    Death Has Been Defeated

     | 2,377 views

    Although his enemies tried, they could not hold Christ in the grave.

    They did everything they could. They left nothing up to chance, making sure to take every precaution they could. Yes, they had killed the man. Yes, they had heard when he cried that he gave up his spirit; they had seen the water and the blood flow out of his side. For anyone else, that would’ve ...read more

    The Resurrection Series

    Contributed by Gary Moore on Feb 4, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,908 views

    Matthew’s account of the resurrection. Matthew’s narrative of e Galilean encounter with the disciples is a culmination to the gospel which accentuates the Trinitarian nature of God and the mission of the believer.

    He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. The gospels each relate the account of the resurrection according to their own purpose, consequently there are considerable differences between the Gospels (refer to the recent bulletin insert for a harmonization of those events), but with all the ...read more

    The purpose of this message is to inspire you to go to the next level in God for your life. Since Jesus is alive, and He is, then if you go to the tomb you will not find him there. He is a living Christ and you cannot find him in dead things. So many th

    The disciples look for the body of Jesus, but He is not there! He has already gone on ahead of them somewhere, just as He continues to keep moving beyond our reach!...

    When I went to seminary - to Moore College in Newtown - there was a resident chapel there known as the Cash Chapel (named after the guy who donated it, not after how he paid for it). Now when people set up a church building or a chapel, they tend to design it with the communion table at the centre, ...read more

    It’s amazing what a brief description we’re given of such a world changing event, isn’t it? Here’s Jesus Christ, the Son of God, coming back to life after being crucified by the Jewish and Roman authorities and all we get are three verses of terse almost bare boned narrative. There was an ...read more

    What Do You Say On The First Sunday?

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Aug 29, 2009

    Standing at the empty tomb is both an acknowledgment of a difficult past, and a charge to live into the new life offered in Christ Jesus.

    Well! Here we are, the moment many of us have been anticipating, or perhaps dreading, or maybe even a little of both for the last few months! No doubt, any expectations that any of us might have had about this day will be somewhat off or maybe even way off, but I pray that the excitement of new ...read more

    We all face obstacles (boulders) in our life. Sometimes these boulders become bigger than they actually are. This Easter Sermon encourages us to allow Jesus to be the one who deals with the boulders in our life.

    New things in our life changes a lot of things. Anyone ever had a new baby in their life? Do you remember the changes that it meant? What about a new home or a new school? Or perhaps a new boyfriend or girl friend? New things bring changes to our lives. And Christ’s resurrection changes things, ...read more
