After the Cross

Dennis McCallum

Mark 16:1-8

Jesus' resurrection from the dead is the crux of the Christian faith. There are several compelling reasons to believe in its historical credibility, including: 1) failure to exhume the body; 2) lack of any interest in the burial place of Jesus; 3) reports by woman; 4) the spread of Christianity after the events of the cross; and 5) the willingness of the apostles to go to their death for their faith. Without a physical resurrection of Christ, Christianity ceases to exist and the faith is useless.

The "Olivet Discourse"

Dennis McCallum

Mark 13:1-37

During this discourse, Jesus reveals portions of what will happen at the end of human history. At the end of the church age, there will be a great period of tribulation like nothing that has been seen before. Incredible technology, increased populations, and moral anarchy will characterize this time that Jesus predicted. With these in mind, there is an urgency for Christians to fulfill God's work before this time, an increased need for healthy Christian community, and a need for alertness to watch for these signs of the end of human history.

Jesus' Big Surprise

Dennis McCallum

Ephesians 3:9-11

Jesus' sacrifice on the cross was God's mystery that He kept hidden from all creation. Jesus' first coming broke expectations for people at the time, as God had planned for a second coming to take place after the time of the cross, ushering in a time for God to use His church to reach people for Christ. The cross was God's demonstration of His perfect love and was kept hidden from Satan in order to ultimately defeat him through Jesus Christ's first coming at the cross.

A Mountaintop Experience

Dennis McCallum

Mark 9:1-7

Jesus' transfiguration on the mountain before James, Peter and John communicates the transcendence and immanence of God. Often, God will use spiritual experiences for strengthening and encouragement during trial. This event also proved that Jesus fulfilled and supersedes the Old Testament. As Christians, we should learn to enjoy spiritual experiences but not depend on them for the basis of our faith, which is found in Christ.

Two More Beasts

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 8

Daniel has a vision and prophecies about future historical figures that will persecute God's people, ultimately pointing towards the "Beast" of Revelations, the Anti-Christ. God has given us evidence to trust Him through already fulfilled prophecies, so we know we can trust the things He has promised us and His predictions for the future!
