Gods Word Community Church Following Him to Calvary The God Who Chases Us!The last Gospel written, John's Gospel, writes the story no one else had written about why Jesus made his very last trip to Jerusalem. Friends living close to Jerusalem sent Jesus a message that a good friend, Lazarus, their brother, was dying of an illness. Jesus performs one of his greatest miracles in raising Lazarus from the dead, but the miracle provokes the religious leaders, and they make plans to execute him. When Jesus comes to Jerusalem from Lazarus's home, the people lay palm branches in front of him as he enters the city: "Hosanna!,' they say. They think he is their Messiah against the Romans, but his goal is higher: He has come to save all mankind from our sins. Jesus warns his disciples what is coming, that he is going to die, and it is the greatest thing for all mankind, but they resist him. Jesus then strengthens them with some of the richest teaching we know, and His Father's commands will guide them. Then, comes the cross.Current Sermons Audio:

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 2 Thessalonians 3Looking to Eternity: Working in the Eternal Community:In this last part of the second letter written to the Thessalonian church, Paul addresses a very strange topic. The Apostle appeals to the church members that are not working, causing scandals and living off of other members of the church. It appears the Thessalonians originally thought Jesus was coming back so soon they saw no reason to keep their jobs. The Apostle Paul lived very differently among them, working hard and providing for his own needs. But the love Paul has for these brothers and sisters shines through as he encourages them in their work for the gospel through all adversity.Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 2 Thessalonians 2Looking to Eternity: God Saves From the Darkness:In this chapter Paul reassures the panicked disciples of Thessalonica. They were afraid that they had missed the coming of the Lord. But, Paul tells them two things that must happen before Jesus returns, a great falling away and the coming of the man of sin. Both Jesus and the man of sin are said to be coming. Both have a gospel and both say that they alone should be worshiped. Paul then encourages the Thessalonians to stand firm in the face of these things. God speaks through the words of his messengers. Will you hear them and endure to the end?Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 2 Thessalonians 1Looking to Eternity: Judgment:Paul and the disciples with him sent a second letter to the Thessalonian church to encourage them in the midst of their persecution. Paul reminds them that temptation and trials are common to all men, then and now. So why do modern day Christians believe our lives should be significantly easier once we believe in Jesus Christ? Paul shares with the Thessalonian church that through the difficulties of life we must not lose sight of Gods design to mature us.Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 1 Thessalonians 5 bThe Conduct Concerns of a Good Church:Paul’s final message to the church at Thessalonica focused on how we live with God, and how we treat one another. When you consider that non-believers at the time, like today, may not be the friendliest people, what he asks is a pretty tall order. As is always true, there was a ton of pressure to conform to the existing culture, as well as to Greek, Roman and other gods. Paul, instead, encourages us to live by faith lives of hope and love. These values change how we treat other believers and the people in our society. As we study this section, we can ask, what changes can we make to live in peace with the individuals in our society?Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 1 Thessalonians 4-5 aWe Will Meet the Lord In the Air:When we learn that the timing of the end of the world cannot be calculated – that God has made it that way – with that out of the way, can we learn the point that we need to be ready? When the Apostles talk about the end of the world and the return of Jesus Christ, when Jesus speaks about that day, the great question is not when, where, what… but how should we then live: Will we live so that whenever it is that He returns, before or after our own passing, we will be ready to receive Him in triumph, glory, honor, and praise? It is about being ready!Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Gospel of Christmas Sermon on Luke: 2, Matthew: 2The Visitors:God has opened His arms to all people everywhere. What is He looking for from us? Close relationship. Worship. Trust. Obedience. We can go through our days without setting aside time with Him, but our lives shrink from wonder to the mundane without Him. The Shepherds and the Magi were willing to take the time to be with God, and they were filled with wonder and changed by being with Him. Today, the same challenge is before us all: Do we make time to know this loving God, who calls us, who loves us, who will draw us near and be eternal life to us, if we make the time for Him?Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Gospel of Christmas Sermon on Luke 1: 26-38; Matthew 1: 18-25; Zechariah 3:1-10; 6: 9-15 (520BC)The Announcement:When one looks at the Christmas story, so much of Who God is can be revealed to us. We know He is the Yahweh Who Remembers. We know He didn't want to leave us without hope. We know His righteousness, unlike ours, is full of mercy. We know He wanted us to give us a basis to believe, so 500 years earlier, He took a high priest with the same name as Our Savior, Joshua, or Jeshua, whom we call Jesus, put a joined crown of priest and king on his head, and said, “This crown will come to the One I am sending to you.”Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 1 Thessalonians 4Living Pleasing to God:In a culture of unlimited religious tolerance, we have forgotten that there are things God looks for in the His people. How do we live pleasing to God? In the first part of 1 Thessalonians 4, Paul tells the young Thessalonian church the kind of living God wants His people to do. This is a primer for the divine life.Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 1 Thessalonians 3Intervening For Each Other’s Spirits:How often do we hear people in our culture say that their relationship with God is between them and Him? The culture created by Jesus and the Apostles is very different: We see a community that knows that each person needs support to walk faithfully with God. In Eph 1:16-19 Paul prayed in detail for the faith of the Ephesians. In Hebrews 3:13-14 he gives us responsibility to keep each other from drifting away. In 1 Thess 3, he intervened with changed plans to confirm the faith of his brothers and sisters.Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community ChurchThe Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 1 Thessalonians 2 bWhat is Our Crown?:How does our cultural style tame down our affection for one another? When do you think we quit letting others know how much we love them? What could we do to increase the expression of affection in our relationships with our brothers and sisters in the fellowship? How do we increase our expressions of love for each other so that each member of the community has a keen sense of being strongly attached, of knowing the love that his or her brothers or sisters have for each one. Current Sermons Audio: 

Gods Word Community Church The Churches of the New Testament Sermon on 1 Thessalonians 2 aKeeping In Step With the Spirit:What does a church look like when love and faith are truly working together? We’ve seen so many examples of the opposite, lack of trust and lack of affection. But, notice the peace and sweetness here, and ask yourself, how can we use this to watch how we are doing in the Lord?Current Sermons Audio:
