Emmanuel Baptist Church | Ruston Sermons

Our Lord gives peace. Peace with God=enmity with the world. Our peace will one day be complete.

We obey as Christ obeyed. Christ is present in the Spirit. Christ lives and ministers through us.

We all want to see God. The Father is seen in the Son. The Son is seen in us.

Christ commands the troubled to believe - Prophet. Christ secured our place with the Father - Priest. Christ will raise and receive His own - King.

Christ demonstrated love. Christ commanded us to love. Christ instructed us in love.

The Bodily Resurrection is essential. Christ was resurrected in glory. We have and will share in His glory.

Jesus is the Word of God. Jesus lit the way to God. Jesus revealed the Divine standard. Jesus provided salvation.

The Victory was won in the darkest hour. Our Lord won the victory by faithfulness. This victory gave light to the world.

Christ came to save the world.  Christ came to show us the Way. In Christ, we glorify God.

The Lord came to bring peace to His people. The poor and humble met Him with praise. The enemy's subjects looked on with fear. How will you meet Him?

He is worthy of extravagant worship. (vv. 3-4) He is glorified in our humble worship. (v. 4) This world is puzzled by true worship. (vv. 5-6) We seek the approval of only One. (vv. 7-8)

The World's gaze is fixed and low. The Lord calls us to obey in faith. The Lord would show us His glory!

Faith is tested in trials. Faith's object is the Word of God. Faith foreshadows the victory.

Trials come and go; God's love is constant. Trials are temporary; God's plans are eternal. Trials have a purpose; God is glorified through faith.

Christ's sheep are known by faith and obedience. (vv. 26-27) Christ guards and keeps His own.  (vv. 27-28) Christ's sheep have no reason to fear.  (vv. 29-30)

The Shepherd and the sheep are one. God is glorified through missional advance. Our Shepherd is our faithful example.

Our God has graciously provided a Door. This world advertises many doors to happiness. Christ is the only door to abundant life.

The Body is dynamic in nature, Always growing and building, Doggedly pursuing our Goal.
