Put Away From Yourselves the Evil Person (1 Cor. 5)

Moving on from Paul’s opening arguments, First Corinthians chapter five addresses a specific issue of immorality that was taking place at the church in Corinth.  Worse than the sin itself, was the way in which the Church was handling the situation.  In this lesson, Nate Bibens teaches on Paul’s rebuke and instruction concerning the man that was living in immorality, which also provides a pattern for how congregations today can and should deal with sin in their midst.

Nicodemus: A Conversion Conversation (Life of Christ Sermon 12)

In John chapter 3, we read of a conversation between Nicodemus and Jesus.  Nicodemus was a leader of the Jews, but he recognized Jesus was from God.  There was much more that Nicodemus needed to learn however, and in this passage we find Jesus teaching the wonderful lesson of conversion, and we also learn about the great love of God!

A Wedding and a Feast (Life of Christ Sermon 11)

John chapter 2 is a chapter of two feasts.  One is a wedding in Cana of Galilee, the other the national feast of Passover in Jerusalem.  John tells of the events that took place at these feasts – Jesus’ first miracle, and the dramatic cleansing of the Temple in Jerusalem!  In this sermon, Nate Bibens goes through both stories and the lessons we learn from them.

Paul’s Paternal Care: 1 Cor. 4:7-21

Bringing his opening arguments to a close, the apostle Paul addresses the ridiculous nature of the Corinthian’s pride in 1 Cor. 4:7-21.  In this lesson, David Brown shows that Paul’s goal was not to shame them, but to correct them as a father for their betterment.  Paul also issued a severe warning – shape up before his next visit, or he would have to come with the rod of correction!

“Come and See” (Life of Christ Sermon 10)

The Baptism of Jesus (Life of Christ Sermon 8)
