Family Secrets

Speaker: Pastor Ken Burgess
Series: The Gospel of Mark #15
Title: “Family Secrets”
Scripture: Mark 4:3-9,14-20
Date: 04-09-17 Sun. AM

Description: Have you ever wondered why some are with us then depart from us, why they profess but don’t continue, and why they are not here (or in any other church)? All of these questions can be explained in the parable today!

As Jesus proclaimed the gospel of the kingdom not everybody believed, in fact, more rejected the gospel than believed. Because of the hardness of the people’s hearts, Jesus taught in parables so those seeking truth could understand and those who hardened their heart could not understand (Mark 4:10-12).

Three observations:

1. The parable of the four soils illustrates the problem Jesus faced and the reactions people have to the gospel.

2. This parable also teaches that people don’t lose their salvation, they just never possessed salvation.

3. If someone seems to have lost their salvation, they were just one of the first three hearts (Mark 4:23).

Liar, Lunatic, or Lord?

Speaker: Pastor Ken Burgess
Series: The Gospel of Mark #14
Title: “Liar, Lunatic, or Lord?”
Scripture: Mark 4:20-35
Date: 04-02-17 Sun. PM

Description: By stating He was Lord of the Sabbath (Mark 2:23-3:6), Jesus clearly claimed to be God. He left His hearers with only three options: they would think of him as delusional, demonic, or divine. Despite His teaching, miracles, and authentication by Old Testament prophets, many refused to believe in Him. Ultimately, the eternal destiny of everyone is determined by what they do with Jesus.

Speaker: Pastor Ken Burgess
Title: “Dogs, Pearls, and Pigs”
Scripture: Matt. 7:6
Date: 03-26-17 Sun. PM

Description: “Judge not that you may not be judged!” Isn’t that the response we get from unbelievers and Christians who don’t interpret the Bible correctly? They say “think the best of others and be positive.” What does this text really teach about judging? What does it not teach? And what about the dogs, pearls, and pigs?

Lord of the Sabbath – Part 2

Speaker: Pastor Ken Burgess
Series: The Gospel of Mark #13
Title: “Lord of the Sabbath – Part 2”
Scripture: Mark 3:1-6
Date: 03-19-17 Sun. PM

Description: What is legalism or a legalist? Legalism is adding to the Bible man-made rules or traditions for salvation or spirituality! A legalist is the one who does it. The Pharisees had developed a system of 613 laws, 365 negative commands and 248 positive laws. By the time Christ came on the scene, they had produced a heartless, cold, and arrogant brand of righteousness. Jesus directly confronted the man-made traditions and rules of the self-righteous Pharisees that added their oral traditions to the Biblical Sabbath.

In this two-part message, Pastor Ken addresses two incidents where Jesus challenged the Pharisees regarding their understanding of the Sabbath. This sermon presents the second example, dealing with healing a man with a withered hand on the Sabbath day.
