JESUS IS ABLE TO SET US FREE FROM SIN

“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed” (Jn. 8:36).
Through Jesus Christ, we who believe in Him, are liberated from the power and the penalty of sin, enabling us to live righteous lives and have spiritual freedom that extends into eternal life. Jesus’ sacrifice and resurrection provided this transformative freedom that goes beyond merely avoiding wrongdoing. When we accept Him as Savior, we are no longer enslaved by sin; instead, we are empowered to live in alignment with God’s will and experience love, peace, joy, and many other fruits of the Holy Spirit. “You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness” (Rom. 6:18).
The freedom we receive by following Jesus is both spiritual and practical, allowing us to overcome sinful habits and live a life guided by the Holy Spirit today (Rom 8:1-2). Forgiveness is central to this freedom. Jesus’ sacrifice washes away guilt and shame, allowing us to return to God’s grace regardless of our past sins (1 Jn. 1:9). This forgiveness frees us and empowers us to extend grace to others.
The freedom we receive from Christ also means that we are “being saved.” Being free from sin does not mean we will never sin. It means that sin no longer has dominion over us. It also means that the Holy Spirit cultivates a new nature in us that reflects more and more Christ’s righteousness and love. Again, we know this theological concept as “being saved.”
The key takeaway is this: Jesus sets us free from sin today by breaking its power, offering forgiveness, and giving us a new nature.

MAY WE INDEED BE FREE FROM THE BO***GE OF SIN!

Our WORSHIP THEME this Saturday, August 29th, 11:00a is PROTECTED. I am preaching: JESUS IS MY ADVOCATE. This message is in line with our 2026 Church Focus: Knowing Christ & Him Crucified! Please join us!

ALSO, the CHILDREN'S CHOIR sings this Saturday at 11:00a.

JESUS IS OUR ADVOCATE AT ALL TIMES

“My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world” (1 Jn. 2:1-2).
In the Bible, ADVOCATE comes from the Greek word PARAKLETON, meaning helper, adviser, counselor, or one who is called to one’s aid. In a human sense, an advocate is someone who pleads our cases before a judge or represents us in a legal matter. In a spiritual sense, Jesus is the perfect, eternal advocate who stands before God the Father on our behalf. This means that when we sin, Jesus intercedes for us, pleading our case before His Heavenly Father, and applies His righteousness to our account to atone for our sins.
Jesus is the Only One who is qualified to be our advocate because He is both fully God and fully man—holy, innocent, without sin—yet fully human, so He can sympathize with our weaknesses and plead our case before God (Heb. 4:15).
As I look at this defense of Jesus on our behalf through the lenses of God’s Word, several things stand out for us of what Jesus is actually doing as being this unique advocate we have.
• He intercedes on our behalf before the Father. “Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us” (Rom. 8:34).
• He mediates on our behalf and bridges the gap between a holy God and us sinful beings. “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus” (1 Tim. 2:5).
• He applies His righteousness to us. Through faith in Him, His perfect righteousness is credited to us, so we are declared not guilty. “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (Rom. 8:1).
• He has an ongoing defense for us. Even after we give our lives to Him, Jesus continues to defend us from condemnation if we repent. “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” (1 Jn. 1:9).
The reality is that we do our best to not sin, but we end up sinning again because of our weak sinful nature. Only by the Advocate’s ongoing defense and grace can we live today and can hope for a reunion with our Heavenly Father.

MAY WE CONTINUALLY REMAIN UNDER HIS DEFENSE!

JESUS IS THE LIVING WORD AMONG US

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. … The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the One and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth” (Jn. 1:1-2, 14).
Biblically, JESUS AS THE WORD means that He is the eternal and divine expression of God’s revelation, the agent of creation, the perfect embodiment of God’s truth and power, and the dwelling of God with mankind towards a purpose. JESUS AS THE WORD comes primarily from John 1:1-14, where John uses the Greek term LOGOS (WORD) to introduce Jesus as:
ETERNAL and DIVINE – existing with God and being God.
CREATOR - through Him all things were made.
INCARNATE – He became flesh dwelling with us.
In doing so, Jesus became the bridge between God and humanity. The rest of the gospels and other New Testament books expand the meaning of what John meant by who the Logos was then and still is: the personal God who we know and experience every day. It is interesting that John carried this WORD (LOGOS) with him in all his writings, including his letters and the last book of the Bible: “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life” (1 Jn. 1:1). “His name is the Word of God” (Rev. 19:13).
The WORD spoke to Paul, and continues to speak to every single one of us during these last days. “But in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom also He made the universe” (Heb. 1:2).
Do you hear Him?
Do you see Him?
JESUS IS THE LIVING WORD AMONG US!

MAY WE WALK WITH JESUS, THE LIVING WORD!

JESUS IS THE LIVING WATER WE NEED

“Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life” (Jn. 4:13-14).
One of the poetic and symbolic names for Jesus is Living Water. Jesus didn’t explicitly state it with an “I am” statement, but He clearly implied it and connected His audience with an Old Testament understanding of the Messiah as the spring of the living water (Jer. 2:13). He used it first with the Samaritan woman at the well. He reinforced it later in John 7:37-39 by declaring Himself to be the source of the living water given to all who would later believe in Him by the Holy Spirit. “‘Let anyone who is thirsty come to Me and drink. Whoever believes in Me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within him.’ By this (the flow) He meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive.” In the very last chapter of the Bible (Rev. 22:17), Jesus again invites us to receive the free gift of the living water. “Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.”
The Living Water is the spiritual sustenance only Jesus can provide and it means several things. It is spiritual satisfaction. Just as water sustains physical life, Jesus sustains spiritual life quenching the soul’s deepest thirst. It is eternal life. Drinking the living water leads to eternal life. It is also the Holy Spirit's flow from the believer's heart, empowering them to live in God’s presence and share Jesus with others. It is also an invitation to all. Jesus’ call to come and drink is a standing invitation to freely drink to anyone who believes in Him.

MAY WE DRINK ABUNDANTLY OF THE LIVING WATER!

Pathfinder, Adventurer, and Soccer Clubs Registration Day is this Saturday, August 8th, 10:00-12:00p (Lobby), and 12:30-1:30p (Fellowship Hall).

JESUS IS THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE TODAY

“Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in Me will never die. Do you believe this?’” (Jn. 11:25).
“I am the Resurrection and the Life” is the fifth of the seven “I am” statements of Jesus. Earlier, Jesus had heard that His good friend Lazarus was sick, but instead of going to visit him, Jesus stayed where He was for two more days. He explained to His puzzled disciples that the sickness was “for God’s glory, that God’s Son may be glorified through it” (v. 4). After Lazarus died, Jesus began a journey to his home in Bethany and raised him from the sleep of death (v. 11).
When Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life,” He was claiming to be the source of both. There is no resurrection apart from Christ, and there is no eternal life apart from Christ. Jesus’ statement provides a solid perspective on two important spiritual matters. First, Martha believed that the resurrection is an event, but Jesus pointed out to her that the resurrection is a Person—I AM—with whom we need to engage. Second, Martha thought that victory over death was a future expectation. Jesus corrects her, showing that victory over death is a present reality—“whoever lives by believing in Me will never die.”
After presenting Himself as the resurrection and the life, Jesus asks Martha an all-important question: “Do you believe this?” This time, Martha got it right. Her answer could have only been inspired by the Holy Spirit. John 11, and Jesus’ statement specifically and Martha’s statements, is the pinnacle of the Gospel of John. If we believe and accept Jesus as the Son of God, through Him who is the Resurrection and the Life, we indeed have both life today and eternal life. “Yes, Lord, … I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world” (v. 27).

WE HAVE LIFE TODAY BECAUSE WE ABIDE IN HIM!

Our WORSHIP THEME this Saturday, August 1st, 11:00a is HE'S THE LORD. Zachariah Kurgat is preaching: KNOWING JESUS AS THE LORD. This message is in line with our 2026 Church Focus: Knowing Christ & Him Crucified! Please join us!

JESUS IS LIKE THE FATHER IN EVERYTHING

“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. If you really know Me, you will know My Father as well. From now on, you do know Him and have seen Him’” (Jn. 14:6-7).
T. F. Torrance was a Scottish Protestant Presbyterian theologian of the 20th Century, respected across denominational lines for his Christ-centered theology, but prior to that, he served as a chaplain during World War II. One day, on a battlefield in Italy, he attended to a dying 19-year-old soldier. The dying man asked him, “Padre, is God really like Jesus?” For Torrance, this question captured “the deepest cry of the human heart”–is the God we meet at the resurrection the same God that came to earth as a lowly babe who lived among us, suffered as we do, and died and rose from the dead to inspire us to live for God and reach out for salvation? Torrance assured the dying man with these words: “God is indeed really like Jesus. There is no unknown God behind the back of Jesus for us to fear. To see the Lord Jesus is to see the very face of God.” This experience would later guide Torrance’s future work as a minister and theologian.
Among the confusion of who God the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit are, people lose sight that God is revealed in the gentle life of Jesus, One and the same with the Father and the Holy Spirit. If the Gospels are true, we’ve got no reason to fear when we have Jesus in our lives. Knowing what it means that Jesus reveals the Father and is One with Him is one of the most important truths any one of us can ever know. So important, it changes our lives!

MAY WE KNOW AND TRUST JESUS THE SON AND THE LORD!

Our WORSHIP THEME this Saturday, July 25th, 11:00a is HE'S THE VINE. I'm preaching: JESUS IS THE TRUE VINE. This message is also in line with our 2026 Church Focus: Knowing Christ & Him Crucified! Please join us!

I am back from my summer vacation, and I cannot wait to see y'all in church this coming Sabbath.

JESUS IS THE VINE WHO PRODUCES THE FRUIT

“I am the true vine, and My Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in Me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit, He prunes so that it will be even more fruitful” (Jn. 15:1-2).

I just got back from a family vacation in Italy, and we saw plenty of vineyards going in all directions. The one we visited last week, had some of the oldest varieties of grapes going back hundreds of years. I also grew up in a wine-producing region of Moldova where my family had two vineyards, one being over about 160 years old by now. My mother was at that time a viticulturist, someone who knows how to prune the wines. A viticulturist plays a critical role in the maintenance of vineyards, ensuring the health and productivity of the grapevines, and promoting optimal growth and fruit production.

Jesus in His last “I am” statement in John 15, His seventh, explains where our place is in this triangular existential function of fruit-bearing. The Father is the vine-grower and the viticulturist pruning for optimal growth. Jesus is the Vine including the root ball and the only anchor to the soil. We are the branches connected to the Vine. Our function is the least important one, but important enough to inform us that we only bear fruit if we are connected to the main vine.

Jesus is actually the One who produces the fruit. We, the branches, only bear it, and if we don’t bear any, the Father prunes us off. The good news is that if we are in Christ, we will bear fruit, lots of it. Jesus made it very clear in v. 5. “If you remain in Me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” It’s a symbiotic relationship.

MAY WE BEAR LOTS OF WONDERFUL, DELICIOUS FRUIT!

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭5-11 NIV‬‬:
“Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce. Marry and have sons and daughters; find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Increase in number there; do not decrease. Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper. “Yes, this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: “Do not let the prophets and diviners among you deceive you. … For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
