The "fake commission" says we can be witnesses for Jesus without ever saying a word about the gospel. The Great Commission says that we are to actively use words in bringing others to Christ. Which are you practicing? In this message, Pastor John describes how we can be the kind of people who introduce men and women to Jesus as faithful witnesses.

Title: Jesus Delivers us from Wrath

Many people think of God in the Old Testament being a God of wrath, while God in the New Testament is a God of Love. In this message, Pastor John looks at what the Bible teaches, and how Jesus showed the best expression of God's love for us while enduring the worst of God's wrath in our place.

Jesus Delivers us from Idolatry
Genesis 12-14 | Sun, Feb 10, 2013 | Pastor John Stillman

Of all the people who have ever lived, one of the most important, other than Jesus himself, is pherhaps the man, Abraham. But rather than idolize this man and worship him as some do, we ought to turn our attention to see the transformation God made in his life and instead worship the Lord Jesus who transformed him. In this message, Pastor John walks through Abraham's deliverance from idolatry to treasuring Jesus as his reward.

Merciful Like Jesus
