You Were Born Again
Cary Cox, from 1 Peter 1:23-25. What does it mean to be born again? How do we experience the rebirth? Peter sets this spiritual experience before our eyes, showing us that we are reborn for the purpose of loving our church family, and we are reborn through the preaching of God’s word, the gospel of Christ!
The Difference Jesus Makes
Cary Cox, from 1 John 3:7-10. Why did Jesus come into the world as a Man? He appeared to destroy the works of the devil! He came to end the great war that was running through the pages of the Bible; to crush the serpent’s head! His accomplishment at the cross is applied to us in the new birth, as God miraculously transforms us from the inside out!
