Jesus is the center of all scripture! The amazing thing that did not happen at the cross will change the way you live and breath for the rest of your life! My prayer is your life will be eternally held in Jesus. Amen!!! This sermon was learned from pastor Ivor Myers “What did not happen…
We’ve heard that Jesus loves us and has called us friend (Jn 15:15a). In this message I explore the idea further. Why did God originally create man? What is the end goal of man’s salvation? Is the plan to take us back to the original relationship that was in the Garden of Eden? The Apostle…
1 John 4:16 declares that God is Love. The very essence of who God is, is Love. Jesus came to show us the Father. To show us God’s Love for humanity. He demonstrated this incredible love by going to the cross on our behalf. When we talk about Amazing Grace, we should all kneel in…

But Matthew in his gospel describes Jesus the Messiah as dramatically changing our human understanding of who God is and what His kingdom is like. Jesus, in the sermon on the mount, assured the people of that time and ours that He had not come to…
