A Time to Remember Part 2 (Holy Communion Sunday)Mark 14:22-25; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 In my sermon this Sunday, "A Time to Remember," I will prompt the congregation to acknowledge and appreciate the individuals who have significantly shaped their lives. I will emphasize the importance of remembering and honoring them as a form of care. I will move on to discuss grace's crucial role — an unmerited, unconditional love from God — present at every stage of life, even before birth. The sermon recognizes four forms of grace: "Prevenient Grace," which represents God's continuous pursuit of establishing a relationship with us; "Convicting Grace," the realization of our faults and the need for repentance; "Justifying Grace," which sees us forgiven and in a right relationship with God; and "Sanctifying Grace," our response to God's love through deepening our relationship and living according to His will. Finally, "Perfecting Grace," evolves us into the form of Christ as we grow stronger in our faith and spirituality.I will then discuss the sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion as pathways for receiving such divine grace. The sermon clarifies that these sacraments are not about gaining salvation or God's favor, but rather as means to enrich our connection with God. The sermon emphasizes the role of Baptism in establishing our Christian identity and mission, while Holy Communion nourishes us spiritually. As a concrete physical representation of God's grace, Holy Communion uses bread and wine as symbols of God's love making it visible and tangible. The act becomes a "sign-act," where words, actions, and physical elements transmit God's love. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we encounter Christ at the Communion table, receiving the spiritual benefits available to us. Participating in Holy Communion over time reshapes us into Christ's image, healing our relationship with God and strengthening us to continue his work in the world.The sermon concludes with the reminder that participating in Holy Communion is a way of experiencing eternal life and uniting with Christ both in the present and the afterlife. I will reiterate the necessity of being grateful for God's love. The essence of this message is centered around remembrance, gratitude, and divine grace in the form of sacraments. We will then partake of Holy Communion. Grace and Peace,Stephen

Justification is a work that only God can perform in our lives. He will wash away our sins so that we may also forgive others. He will apply His righteousness upon us. He will make us "right," but also like Christ. The spotless, sinless lamb who took on the punishment we deserved. His justification is, lastly, a legal pronouncement that we are not guilty, fully vindicated by His love and grace.

In this episode of "The 167 Podcast," Lead Pastor Shannon Patterson and Media Pastor Joshua Harrell delve into one of the most profound theological questions: Has God already decided who will follow Him, or do we have a say in the matter? Do we choose God, or does He choose us? Does He preselect those who will spend eternity in heaven or hell? Join us as we explore these questions from a Wesleyan-Arminian perspective, emphasizing free will and God's grace. We'll delve into the concept of Prevenient Grace—the grace that goes before us, inviting us onto the porch of faith. Justifying Grace welcomes us through the door, and Sanctifying Grace transforms us within. Discover how Wesleyan-Arminians view human depravity, our inherent inability to do good or repent without divine aid, and the role of Prevenient Grace in drawing us to God. We'll discuss the biblical basis for these beliefs and how they shape our understanding of salvation. Tune in to gain deeper insights into the interplay between divine grace and human free will.

Village Church Rolesville Sunday Message, February 20, 2022

The bible speaks of God's grace in two different ways. Today Bryce and I walk through how to think about the grace that God bestows on us in a justifying sense. God has lavished grace upon us to the praise of his glorious grace! God's grace is entirely unmerited by the human and is an act of favor on God's part alone. I pray this episode encourages and edifies you. For The King! Key Texts: John 1:14,16 Romans 3:24 ; 11:6 Ephesians 1:7 ; 2:5-9 Titus 3:7 ; 2:11 My guest joining me this week on the Sunday series is my brother Bryce. Bryce just finished his undergraduate degree in philosophy and recently started his MDiv. from Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary. He hopes, if the LORD wills it, to be a pastor shepherding Gods people one day.

Rev. Michael Precht preaches on the subject, "Justifying Grace."

Last week we talked about how God's grace opens our blinded eyes to the light of the reality of who He is. The problem with that is that once we realize who He is (and consequently who we are) we also then realize that we are hopelessly far from Him, mired in our own sin. We have a better chance to control a sunset than to find a way to make things right on our own.It is there though, at the foot of the cross that the grace of Christ's sacrifice becomes real to us and His justifying grace makes us right again. 

Scripture Lesson: Romans 3:21-26

Acts 9:1-19 This sermon opens the new year with a reminder that at the heart of the Christian message is that God loves us, forgives us and gives us the hope of a new life. Before you embark on any resolutions for yourself this year, remember that Christ's grace for you is perfect and unconditional.
