This is what we preach

How Will You Stand in God's Courtroom?

Scripture Verses
  • Micah 6:1-8

God presents His case against Israel, reminding them of His faithful deliverance and asking what He has done to weary them. Rather than external sacrifices, God requires justice, mercy, and humble walking with Him—standards we cannot meet on our own. Only through Christ can we stand in God's courtroom, as He alone creates the fear of the LORD that produces true righteousness and acceptance before God.

How Do You Come to Fear God so That You Do What Is Right and Are Acceptable to Him?

Scripture Verses
  • Acts 10:34-38

Peter's proclamation reveals that God shows no favoritism but accepts all who fear Him and do what is right through faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus, anointed by God with the Holy Spirit and power, is the Savior who brings peace and deliverance from evil. Through Christ's anointing work, God has also anointed us to receive His salvation and become acceptable in His sight.

What Do You Think of Christ?

Scripture Verses
  • John 1:14-18

The Word who became flesh is fully God and fully man, dwelling among us to reveal the Father's glory. From His infinite fullness, believers receive grace upon grace—an unending supply that surpasses the law given through Moses. Jesus Christ alone makes God known, as the only-begotten Son who has perfectly revealed the Father whom no one has ever seen.

Throughout This Coming Year: Listen, Manage, and Trust

Scripture Verses
  • Matthew 2:19-23

Joseph's faithful obedience in returning to Israel with Jesus demonstrates how God guides His people through His Word throughout life's journey. As Joseph listened to God's direction, managed the care of Jesus and Mary wisely, and trusted God's promises even amid danger, he models the Christian life for us. God remained faithful to fulfill prophecy by leading the family to Nazareth, reminding us that He keeps His promises as we navigate each new year.

A Map of the Coming Messiah: Christ Is Our Home and Ultimate Destination

Scripture Verses
  • Isaiah 49:17-18

The Lord promises that His scattered children will return while their destroyers depart, reversing the devastation that once marked His people. God gathers His people from all directions, transforming them into precious jewels that adorn His Church like a bride's ornaments. Christ's Church becomes our true home and ultimate destination, where we are not merely welcomed but treasured as beautiful adornments that glorify Him.
