Testing the Claims of Jesus

James Rochford

John 5:31-40

Predictive prophecy is a powerful witness to the validity of the outrageous claims of Jesus. With a little bit of studying Scripture, one can discern that the ninth chapter of the book of Daniel accurately predicts the year the Messiah would be killed. Jesus died on the cross the very year that Daniel predicted hundreds of years earlier.

"Who Do You Say that I Am?"

Conrad Hilario

Mark 8:27-37

When first confronted with who Jesus is, one must make a few decisions. The first is do you believe Jesus is God's Savior? This is a personal, significant and polarizing decision. The second decision is will you entrust and devote your entire life to Jesus and His message? To paraphrase C.S. Lewis, to give up yourself for Jesus, you will find your true self and gain Jesus and everything else thrown in.

He's My Neighbor?

Patrice McCormac

Luke 10:25-38

With the sea of complex needs surrounding us, it is easy and tempting to just keep on walking past people in need. This parable is a challenging call to action. God has placed you where you are today and He will make you adequate and work through your weaknesses to love your neighbors as yourself.

Focusing on the Next Life Encourages Us in this Life

Ryan Weingartner

2 Corinthians 4:16-5:10

God promises that suffering in this life will bear fruit in this life as well as the life to come. We can be encouraged by this because we know that whatever we endure is nothing in comparison to the glory to be revealed in the next life. If we fix our eyes on the unseen realities to come, we can bear up under the sufferings this world has to offer.
