Through His death and resurrection, Jesus demonstrated absolute authority over sin, death, and the grave, giving His own life as the ransom that secured our eternal redemption. His blood doesn’t merely forgive us—it cleanses, sanctifies, and makes us holy, preparing us as God’s dwelling place to be permanently indwelt by His Spirit.

How Do You See God - Jennifer Merrill by Forward Church Sermons

On the Day of Atonement, God gave Israel a vivid picture of sin being judged, transferred, and carried away through the two goats. In Jesus, that shadow becomes reality: He bore our sins, removed them from us, and accomplished once for all what the old covenant could only picture year after year.

Joshua didn’t hear a different promise than the rest of Israel; he simply believed what God had already said and interpreted the giants through that promise. Because he knew God was with them, he could look at an intimidating enemy and say with confidence, “They are bread for us.” He mixed faith with the promise, and that faith changed how he saw the problem in front of him.

What you focus on shapes what you see, and when you continually complain about what’s wrong, you can become blind to God’s provision and even begin to loathe the manna at your feet. Instead of letting the snakes of life consume your attention, mix God’s promises with faith, keep your eyes on Jesus, sow gratitude, and let love—not spiritual elitism—be the true measure of your maturity.

Will God Throw Me Away? - Clint Byars by Forward Church Sermons

America's founding ideals were deeply influenced by the biblical understanding that our rights come from our Creator and that true liberty begins with a people who are governed from within rather than controlled from without. This message explores how the freedom Christ purchased for us—freedom from the curse of the law and righteousness by faith—helped shape the language of liberty found in our nation's founding documents. Discover why lasting freedom is ultimately found not in government, but in the transforming power of the gospel that produces truly free people.
