The true sanctuary, the true "house of God" has come. As heaven and earth converged at Bethel with the promise of God to Jacob (Israel) that He would be with him wherever he went, so now Jesus has fulfilled that promise, as he stated to Nathanael, with the uniting of Heaven and earth in Himself. Yahweh as returned--in Jesus! Another great sermon Pastor Kit!

The unassumed is the unhealed! Kit does a masterful job (as usual) of explaining the importance of the "flesh" with regard to the incarnation of the Word. We (the church) speak of the "doctrine of the incarnation" without understanding the profound significance of what this really means. If Jesus did not assume our actual humanness, if he was not born in and within the "flesh" of our actual/essential human nature with the same capacity to be acted upon without and affected within in every way as we are, then he has not accomplished anything on our behalf because he has no connection to us. Christ cannot heal a humanity that he has not touched within himself. But by assuming our actual nature he has acted within our humanness to heal us by opposing and conquering sin in the flesh and thereby taking us up into himself to join us to the very life of God in the Spirit! This is a sermon that needs to be absorbed into our minds and hearts.

Love Pastor Culver's treatment of the Logos doctrine. As he said, these verses are so familiar to us that typically read them without much thought about what John is saying, other than Jesus is "the Word" that was with God in the beginning. But as Kit is showing us, that thinking does not begin to express the deep truths John is putting forth and is possibly even a detriment to a full and correct understanding of what John is saying. These sermons on the Logos doctrine are incredibly profound and illuminating. Thanks Pastor Culver.

Thank God for your faithfulness, for helping us walk with Christ! Heb. 3:14-15

His coming~Jesus, the Son of God Very encouraging; knowing & relationships with Messiah! What was before Christ & what comes after Christ. Better understanding of the Bible, as a whole

Another must listen sermon brothers and sisters. We so 'naturally' understand what the scriptures are, God's purposes, what the church is, what the Gospel is. Saints may we no longer view any man, any portion of God's revealed word, or His kingdom in a natural, old man, old Adam, earthly, fleshly, carnal way again! God's ways and thoughts are SOOOOO much higher than ours. Said another way, we have not come to Mt. Sinai but to Mt. Zion, the heavenly Jerusalem, the one that John sees in Revelation coming down out of heaven. Listen to this man teach the scriptures. At the very least he will give you a lot to think about (scripturally) and perhaps cause you to repent of the way all people naturally think, and thus 'live'!

Eschatology matters Saints! Hear this sermon brothers and sisters. Even Peter was rebuked by Christ for thinking of the ways of man instead of the ways of God. Without a holistic, eschatological view of God's unfolding plan of Creation, Israel, new creation in Christ, and ultimately cosmic restoration (new heavens/earth), we quite easily (naturally) reduce the Bible (God's testimony of Himself) into a rule book for living "our" temporal lives. And then, like little children, say "my verse is right and yours is wrong" and, like the Corintians, His body divides over all sorts of earthly things. How did Saul/Paul know all the words of the O. T. scriptures and yet later counted all things before knowing Christ rubbish (Philippians 3) because he didn't know the Old Testament was portraying life in Christ and ultimately the summing-up of all things in Him. But when taught by Christ, he knew life was "In Him" and consequently our lives should be lived "In Him. Let us all know Him as the scriptures speak of Him and His purposes - such that we grow up into the fullness of Him who is the head. For his glory and our faithful witness to a lost and dying world.

What is a Christian? What is life in his body? How do we view sufferings? This sermon addressees all three biblically. Not surprisingly, God's word paints a reality quite different than the one we 'naturally' tend to conclude. Check it out!

Do you wonder how the Jews rejected Jesus, the one promised throughout the O.T. (missed their day of visitation)? Do you wonder how Paul, a Pharisee of Pharisees and Nicodemus The teacher of Israel initially missed Him? And what about us two thousand years later. How do we know we're not making the same mistake? Jesus said in Matthew 7:21-23 that many will say to me Lord Lord, yet they must depart from Him because he never knew them. Listen to this sermon Christian. It is worthy of your time and more importantly worthy of your witness to the one true God, the Holy One of Israel, the Messiah, Jesus the Son and the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Keep learning disciple!

Listen Christian, please! This humble servant teaches on one of the great N.T. mysteries - Resurrection of our bodies. Hopefully you are a Berean and thus value greatly knowing everything that God's word reveals about himself and his plans. If so, this sermon will challenge and stretch you. It will give you a glorious view of God, will encourage you, strengthen your faith and launch you into worship as you see the scriptures clarify this glorious subject. There are several views on this topic and this one makes a lot of sense as we consider ALL the scriptures! Check it out, to see if it is so!

Every Christian should hear this sermon! What am I to understand Jesus to mean when he said in Matthew 5:17 that I didn't come to abolish the law but to fulfill it? The law is a monstrously large topic in God's word and yet is understood quite differently by Christians - isn't it worth your time (for His namesake) to understand it rightly? This sermon discusses the various viewpoints and then offers one that once again "coagulates" the scriptures! By that I mean it holds true because it is confirmed by the rest of the scriptures rather than violating some other portion(s). Be a Berean, see if it is so. God bless!

For all who love our Lord PLEASE LISTEN to this sermon!!! Can you clearly articulate the Biblical Good News (and use scripture to show 'it is so')? Can you articulate how THE Gospel and THE Kingdom relate to one another? This sermon will equip you to do both, and thus to biblically fulfill the Great Commission AND walk in a manner worthy of the good news! No Christian wants to preach a different gospel, yet many ARE preaching a mere shadow of the biblical Gospel. Spend an hour and a half and hear this sermon, PLEASE! If you only have an hour, listen to the last hour. If you only have half an hour, listen to the last half-hour but listen to it, PLEASE! And then listen to the whole sermon more than once. Proclaiming the (biblical) gospel is our central mission and the power of God in our lives. Know THE Gospel brothers and sisters - because we simply can't live what we don't know. Do it for His honor and namesake. Amen.

If you want to understand sin, human depravity, the other master we all 'naturally' serve, how big the log in your own eye really is, listen to this sermon! There are only two ways of thinking, His or.... But God, but Christ, but now! Praise God!

The witness of Christ's church is often weak at best. The last 10-12 minutes of this EXCELLENT sermon tell us why. I pray all Church Elders listen to it so they build up their saints using God's foundation, rather than human wisdom. And I pray all believers listen to it so they know whether their Elders are faithful undersheppards.

A MUST listen! This one sermon provides MUCH to consider regarding: why the fall happened, 'free' will Vs. God's Sovereignty, Israel's role in God's glorious plan, what MUCH of the bible is repeatedly showing us, the church's role and reasons for its weakness (just like national Isreal's). Kit' S sermons constantly shows us how the bible is divinely connected and as Christ said in John 5:39, how all the scriptures testify if Him - and does so in a way that breaks-down the weakness of various theological grids by challenging their presuppositions. Christians would all affirm the scriptures are sufficient, inerrant, etc. but Kit has been gifted to show that in a way any Berean can see from scripture. Amen brother!
