The Real Meaning of Baptism | 1 Corinthians 1:17-18
Baptism in the church is not an end unto itself. It is a sign, pointing to a deeper reality. More than forgiveness, baptism points us to our union with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. Where the old self was crucified, so that you can be born again as a new creation with Christ living in and through you. Pastor Ross helps us to understand this message of the cross, and how it leads us to experience the power of God today.
What Happened to You on the Cross | 2 Corinthians 5:16-17
It is critical that we understand the exchange that God made with us on the cross. More than trading our sins for forgiveness through Jesus' death, we were included into Christ and therefore participated in His death, burial, and resurrection - allowing us to become new creations. It is this single truth that will set you free from the shame and power of the old self - an old self that is now and forever gone.
But God - Ephesians 2:3-6
But God. Maybe the two greatest words in the English language. We were born experiencing death, making a mess of ourselves and the world around us. But God. God’s rich mercy and great love caused Him to rescue us and save us from our mess, but also from ourselves. Listen as Ross teaches from Ephesians 2:3-6, showing us the condition of man before God, and the remarkable change that God has made in our lives.
The Wisdom of the Cross - Part 2
What you believe about the Cross and what happened there 2,000 years ago, will determine how you live today. As we continue where we left off, Ross reveals why it's so important to understand this connection.
