Description: For 950 years, Noah walked with God. But in the last captured moment of his life, we read that he was drunk and naked and ridiculed by his own son… leaving many of us wondering: “What happened??? He was such a righteous man.”
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, we see that the Bible is careful to record sad events such as this in the lives of great men, to both warn us – lest we also fall – and for us to remember that God alone – not Noah – is the hero in this story (and in every story), and it is to Christ that we are to look.
Description: Most Christians don’t associate Easter with Passover. But with some study, one can see how they are beautifully interwoven into God’s perfect tapestry. The parallel of the Passover Lamb and our Lord Jesus — the perfect sacrificial Lamb of God — helps clarify in our minds the wonder of God’s plan for the salvation of believers.
Description: Easter morning typically is filled with sermons speaking about Christ’s resurrection from the grave. In this Easter sermon we move our focus onto those who are without a saving relationship to our resurrected Lord Jesus. The things of the world, and our own security in the world, tend to capture those who are unsaved. Our text reflects the very words of Jesus on this matter.
Description: Israel fails to take the land and this sets off 350 years of rapid decline. It’s a downward spiral of depravity as things go from bad to worse. God hears the cries of His people and over and over He sends a judge to rescue them. But when the judge dies, the people fall back into idolatry and rebellion…and so the cycle continues.
The anticipation is for a judge that will rule righteously and not die. And whose righteous rule will bring a time of peace and the possession of the land. That anticipation has been met in Christ who is the only righteous king and who alone obeyed the covenant for the prospering of His people.
Description: Every true gathering of Christians is a supernatural work of God. The church at Philippi was a joy to Paul and can be an encouragement to you and me. It’s a great adventure to follow Paul on his second missionary journey and learn about the Lord’s leading and blessing.
Description: After the wise men from the far East met young Jesus, they went home a different way. It’s a bit of a play on words, but even today, when someone meets Jesus, they go home a different way.
Description: Paul deals with the final issue in his appeal to Philemon by dealing with Onesimus’ outstanding debt. Paul is willing that the debt be written in his name and in that act, we see elements of the Gospel.
Description: Paul sends Onesimus who he describes as his son and his very heart back to Philemon. In this passage we see the transformation in the life of Onesimus and what God had done in him.
Description: This passage of Scripture from God’s Word gives us the answer to why we have Christmas. We will find that there have actually only been two men who have ever lived.
Description: In the midst of an impending attack by the Assyrians, Micah pronounces the good news of a coming King who will safeguard Israel from her enemies as He rules the nation as the Good Shepherd. This King will not only be a descendant of David but will come from long ago, from the days of eternity.
Description: As an introduction to the book of Philemon, we will explore what the Scriptures say about slavery in the Old Testament under the Mosaic Law, in the New Testament under Roman Law, and how those systems of slavery differed to that of the American South. Finally, we will look at how the Gospel offers good news to the slavery from sin.
Description: As we read the account of Jesus healing the ten lepers, we marvel that only one returned to give thanks. To be quite honest, in reality, we are much more like the 9 than the one who returned. God has so wonderfully blessed each of us. We’ll reflect on His goodness and develop the thought of thankfulness in this message.
Description: Jude wants to draw a strong connection between the false teachers who have infiltrated the church in his day, to those who are known to have incurred the judgment and wrath of God. These lessons are just as applicable to the modern church as they were to those who worshiped in the first century.
Description: In order to correctly apply the book of Job to our lives, we must take into account the entire book, including the epilogue. It is in the final 11 verses of Job where we learn of his vindication and restoration and the condemnation of his three friends who have spoken falsely. While Job never receives the answer to the question of why he is suffering, what he does receive is far greater.
Description: A surprising introduction into the story is a lengthy speech form a young man named Elihu. Elihu, although aroused by anger against Job and his three friends, doesn’t unfairly accuse Job but reminds him of his former proclamations of faith and serves to prepare the way for Job to hear from God Himself.
Description: In this sermon, we look at the promise Jesus made to His disciples in John chapter 16. He told them that they would be filled with sorrow even as the world rejoices, but that He would turn their sorrow into Joy. Then we look at John chapter 20, to see the fulfillment of that promise and the benediction of peace that Christ pronounced upon His church on that first Easter Sunday and continues to pronounce upon His people today.
