The Significance of Christ
We will worship God more profoundly at Christmas when we understand the great need provided for in the coming of Christ as our ultimate Prophet, Priest & King.
Enjoying the Presents Without Missing the Gift
We should be clear in our hearts and minds that all the common grace that God dispenses in our lives at Christmas should not diffuse our focus on the grace provided to us in Christ which saves us for eternity!
Should We Be Expecting a Newer Testament?
The Christ of the New Testament has provided and communicated all we need, not only to secure our perfect redemption, but for all the problems we & our world face!
Why Don't We Have A Temple?
The OT tabernacle & temples were only representative of God’s dwelling in Heaven. Today there is no “representative house of God”, but only God “dwelling” in the members of his Church by the Person of the Holy Spirit.
Why Don't We Have Priests?
The perfect Christ has established for us perfect access to the Father; a perfect and lasting priestly act that was accomplished without Levites, but in the order of Melchizedek.
Turning to the Law Offices of Melchizedek
Our only hope of justification (as sinners before a holy God) is to cling to the mediatorial work of Christ who perfectly and sympathetically intercedes for us.
Longing for the Next Advent of Emmanuel
The OT saints eagerly anticipated the arrival of Immanuel, and so should we! because we’ve yet to experience the incredible fulfillment of Christ’s personal leadership in our world.
Setting Our Sights on a Lifetime of Serving Christ
Being a lifelong follower of Christ is the expectation of the genuine Christian life. Leaders have modeled it for us and Christ has given us the ultimate example!
The Next World Order
Christ has established his right to rule over everything and everyone, and one day he will. Until then we should trust him, do right & not whine.
The Ultimate Son
Jesus fulfills and occupies the three most important roles a “human” can hold; as God’s Son he serves as our perfect prophet, king and priest before the Father.
Jesus, Da Vinci & Mrs. Christ
Contrary to a growing popular opinion, Jesus was not married, there was not a cover up and the Bible can be trusted as a reliable historical account of Christ’s life.
Happy Hanukkah
This Christmas we should reaffirm our decision to follow the greatest Deliverer of all and then celebrate that deliverance with great joy!
Living In Light of Our Resurrection
The best is yet to come for those whose hope is in the power of our Captain to save us and sustain us.
