter 4:11

    During the forty days between Jesus' resurrection and His ascension, Jesus saw many individuals and small groups, but He also saw over five hundred people at one time. Where was it, and when did Jesus see this large group of people?

    Jesus kept showing up…
    ⁃ Jerusalem
    ⁃ Emmaus
    ⁃ Mount of Olives
    ⁃ Galilee (Pastor shares why he thinks that Jesus may have been in Galilee when He saw the 500. Pastor shares several pictures of the area around Galilee.)

    Those Jesus appeared to had a heart to share the amazing news after seeing Jesus truly was alive.

    Because Jesus is alive - because there are convincing proofs - what does that mean for our lives?
    ⁃ sharing the Gospel message
    ⁃ Obeying what Jesus had commanded

    APPLICATIONS
    ⁃ Purpose: Testimony - The One who rose, changes our lives and He is coming back! Peter's testimony - 1 Peter 3:15 "but in your hearts revere Christ as lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." When God has changed our lives through Jesus Christ, that gives us a testimony, it gives us purpose to share our personal testimony with friends, family, strangers. Our testimony isn't just what we say, it's how we live, too.

    ⁃ Purpose: Maturity - We are to grow in our faith, in our witness, in our knowledge of the living God, and not remain baby believers. 2 Peter 3:18 "But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever! Amen." We are not saved because we are mature, but rather it is because we're saved, we want to mature. We don't; want to remain baby believers, we want to grow up in Christ. And that gives Him glory, Our purpose is anchored and centered in the Lord Jesus Christ, our risen King. And we are to keep on maturing.

    ⁃ Purpose: Service - We are called to service Him with the gifts He has given us, with the time He has given us, with the opportunities and settings He has given us, 1 Peter 4:11 "If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen." Speak the words of God and bring joy and hope, conviction and power into the lives of others. And serve them in God's strength so that He is praised through the witness we share of Jesus and who He is. Be encouraged to serve Him with the gifts you've been given., to serve Him with your lives, your talents, your examples and in the opportunities He provides.

    Our purpose is to live for Him - Not for ourselves - but for HIM!

    Today, people are coming to faith in the Lord Jesus like never before, faith in Christ is exploding. And we are called to be part of that!!

  • Kings & Prophets: From Solomon to Jeremiah - Week 12

    Kings & Prophets: From Solomon to Jeremiah - Week 12
    2025/12/02

    Our story picks up with Joash (the hidden royal) being brought forth at the age of seven and hailed as the king of Judah followed by the death of Athaliah. Peace reigns in Judah as we see over 100 years of four fairly "good" kings reigning in Judah from 835-731 B.C. These kings started well but didn't always finish well: Joash, Amaziah, Uzziah and Jotham.

    King Joash
    ⁃ Takes the kingship at age 7
    ⁃ Jehoiada, the High Priest, is Joash's mentor, advisor and instructor
    ⁃ Spiritual reformation was taking place across Judah as Joash starts out so well with Jehoiada as his advisor - until Jehoiada's death
    ⁃ Joash then gets new advisors (2 Chronicles 24:17-18) and they led him astray, worshiping idols and God's anger came.
    ⁃ Zechariah is the High Priest after Jehoiada. Zechariah was Jehoiada's son. He tells Joash and his new advisors of their sin against God, so they plot to kill him. 2 Chronicles 24:20. Zechariah is stoned to death.
    ⁃ Hazael is victorious in bottles over Judah
    ⁃ Then Joash's assignation follows

    Amaziah
    ⁃ Amaziah is Joash's son - Amaziah starts well but doesn't finish well, following the pattern of his father.
    ⁃ Mercenaries come from Israel
    ⁃ Amaziah is given victory as he acts on the words of God through a prophet. 2 Chronicles 25:9
    ⁃ But then Amaziah brings idols back from that victory. 2 Chronicles 25:15. Again a prophet comes to Amaziah to warn him, but this time Amaziah doesn't listen.
    ⁃ He is then defeated by Jehoash, king of Israel and he too is assassinated.

    King Uzziah (also known as Azariah)
    ⁃ Uzziah is Amaziah's son. 2 Chronicles 26:4-5 tells that he had godly counsel and as long as he sought the Lord, God gave him success.
    ⁃ He was an extremely capable king
    ⁃ Ruled for 52 years
    ⁃ In Israel, Jeroboam II was ruling. Uzziah and Jeroboam II expanded both nations to the original size of the kingdom at the time of David and Solomon.
    ⁃ New prophets arise during the reign of Jeroboam II and Uzziah: Jonah, Amos, Hosea and Isaiah
    ⁃ Their kingdoms experienced the glory days of David and Solomon
    ⁃ But then Uzziah does not finish well. His pride went to his head and he usurped the role of the priests in burning the incense and immediately gets leprosy. 2 Chronicles 26:16-17

    King Jotham
    ⁃ Uziah's son, Jotham becomes king of Judah. 2 Chronicles 27:2. He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, but the people, however, continued their corrupt practices.
    ⁃ Battle with the Ammonites - Godly king who is victorious over the Ammonites. 2 Chronicles 27:6
    ⁃ Prosperity & Spiritual decline begins. The renewal did not spread throughout all the people.
    ⁃ We see the growing power of their enemy in Assyria

    Next week our story continues with the rise of the power of the Assyrians.

  • Forty Plus Ten - Week 2: Pardon!

    Forty Plus Ten - Week 2: Pardon!
    2025/12/02
    Scripture: Acts 1:3, 1 Corinthians 15:3-8, Galatians 1:18-19, 1 Timothy 1:13-17. In today's study we take a look at a Credal Statement. What is a Credal Statement? ⁃ It is a fundamental of faith ⁃ It enable people to talk about what they know and believe ⁃ It is easily memorized ⁃ It is easily understood ⁃ It is easily shared Paul says in 1 Corinthians 15:3-5 "What I received I passed on to you. And it is the most important of all. Here is what it is. Christ died for our sins, just as Scripture said he would. He was buried. He was raised from the dead on the third day, just as Scripture said he would be. He appeared to Peter. Then he appeared to the 12 apostles." (The Credal Statement in bold.) Then Paul continues with verses 6-8, "After that, he appeared to more than 500 brothers and sisters at the same time. Most of them are still living. But some have died. He appeared to James. Then he appeared to all the apostles. Last of all, he also appeared to me. I was like someone who wasn't born at the right time." Paul mentions three men in these verses: Peter, James (Jesus' 1/2 brother) and himself. 2000 years later we have evidences of authenticity: There is convincing physical evidence of Peter's home in Jerusalem. Pastor shares pictures. There is a bone box, The James Ossuary, which has also been discovered and has an inscription, "James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus." The basic consensus of scholarly opinion is that this is very likely authentic. Who were these men? Peter: denied Jesus publicly three times James: his brother, was an unbeliever - did not believe Jesus was who He was, and James ridiculed his brother Jesus Paul: persecuted and killed believers and denounced Jesus Who did they become? ⁃ Peter became an apostle of Christ and bold preacher of God's Word. Even arrest, beatings, and threats didn't lessen Peter's determination to preach the risen Christ. ⁃ James, after seeing Jesus risen from the grave, became a believer and also became the leader of the early Christian church in Jerusalem. ⁃ Paul was born Saul and he persecuted believers, but after meeting Jesus on a walk to Damascus Saul became Paul the Apostle and defender of the Gospel. What did these three have in common? ⁃ They had all failed Jesus ⁃ A denier ⁃ A radical ⁃ A persecutor ⁃ All come to faith in the Risen Lord ⁃ Their lives are changed ⁃ They give powerful testimonies to Christ's love for all sinners What else do they have in common? ⁃ The PARDON of Christ - Forgiveness in full. ⁃ Each of their stories is a story of redemption in Jesus and a testimony that not a single one of us is beyond the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁃ In these three men we see that God saved the worst of us so that He might save all of us. Their changed lives are a testimony to the heart of God wanting us all. How do their stories speak to us today? Applications of the Pardon of God ⁃ Christ's mercy and grace is for us too - 1 Timothy 1:13-14 "I used to speak evil things against Jesus. I tried to hurt his followers. I really pushed them around. But God showed me mercy anyway. I did those things without knowing any better. I wasn't a believer. Our Lord poured out more and more of his grace on me. Along with it came faith and love from Christ Jesus." ⁃ Christ's saving power is for us too - 1 Timothy 1:15 "Here is a saying that you can trust. It should be accepted completely. Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. And I am the worst sinner of all." ⁃ Nothing we have done can cause Jesus not to want to win us over to Himself ⁃ Nothing that would cause Him to say He's done with us ⁃ God wants ALL to be saved. ⁃ Christ's patient renewal is for us too- 1 Timothy 1:16 "But for that very reason, God showed me mercy. And I am the worst of sinners. He showed me mercy so that Christ Jesus could show that he is very patient. I was an example for those who would come to believe in him. Then they would receive eternal life." Incredible Love - Incredible Grace - Incredible Pardon And Jesus' mercy and grace, saving power, patient renewal and incredible love are for us, too! Paul, Peter and James were living examples of God's incredible grace - we too are living examples of His incredible grace. Pardon - God offers pardon, forgiveness to all who will repent and believe in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and we become the children of God…. FOREVER!! Now What?
