Happy Resurrection Sunday from Scandia Bible Church, 2023!

We want to welcome you to our Sunrise Service Sermon, as our church finds its way back, after a 4 year hiatus, to gather in its tradition for this special time at the lovely waterside home of Elder Keith Barker.

Music this morning being provided by our church family.

And our Sunrise Service message… being delivered by brother in Christ, David Teves, who will show that, indeed, the resurrection means EVERYTHING.

Notes:

Without the Resurrection…

    1. Preaching would be WORTHLESS.
    2. Faith would be USELESS.
    3. Christ would be a LIAR.
    4. the Cross would mean NOTHING.
    5. Those who have Died before us would be in RUIN.
    6. Following Him would be a WASTE of our time.

HOW can sinful man be made righteous?

But of all the solas, it is the sola of “In Christ Alone” that ties all of the others together.

But just who is Christ? What work did He do? And how does this give us hope?

Grace Alone – God’s Gift of Salvation [Ephesians 2:1-10]

SBC frame line - current sermons

Sermon Notes

Date: 08/22/2021

Preacher: David Teves, guest preacher

Series: Five Solas

Key Text: Ephesians 2:1-10

Description:

Avg Guy: I’m a pretty good person. I go to church, read my Bible, say nice things to people. I’m certainly not like HER. She’s the epitome of sex, drugs, and rockin’ roll!!

SBC Host: Careful.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, brother in Christ, David Teves fills in at the pulpit to continue his 5 Solas Series, in which, this time, we look at Grace — the GIFT (not anything of YOUR doing), but the gift of God from which we have been saved through faith… so that NO ONE may boast.

Because you see when we start comparing ourselves to our neighbor to estimate our standing in the Heavenly Court — the devil only laughs.

SBC logo 204x204

When you understand that the comparison has never been with your neighbor — but with the Almighty, Infinite God of the Universe — you indeed realize, that right from the beginning, you were DEAD.

Key Text: Titus 2:11-14

Description: 

Driver: Hey Grace… How do I get to Christian Living?

Grace GPS: Getting directions to Christian Living. … Starting from Salvation, with the grace of God, drive straight and continue on the narrow path for a lifetime with sobriety, righteousness, and godliness. Along the way, avoid ungodliness and worldly lusts, as you look for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Driver: Thank you.

Grace GPS: Happy to help!

SBC logo 204x204

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, brother in Christ, Josh Peglow fills in at the pulpit and takes us to the book of Titus where we are reminded that when we need direction, “Grace” is there!… the grace of God… for it instructs us how to live, points us toward our coming hope, and grounds us in the work of Christ.

Ultimately, what we find is that the grace of God transforms us.
