Redeemer Church Of Waterford

The church in every generation has witnessed the silencing of bold gospel voices in death, yet the eternal God and His eternal word endures.In the last two months God has called to his nearer presence men who have been instruments in His hand for the bold proclamation of His truth: John MacArthur, James Dobson, Charlie Kirk, Voddie Baucham."Moses my servant is dead." What now? We mourn. We remember. We are resolute.

In this message Pastor Paul offers biblical illustrations of how God has used the evil intentions and actions of rebellious human beings to fulfill the eternal counsel of His own will to bring all things together under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

One of the most neglected aspects of the atoning work of Christ is his ascension into heaven. While we rightly give our attention to his resurrection, just as important to our salvation is his ascension and the work that he is doing even now in his session for us at his Father's right hand.

Anger. Rage. Revenge.All natural human responses to evil.But the Psalmist David offers followers of Jesus a better way.

The Bible says that when God's people sing, they proclaim, they teach, they encourage. Singing in worship isn't about me and my preferences. It's about the communication of God's word and His glory.

Dr. Ottavio Palombaro is the author of "From Rome to Reformed: The Confessions of an Italian Ex-Catholic."

The central theme of apostolic preaching is the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead because the central tenet of the Christian faith is the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead.

There are numberless gifts purchased for the believer by the blood of Christ which are bestowed upon us in the resurrection of the Lord Jesus from the dead. In this message we consider just three of those gifts: satisfaction, sanctification, and surety.

When the creed rightly declares that our Lord was "crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, suffered, and was buried," we must be careful to understand that the suffering of our Savior is not limited to what he endured for us on the cross.

What is the unity of the Spirit and what are the dispositions necessary to maintain it?

Though Mary the virgin was the willing human instrument, the conception of the eternal, only-begotten Son in her womb so that He might be made flesh is due only and entirely to the work of the Trinity.

In the Nicene Creed, the phrase "Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven" turns our attention from the person of Christ in relation to His Father as the eternal Son of God, to the work of Christ in relation to us as the Lord Jesus Christ - the eternal Son made flesh. This work of Christ for us takes place in two states of His incarnation in human flesh: His Humiliation and His Exaltation.What does it mean that this work is "for us"?

The most important thing about heaven is that the Lord Jesus Christ is there at the right hand of His Father. This truth only emphasizes the great grace displayed by the Son of God who willing left the glory of heaven to come to earth to save His people.

When Peter confesses, "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God," he is not making a definitive statement about the deity of Jesus. When Peter calls Jesus "Christ," he is affirming that Jesus, as a descendent of David, is the final fulfillment of the promise of a king to sit on David's throne. When Peter calls him "Son of God," he does not mean by that title what we mean by that title.So what does Peter mean when he says to Jesus, "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God"? And why is it fair to say that Peter is saying more than even he himself understands he is saying about the person of Jesus Christ?

The name 'Jesus' derives from the Aramaic 'Joshua' which means 'the LORD who saves.' Jesus was a common first century Jewish name. Because the people were anticipating a savior who would deliver them from their enemies, parents of infant sons would name them 'Jesus' in the hopes that their baby boy might be that savior.How are we to understand the eternal Son of God - who always existed - coming into existence in human flesh as a human being, to be the Savior of the world?

To fully understand what the Apostles meant when they called Jesus "Lord," it is necessary to understand the meaning of the unutterable Name of the LORD as God was called in the Old Testament.

What does it mean when the Nicene Creed affirms that our one Lord Jesus Christ was "begotten of His Father"? Was there a time when the Second Person of the Holy Trinity did not exist?Beyond that, what are the implications FOR US that the Son of God was begotten of His Father?

When the cherubim and the twenty-four elders sing, "Thou, Lord, hast created all things and for thy pleasure they are and were created," we are confronted with the absolute sovereignty of God over every created thing and the resulting tension between the will of the creature and the will of the Creator.

The first article of the Nicene Creed affirms "one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible."This one God is seated on an invisible throne from which He overrules all other powers which have been ordained by Him, both visible and invisible.What is to be the response of all created things to this Sovereign Ruler?
