The wrong side of history
Pastor Jim Fikkert
Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of […]
The first stone
Pastor Jim Fikkert
Now in the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?” This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said […]
Sermon Prep | A Thief in the Night
Pastor Jim Fikkert
Matthew 24.36-25.13 But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. 24.36 Every few years a well-meaning Christian leader claims to have ‘seen the signs’ and makes a declaration of Jesus’ return. Every time, the date and time passes, the followers are […]
What about all of the other sins?

Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. On account of these the wrath of God is coming.

Sermon Prep | The Coming of the Son of Man
Pastor Jim Fikkert
Matthew 24.29-35 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. 24.35 There are two points in life that matter more than any other: birth and death. The same is true for the world […]
Living in a world of chaos
Pastor Jim Fikkert
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, […]
