1974 An Easter Picture: The Living Way

Pastor Jack draws from the story of Jesus appearing to two disciples on the road to Emmaus to illustrate how the risen Christ meets us in our disappointment and confusion. He teaches that even when we're walking in discouragement with "eyes holden," unable to recognize Jesus' presence, the Lord faithfully draws near, opens the Scriptures, and reveals Himself when we invite Him to abide with us. Pastor Jack encourages believers not to live "in a box" of past hurts but to receive the light of God's Word and share their testimony, trusting that Jesus will confirm His presence wherever they go.
Fulfilling All Righteousness

Fulfilling All Righteousness

Pastor Jack draws from the baptism of Jesus in Matthew 3 to teach on why believers need the baptism of the Holy Spirit. He explains that righteousness encompasses both our standing before God and our empowerment for ministry? ?Jesus said "thus it becomes us to fulfill all righteousness" when being baptized. Pastor Jack emphasizes that the Holy Spirit gives believers not only position and authority as sons of God, but also the power (dunamis) and ability to minister Christ's life and bring "rightness" where wrongness exists.

Don? ?t Lose Your Kingship

Pastor Jack draws from the account of Saul's disobedience in 1 Samuel 15 to teach on maintaining genuine kingly relationship with God. He warns the congregation that they are entering a season of spiritual warfare and calls them to remain "little in their own sight" while walking in obedience to God's Word. Pastor Jack emphasizes that to obey is better than sacrifice, urging the church to pursue prayer, forgiveness, and consistent Bible reading as they press into new dimensions of faith and breakthrough.

The Nature of Spiritual Breakthrough

He addresses the fears and dangers inherent in developing eldership, emphasizes the need for conversion and childlike humility, and explains how believers must break through to see the spiritual realm where principalities and powers operate. Pastor Jack stresses that effective ministry requires not only acceptance in Christ but also revelation of spiritual authority over the powers of darkness.
On Binding and Loosing

On Binding and Loosing

Pastor Jack teaches on the powerful spiritual principles of binding and loosing from Matthew 16:18-19, explaining how Jesus has given the church keys of the kingdom to exercise authority over the forces of hell. Drawing from Greek language insights, he reveals that whatever believers bind or loose on earth has already been bound or loosed in heaven, demonstrating that God has equipped His people with real authority to function through prayer using the Word of God, the name of Jesus, and the blood of the cross. Pastor Jack explores practical applications? ?from binding demonic forces and loosing captives, to binding up the brokenhearted with God's love and loosing provision and freedom.
