This sermon focuses on the profound implications of Jesus Christ's crucifixion outside of Jerusalem, symbolizing His ultimate rejection and suffering. We explore the theological significance of Christ's execution outside the city gates, drawing parallels with Old Testament practices where unclean and sinful elements were expelled from the camp.

This message challenges believers to embrace the scandal and folly of the cross, which the world sees as a weakness, recognizing it as the power of God for salvation. ★ Support this podcast ★
This sermon delves into the interpretation of Hebrews 13:9-10, emphasizing the dangers of false teachings and the importance of adhering to the truth for spiritual growth. Pastor Jim Osman discusses various warnings throughout the New Testament against false doctrines and underscores the necessity of discernment in distinguishing almost-true teachings from the absolute truth. Central to this sermon is the argument that spiritual strength and sanctification come through grace, not adherence to outdated or irrelevant doctrines, particularly dietary laws, which have no bearing on one's spiritual maturity. ★ Support this podcast ★
In a profoundly reflective exploration, the sermon delves into the unchanging nature of Christ amidst a world in constant flux. It contrasts the impermanence of creation, including humanity's shifting emotions, desires, and the physical world, with the eternal constancy of Jesus Christ as affirmed in Hebrews 13:8. This profound truth offers solace to believers facing life's uncertainties, anchoring their faith in the immutable character of Christ who remains the same across all ages. The discourse illuminates the theological concept of immutability—God's inability to change—highlighting its implications for Christ's divinity, steadfast love, and unwavering purposes toward humanity. ★ Support this podcast ★
