Jesus Revealed

Cary Cox, from Mark 1:9-11. At the Baptism of Jesus, He is officially revealed to Israel as the Messiah! Mark continues to connect Jesus and the beginning of His ministry to the OT Scriptures. We see the Persons of the Trinity at Jesus’ baptism.

Preparing for God

Cary Cox, from Mark 1:1-9a. Mark connects his gospel of Jesus with the prophecies of the Old Testament. They predicted a messenger who would prepare the way for God. John the Baptist came and prepared the way for Jesus! The passages of the OT about Yahweh God are consistently applied to Jesus by the NT writers. We must prepare through repentance and receive Jesus!

The Ongoing Work of God

Cary Cox, from Genesis 43 and 44. God continues to work in the hearts of Joseph’s brothers, leading them to repentance. The brothers are growing and maturing and responding to God. There is hope for sinners because of the work of God’s grace!

Dealing with Sin

Cary Cox, from Genesis 42. After over 20 years, Joseph’s brothers stand before him! Joseph tests his brothers, and through his tests, God softens their hearts and deals with their sin. The Lord loves us so much that he leads us to repentance, and deals with our sins once and for all in Christ!

The Unchanging God – Mickey McCall

Mickey McCall, from Malachi 3:6. In our changing world, God is the Rock who does not change. All of his attributes are also immutable. But our response to the unchanging God is that we must change! We must be changed by the unchanging God.

Run the Race – Hebrews Study 33

Cary Cox, from Hebrews 12:1-3. God calls his people to throw away everything that slows us down, and turn from sin which strangles us, so that we may run this race of faith with all our hearts! With Christ before our eyes, encouraging us, we endure to the end!

Kingdom60 – The Requirement of Repentance – Mat11 20-24

Kingdom35 – Prepare for the Kingdom – Matt3

Pastor Cary Cox, from Matthew 3:1-12.

Imagine a time when no one had heard of Jesus Christ! Suddenly, after 400 years of silence from God, a man in the desert begins to shout about repentance. God’s kingdom is breaking into this world! We look at the link between God’s kingdom and his judgment of sinners. Repent!
