Preacher: Josh Peglow, guest preacher
Key Text: Luke 23:33-43
Description: One on the right and one on the left. And in the middle… Jesus.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, brother in Christ, Josh Peglow, fills in at the pulpit to deliver a message about the two thieves that hung next to Jesus on the day of His crucifixion — two criminals nailed to their own crosses on either side, one hurling insults, the other ultimately calling Him Lord.
If you think about it, the scene — in many ways — depicts that of the world: you’re either with Him or against Him.
Which thief are you?

Notes: What the Penitent Thief knew, that we too need to know…
- knew Jesus is God

- knew Christ was NOT guilty
- knew Christ has the POWER to SAVE
- knew Christ is KING

Preacher: David Teves, guest preacher
Key Text: Ephesians 2:8-10
Description:
Average Guy: If you want to get to heaven, you’d better have a good looking résumé, because the things you do while your here matter.
Average Gal: Total nonsense! Everyone knows that once you get a “Grace Card” from Jesus, works are meaningless.
[argument between the two]
Scandia Host: There is much confusion in the church today as to what good works are and why we need (or need not) do them.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, brother in Christ, David Teves, fills in at the pulpit to preach on a topic that greatly separates Christianity from other religions: GOOD WORKS.
Some say you need to do good works in order to get into heaven; others, we’re saved by grace and that good works don’t matter. …But what does the Bible say?

Notes:
GOOD WORKS
- What are they?
- Are they the same for everyone?
- Who needs them?
- Why do them?

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 6:9-17
Description: Last week on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, we saw the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse who were sent out at the bidding of Christ as He opened the first four of the seven seals.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, we come to seal number five and six as Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation.
With the opening of the fifth seal we witness the martyrs that have come out of this present evil age, crying for God to judge the evil doers and avenge them.
The sixth seal is God’s response… for with the opening of this seal, we get a glimpse of the final day of wrath, of de-creation, and the absolute terror the enemies of God will experience.

Sermon Notes

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 6:1-8
Description:
I watched while the Lamb ripped off the first of the seven seals. I heard one of the Animals roar, “Come out!” I looked—I saw a white horse. Its rider carried a bow and was given a victory garland. He rode off victorious, conquering right and left.
When the Lamb ripped off the second seal, I heard the second Animal cry, “Come out!” Another horse appeared, this one red. Its rider was off to take peace from the earth, setting people at each other’s throats, killing one another. He was given a huge sword.
When he ripped off the third seal, I heard the third Animal cry, “Come out!” I looked. A black horse this time. Its rider carried a set of scales in his hand. I heard a message (it seemed to issue from the Four Animals): “A quart of wheat for a day’s wages, or three quarts of barley, but all the oil and wine you want.”
When he ripped off the fourth seal, I heard the fourth Animal cry, “Come out!” I looked. A colorless horse, sickly pale. Its rider was Death, and Hell was close on its heels. They were given power to destroy a fourth of the earth by war, famine, disease, and wild beasts.
(Rev 6:1-8, The MSG)
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation in which we are introduced to the four horsemen as we witness the opening of the scroll by the One who is worthy, King Jesus.
While the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are sure to capture our imagination, and the imaginations of pop culture, few even know where these images come from — and even fewer, what they mean. But in the midst of this confusion, Christ, the triumphant Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Lamb that was Slain, releases these horsemen to do His bidding as He brings judgment, warning, and trial upon the earth.

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 5
Description: “I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a book written inside and on the back, sealed up with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, ‘Who is worthy to open the book and to break its seals?’ And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the book or to look into it. Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look into it….”
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in book of Revelation and shows us that all of creation has waited to have the scroll of heaven open: the book containing judgment and salvation; the book that will set in motion the providential plans of God to bring every wrong and evil to an end and to reward God’s people with everlasting life.
But who is worthy to open the book? There is one!… The Lion of the Tribe of Judah. The Lamb who was slain. Christ is worthy!
“To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.”

Preacher: Keith Barker, elder
Key Text: Psalm 46:1-10
Description:
Average Guy: I’m trying to listen to God, but I just don’t hear Him.
Scandia Host: Shhhh…. In our busy lives it’s often a challenge to slow down enough to actually come to a full stop and listen. For what we’ll find is that our desire and ability to listen to God is in direct correlation with who we consider Him to be.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Elder Keith Barker shares that too often we as Christians neglect the wonderful access and fellowship opportunities we have with our and Lord and Savior, because we fail to follow the clear and simple instructions found in Psalm 46:10:
“Be still and know that I am God.”

Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 4
Description: We’ve read the seven letters to the churches of Asia Minor… which when taken in totality are a letter to the church as a whole, as well.
…So if that’s the case, how do you get the eyes of the church off of their circumstances as they look to the Lord for strength in all their trials?
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues are study in the book of Revelation and helps us answer that question by pointing us to God in His splendor and sovereignty.
You see, the bigger God is to us, the smaller are the assaults of this present evil age… not because they are insignificant, but rather because they are put into perspective next to the God of the universe who is worthy of all praise.

Key Text: Revelation 3:10-11
Description:
“Because you have kept the word of My perseverance, I also will keep you from the hour of testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.” – Revelation 3:10
Revelation 3:10 – one of the most contested verses in this book of the Bible.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation by taking a moment to unpack this particular verse.
Let’s face it, while everyone in the church agrees that Christ is coming again, not everyone agrees on how it plays out. And while there are multiple interpretive frameworks regarding the book of Revelation, how you interpret what it means for “God to keep us” reveals much about the framework you operate from.

Missionary Update
Missionary David Hardin and his family stopped by to worship with us this Sunday. Many years ago, David grew up in our church, and now he is a Missionary to the Tarahumara people of the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico through Mexico Medical Missions. Though he did not preach today, he did give us an update, and with that an unexpected insight into something we all too easily take for granted.

Sermon Notes

Preacher: Keith Barker, elder
Key Text: Exodus 15:11
Description: The cross: a Christian symbol evoking comfort and love for many, many people. But for some, it stands as a graphic warning sign declaring danger ahead.
Today on Scandia Bible Church podcast, Elder Keith Barker exhorts that the cross is SHOUTING that God hates our sin — so much so that He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus, to pay the price for it by hanging on the cross. His blood was a ransom for us — freeing us from an eternity separated from Him, our loving Heavenly Father.
Yes, the cross serves as a merciful word of comfort to Christians of God’s finished work but, to the unsaved, a stark shout of danger.
