The Risen Christ Enthroned [Acts 2:22-36]

April 5, 2026

Sermon Notes

Date: 04/05/2026, Easter Sunday

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Key Text: Acts 2:22-36

Description:

What does Easter actually mean?

Is it simply that Jesus is alive…

…or is it something far greater?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Resurrection Sunday 2026, Pastor Monty Simao takes us to the book of Acts —

where the apostle Peter stands and declares with bold clarity:

The Jesus who was crucified
has been raised by God,
exalted to His right hand,
and made both Lord and Christ.

This is not merely the announcement of life after death.

This is the declaration of a King enthroned.

The cross was not the end.
The resurrection was not the finale.

It was the coronation.

Because the first sermon ever preached about Easter didn’t stop at the empty tomb—

…it pointed
to the throne.

The King Revealed at the Jordan [Matthew 3:13-17]

March 29, 2026

Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 03/29/2026, Palm Sunday

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Matthew

Key Text: Matthew 3:13-17

Description:

What kind of King
receives a crown…

by stepping into the water?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast,
Pastor Monty Simao continues our study
in the Gospel of Matthew, where the King is revealed
at the Jordan.

John calls sinners
to repent.

And then—

the sinless One arrives.

Not to stand apart…
but to step in.

“To fulfill all righteousness.”

And as He rises—

the heavens open,
the Spirit descends,
and the Father declares:

“This is my beloved Son.”

Before the crown…
before the cross…
before the palms —

the King is revealed.

Because the King
who comes to save His people—

first stands
in their place.
