    Summary In this sermon, Dr. Michael Easley addresses the reality of doubt in the Christian life, using the story of “Doubting Thomas” to encourage believers. He begins by acknowledging the many doubts people wrestle with—about the Bible's truth, salvation, God's justice, and the concept of hell—and candidly admits that he, too, has doubted. Dr. Easley walks through the resurrection appearances of Jesus, starting with Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb. Mary initially looks for a dead body, not a risen Savior, illustrating how grief can cloud recognition of God's work. When Jesus calls her by name, she finally recognizes Him—reminding us of His personal relationship with His followers. Takeaways Doubts are a common part of the faith journey. Mary Magdalene's grief turns to joy upon encountering Jesus. The physical resurrection of Jesus is significant for believers. The Holy Spirit empowers the disciples for their mission. Believing without seeing is a blessed state. Grief can be transformed by faith in Christ. Faith in Christ leads to joy and salvation.  To read the gospel of John, click here.

Takeaways The crucifixion is the most significant event in history. A fresh perspective is essential to truly understand it. Even in death, Jesus showed concern for His mother. The seven sayings from the cross reveal profound truths. Jesus' death was a deliberate act of sovereign control. "It is finished" signifies the completion of redemption. Eyewitness accounts confirm the reality of His death. The crucifixion fulfills Old Testament prophecy. The cross is a triumph over sin and death.

    In this sermon, Michael Easley explores the profound significance of Jesus Christ's crucifixion—its unique brutality, the journey to Golgotha, and the fulfillment of Scripture. He emphasizes the spiritual weight of Christ's sacrifice, urging listeners to grasp the depth of His suffering and the love that compelled it. Takeaways The crucifixion is a unique and solemn sacrifice for humanity's sins. Jesus carried His own cross to Golgotha, symbolizing His burden. Crucifixion was one of the most brutal forms of punishment in history. The title 'King of the Jews' was a significant declaration by Pilate. The division of Jesus' garments fulfilled Old Testament prophecy. The seamless garment of Jesus symbolizes His purity and significance. The soldiers' actions during the crucifixion were part of fulfilling scripture. The spiritual suffering of Christ is as significant as His physical pain.

    Man's Court, God's Kingdom, Pt. 2 (John 18:38-19:15)

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 31, 2025 28:25


    This sermon explores the trials of Jesus, focusing on the interactions between Jesus and Pilate, the accusations made against Him, and the role of the Jewish leaders in His condemnation. It delves into the themes of innocence, mockery, and the sovereignty of God in the face of human responsibility, ultimately highlighting the universal guilt of humanity in the crucifixion of Christ. Takeaways: The trials of Jesus are complex and multifaceted. Pilate's attempts to save Jesus reveal his political maneuvering. Barabbas represents the irony of redemption in Jesus' trial. The mocking of Jesus serves to highlight His true kingship. Pilate's dilemma illustrates the conflict between political and religious authority. God's sovereignty does not negate human responsibility for sin. The Jewish leaders played a significant role in the condemnation of Jesus. The phrase 'We have no king but Caesar' reflects a deep irony. All humanity shares responsibility for the death of Christ. God's love is evident in His willingness to sacrifice His Son.

    Man's Court, God's Kingdom, Pt. 1 (John 18:28-38)

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 24, 2025 29:30


    This sermon explores the significance of a fair trial in the context of Jesus' trial before Pilate. It delves into the allegations made against Jesus, the irony of the situation, and the historical context of Pilate's role. Dr. Easley highlights the nature of Jesus' kingdom and the responses of individuals towards Him, ultimately emphasizing the importance of truth and authority in the life of a believer. Takeaways The concept of a fair trial is a cornerstone of the American legal system. Jesus faced multiple trials that lacked fairness and justice. Pilate's historical existence was confirmed through archaeological evidence. The Jews sought to manipulate Pilate into executing Jesus without a fair trial. Jesus' kingdom is not of this world, indicating a different kind of authority. Pilate's question, 'What is truth?' reflects a common human dilemma. Many people today deny, destroy, or dismiss the truth of Christ. Believers are called to submit to the authority of Christ and His teachings. The world is not meant to be a paradise for believers; it is a place of duty. Understanding the nature of Jesus' kingship is crucial for living a faithful Christian life.
