The Preaching of the Cross
Series: (All)
February 7, 2021
Reverend Kevin Ussery
1 Corinthians 1:10-19
 
The world thinks we are crazy for believing in a God that we have never seen. The preaching of the cross is strange and shocking, but it is a simple story. Christ rose for sinners like us and died for sinners like us. All other so-called religions of the world say that you need to get yourself together and then come meet us. But the praise worthy, marvelous thing about Jesus and the Christian religion is that He doesn’t wait for us to get ourselves together. He comes even when you are in your sin.

    Leviticus 16:5-22
     
    The idea of a scapegoat is not new in this culture. We are always blaming somebody. We are always putting the blame on somebody else claiming, “the devil made me do it.” A lot of times, preachers preach about the congregation getting right, but in this book of Leviticus, the man of God has to get right too. Then the people can get right. And when they both get right, then God can do some mighty things.

    Psalm 27:1-14
     
    When you need strength, power, and courage to make it through another week, you can go to the book of Psalms. Each one of the Psalms contains a powerful word when the soul needs to be encouraged.

    Mark 8:11-21
     
    The only person that you can truly trust and believe is Jesus. You have to surrender all to Him. Sometimes you have to give it all up and follow Him. It is easy to overlook the obvious when it is staring you right in the face. The answer is obvious. It is right in your face and you can’t see it because you are looking for something hard, difficult, strange, and mysterious. All you have to do is accept a Jesus. He will work it out.

    Nahum 1:5-8
     
    No matter how calamitous your situation, the Lord is good. No matter how dark your circumstances, the Lord is good. No matter how unhappy your situation or how broken your heart is, the Lord is good. It may seem like things are not going to turn around, but the Lord is good. It may look like the enemy has the upperhand, but the Lord is good. It may look like you won’t ever stop crying, but the Lord is good. It may seem like every time you take two steps forward, the devil drags you three steps backwards, but the same God is STILL good.

    Philippians 2:9-11
     
    The name of Jesus stands out over every other name. The name Jesus means Jehovah and salvation. The very mention of the name Jesus means salvation. God does not love us because Jesus died for us. Jesus died for us because God loved us.

    Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 1:21-25
     
    It offends the culture to mention the Christ, but there is no Christmas without Christ. Who is Jesus? In the Old Testament a name stood for a persons reputation, fame, or glory. The word for name translated in the Old Testament literally means a mark or brand. People either loved up to their name or lived down to their name.

    John 1:1-14
     
    John puts the greatest delivery of all time into human context. The first 18 verses of the gospel of John is the prologue. The prologue summarizes how the word was with God in the beginning. The word came into the spirit of time and history, then came into existence so that we could see Jesus in the flesh. The son of God was sent into the world to become the Jesus of history, so that the glory and grace of God might be uniquely and perfectly disclosed.

    1 Timothy 1:12-17
     

    Don’t let anybody criticize you because of your youth and your inexperience. Whenever you tell your testimony, whenever you share your faith, always remember to tell them what you were before God got His hands on you. Sometimes we look down on people just because we didn’t go through what they are. But you better thank God for keeping you from having to go through it. He may not have brought you from it, but thank God that He kept you from it.

    1 Thessalonians 5:16-28
     
    God is not going to bless an ungrateful person. You worship out of your experience. You worship God based on what He’s already done. The only way to truly and properly worship is out of what you have been through. When you know what the Lord has done, nobody has to beg you or make you worship Him. Because of your experience with what the Lord has done you come with a spirit of worship down in your soul.
