In today's society confession is primarily something we do IF we are caught doing something we're not supposed to do. Well, that's NOT Biblical confession, that's just admission. In this sermon entitled, Confession - a working model we're going to look at what true...

Drano is a great product - if your sink is clogged.  It can unstop that oily hairy plug.  That's a blessing.  But you don't want to eat those little sugar looking crystals.  It is a caustic poison.  That's a caution!  Yes, it's true, a product can be good and...

Last week we asked the question, Did Jesus Ever Repent?  As we studied the Biblical repentance model I hope we all came to the conclusion that Jesus certainly did live out the repentance experience (Mark 1:4, 9; Hebrews 4:15). Let us remember this, after Christ had...

Did Jesus ever repent?  The question isn't just hypothetical?  The reason it is being asked at all is because we find in Mark chapter one that the very first act of Christ's ministry was to go down to the Jordon river where John the Baptists was preaching and request...

So, we've been talking about sin - It's the transgression of God's law.  We've talked about why we sin - we desire it and we choose to.  Once we've broken God's law, once we've sinned, fallen into the deep pit, how do we get out?  How do we escape from sin once we've...

We know drinking and driving is dumb, but we do it anyway.  We know smoking causes cancer, impotence, emphysema, and death, but we still smoke.  Why?  If we know cheating on our spouse could ruin our marriage, our carrier, our life, why do we still do it? In the...

Is it a "sin" to eat a burger at a fast food joint like McDonalds? Virtually all christians today would say, "No, not at all." But that answer would be based on what? In most cases our culture. But the question is, "Is it a sin?"  On what basis do we define sin, on...
