Dive into Luke 7 with Pastor Derek as we explore the profound power of Jesus' words in "Just Say The Word." This week, we examine how Christ's authority and life-giving power are revealed through two remarkable encounters: the healing of a centurion's servant and the raising of a widow's son. Pastor Derek unpacks the significance of Christ's words, highlighting their authority over sickness, death, and even our very souls. We'll see how a Roman centurion, a man of authority himself, recognized the ultimate authority of Jesus, understanding that "say the word, and my servant will be healed." Then, witness the life-transforming power as Jesus speaks to a dead young man, restoring him to his grieving mother, demonstrating that Christ's words bring not just physical healing, but eternal life. This sermon challenges us to consider: Do we truly believe in the authority of Christ's words? Do we heed them, knowing they hold the power to change everything? Discover how, in a world filled with noise, the words of Jesus stand apart, offering hope, healing, and eternal life. Join us as we unpack these powerful stories, reminding ourselves that the words of Christ are vital, necessary, and life-changing. Whether you're a long-time believer or exploring faith, this message will inspire you to trust in the unparalleled authority and life found in Jesus' voice. Tune in to "Just Say The Word" and experience the power of His transformative word.
Luke 20:27-47 | JD Summers God's Word bears the authority of God himself. In Scripture we see ultimate truth that contains the good news of the gospel, but this good news challenges our own assumptions. Without Christ, our own understanding of ourselves, of the world, and of God are faulty, and we must forego our own misconceptions and instead align ourselves with the truth of Scripture. What will you do when Scripture challenges you? Will you harden your heart and reject it, or humbly embrace the living Word which is able to lead you to salvation?
Sermon series: Luke 7-9: Trusting the SaviourThe story of the demon-possessed man is well-known to many yet it can often feel far removed from modern readers. While demon possession is a central feature, the story is really about how Jesus' compassion and authority meet the oppressed and needy. This story challenges us then to consider how we would respond in light of this.Preacher: Chua Si YangDate: 23 February 2025

After showing the Pharisees the true meaning of sabbath resulting in their further hatred (2:23–3:6), Jesus withdraws to the Sea of Galilee where multitudes came to Him. The multitude pressed in on Him seeking healings so that Jesus appointed twelve delegates (apostles) to learn from Him, preach, and exercise His authority.

Christian nationalists want to install a theocracy and force Christ upon others. They claim Romans 13 as justification for the US government to do whatever it wants through violence and coercion. But that's a misuse of Christ and of Romans 13. Check out this episode of One Question for more!

THE LOVE OF GOD AMONG BELIEVERS PERMEATES THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE LOCAL CHURCH THEN THE POWER OF CHRIST IS REVEALED AND THE VICTORY OF CHRIST IS DEMONSTRATED.
WE HAVE TO STAND IN THE AUTHORITY OF JESUS CHRIST BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN GIVEN THE AUTHORITY BOTH IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH
A MAJOR theme in the book of Mark is Christ's authority. In Mark, Jesus continuously reveals His authority, begging the question, "does Christ have authority in MY life?" Bev and Delaney discuss Christ's words and actions which reveal His supreme authority. Although Christ's authority isn't always a popular message, it is crucial to understand. Understanding the authority of Christ should be a Christian's comfort, because it mean Christ has permission and control over all areas of life. Thankfully, Mark has a lot to say about Christ's authority, tune in to learn more.
Mark's Gospel begins, not with genealogies or birth narratives, but with Jesus launching his Messianic ministry. It is immediately clear that he has authority over people, over the spiritual realm, and over the physical realm.

Luke 20:34-40 Our physical death is not the end. The Sadducees saw obtaining wealth and stature was most important in life and their lives were lived as if your best life is now.

And as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to him, 28 and they said to him, “By what authority are you doing these things, or who gave you this authority to do them?” 29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. 30 Was the baptism of John from heaven or from man? Answer me.” 31 And they discussed it with one another, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,' he will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?' 32 But shall we say, ‘From man'?”—they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John really was a prophet. 33 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.” And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
