Christian Family Fellowship

Another indication of a person with genuine Christian faith is the willingness to serve others, especially those in the Family of God.

Beginning in chapter 12, verse 9 of his letter to the church in Rome, the Apostle Paul describes four 'marks' of a Christian. Pastor Steve Wadleigh introduces the first of these marks, Sincere Love, in the first of four messages on this passage.

Romans 12 begins the application portion of Paul's letter to the early church in Rome. In this message, Pastor Steve explains how God uses diversity of people and gifts to build his church.

Romans chapter 12 begins the application section of Paul's letter to the church at Rome. In this message, Paul describes the reason for godly humility and the unifying purpose humility serves in the body of Christ, His church.

Romans 12:1 presents the proper response to the doctrine and practice Paul has laid out in the previous eleven chapters of this letter. The rational response to the gospel is a life lived to glorify God.

In this Easter message Pastor Steve Wadleigh shows the historical evidence of the crucifixion, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus that the Apostle John presents so that you may believe and be saved.

This Good Friday sermon looks at six conversations that took place between Jesus, Pilate, Caiaphas, and crowd as Jesus stood before the bar of public opinion. Why did he? looks at the motivation behind the events that led to Calvary and the apparent tragedy that was Good Friday.

As part two of this Passover message, Pastor Steve show how Jesus transformed the traditional Jewish Passover Seder into the continuing celebration of the Lord's Supper as a regular reminder of the New Covenant of Redemption won by his substitutionary death and resurrection.

The significance of Passover, the Jewish Seder, is important for Christians to fully understand why the Eternal Son came in human flesh to live, die, and rise again on Easter.

Romans 12 begins Paul's application in light of the gospel doctrines he has thus far presented. He begins with urging Christians to not be conformed to the ways and thinking of this present world, but transformed by the renewing of our minds by the power of the Holy Spirit.

At the end of Romans 11, the Apostle Paul unveils God's perfect plan for His people. Israel was temporarily hardened to bring in the Gentiles, but in the end, Israel would be drawn back and given faith in Christ so that all Israel will be saved. This was God's plan from the beginning, it is a perfect plan that is unchangeable and unstoppable, and will be complete when Christ returns.

In Romans 11:11-24, the apostle Paul explains God's plan to include the Gentiles into His family, to make them citizens of the eternal Kingdom of Jesus Christ. But God will and is doing this in a most surprising way.

In the opening verses of Romans chapter 11, the Apostle Paul show how God has sovereignly chosen a people for Himself. Throughout history, there have been many challenges to these people, but God has always preserved a remnant chosen by grace and redeemed by faith.

The gospel goes out to all the world, but will people hear is the question. And many seem to hear, but will they believe? In this part of Paul's letter to the church at Rome, God's sovereign will in salvation is discussed.

Since faith comes by hearing, our task as redeemed people is to proclaim the gospel, the good news of salvation by faith alone in Jesus Christ. In this message, Pastor Steve Wadleigh describes four ways in which we can be faithful to the Great Commission.

At Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked his disciples what people were saying about him. After they responded, Jesus asked "Who do you say I am?" Peter responded with a statement that has implications for the church throughout history.

God's gracious gift to sinners is faith. In this message, we learn that we cannot save ourselves. We can only be saved through faith in Christ. Faith has three components to effectually save, and the third component, "trust" is instilled in us by the Holy Spirit. God gives faith freely to all who call upon the Lord. Faith comes through hearing the words of Christ, so, as we love our neighbor, we proclaim Christ.

Jesus said, "I am the good shepherd" but we, by our fallen nature look for others shepherds, and there are many from which to choose. But only Jesus is the Good Shepherd who care for, lays his life down for, and promises to bring all the way home. He is the Good Shepherd.

Survey says, "I get to heaven by being a good person." But the bible says, only by the imputed righteousness of God to Son can one stand blameless before God. Romans 9 and 10 describe why this is true and how it can be yours.

Romans chapter 9 is one of the more challenging sections of scripture. It reveals God's absolute sovereignty over all aspects of His creation, including the eternal fate of every human being.

Is Eve's desire mentioned in Genesis 3:16 sinful? We often view Genesis 3:14-19 as judgment and when we do, we find Eve's desire for her husband to be a desire for his position. But when we understand the pronouncements of God on the participants in the first sin in a covenantal motif, we find that reconciliation is foremost in the minds of God and in Adam and Eve.
