The Triumph of the Cross

The Triumph of the Cross

The Triumph of the Cross

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack teaches on the power of confession?not as merely acknowledging guilt, but as declaring what is true according to God's Word. Drawing from Colossians 2:13-15, he explores how the cross of Christ triumphs over three forces that would limit our victory: the record of our past, the fact of our sinful nature, and the real power of darkness. Pastor Jack invites the congregation to partake of communion as a tangible way to receive and apply Christ's specific triumph to the areas of bondage, temptation, and struggle in their lives.

Pastor Jack teaches on the church at Philadelphia from Revelation 3, emphasizing that Jesus has set before them an open door that no one can shut. Drawing on the symbolism of the key of David and the Davidic covenant, he explains how Christ's government extends to all nations through the church's missionary outreach. Pastor Jack challenges the congregation to step through the open doors God provides through prayer, giving, and sending missionaries, noting that faithful obedience brings protection and intimacy with Christ.
The Life of the Church

The Life of the Church

by | Jun 27, 2026

In this Sunday morning message from December 1976, Pastor Jack teaches from the letter to the church in Sardis, exploring Jesus as the life of the church. He addresses the tension between God's call to righteousness and His mercy, urging believers to remain watchful and strengthen what remains rather than giving up. Pastor Jack emphasizes that walking closely with Jesus?staying "soft" and pliable to the Holy Spirit?is the key to avoiding spiritual death and maintaining purity, not legalistic rule-keeping.
How to Tell Christmas Time

How to Tell Christmas Time

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack draws from the Christmas narrative and Isaiah 9 to explore the promise that God's jealous commitment ensures our fulfillment. He explains that the Hebrew word for "zeal" carries the meaning of jealousy?not the toxic kind, but God's intolerance of anything that would hinder our mutual fulfillment with Him. Through personal stories of congregants facing discouragement, fear, and loss, Pastor Jack illustrates how we come to know the names of Christ?Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace?only through the very trials that threaten to overwhelm us.
Blessed Are the Peacemakers

Blessed Are the Peacemakers

by | Jun 27, 2026

Pastor Jack draws from Isaiah's prophecy of the Prince of Peace and Jesus' teaching on peacemakers to reveal that believers are called to be "princes of peace"?offspring of Christ who actively rule and make peace happen. He teaches that peacemaking is not passive but requires spiritual authority to order, establish, and support broken situations through judgment (deliverance) and justice (righteousness), illustrating this with a recent ministry experience of bringing restoration to a marriage devastated by adultery and spiritual blindness.
