God’s Final Word, Part 2

July 4, 2022

In a brand new study of the book of Hebrews titled, Christ is Better, we’re taking an in-depth look at how all the stories in the Old Testament are pictures and signs that point ahead to Jesus. Jesus is the single focus of the whole Bible, he’s the pinnacle of history, and he’s God’s Final Word.

Phrases like “ask Jesus into your heart” or “give your life to Jesus” may be well intentioned, but they can often be unclear—offering false assurance to those who aren’t truly saved and causing unnecessary doubt for those who are.

Pastor J.D. explains that salvation is not a magic phrase or emotional moment. It’s a posture of trust in the promise of God, one that begins at a specific point in time and continues for the rest of our lives. If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt or want to share the gospel more clearly, this book, available in print or digital form, is for you.

We’ve come to the final message in our series on the book of Judges titled Broken Saviors, and we’re looking at a collection of stories from Judges, Chapters 17 to 21–accounts that reveal the tragic outcome when a society turns its back on God’s leading.

Most of us have a friend or family member who’d call themself an atheist. But before you write that person off for their godless view of life, it’s possible you may share something in common. This message looks at the final chapters of the book of Judges. It’s a time when the Israelites turned their backs on God’s leading. They still acknowledged him with their lips, but they’d become, in essence, a nation of atheists. And we often fall into that same trap.

Samson’s incredible strength made him seem larger than life, but we’re finding out that we’ve got a lot more in common with him than we think. Just like Samson, we’ve all fallen into the trap of our own desires. So what’s the answer?

Have you ever been told to “follow your heart?” This philosophy is pushed on us from a young age, showing up in kids’ movies and popular music. I bet you can remember one of those songs right now! But Pastor J.D. reveals that your own heart is usually your worst enemy. This message is the third part of a four-part message on the life of Samson.

Have you ever finished the first book or movie in a series and felt frustrated or anxious with the ending? You’re ready for the next installment to see how everything comes together, right? Today, we’re continuing our study called “Broken Saviors.” As we come to the end of Judges later this week, we’ll find out that the entire book is just one portion of a much bigger story. And it’s all pointing ahead to a glorious ending!

During this message, Pastor J.D. invites us to look at one of the most familiar characters in the Old Testament. His life teaches us that God can accomplish amazing things through ordinary people--when they submit to his leadership.

Man is incapable of constructing, or living up to, the true Gospel. In fact, left to our own devices we tend to twist and misconstrue what God designed as perfect. Our current series is called Broken Saviors.

This month, Pastor J.D. is walking us through the fascinating book of Judges. In this message, we’ll see how over and over again, God’s people substituted his plan for their own, with tragic consequences.

Do you have a tendancy to take a bit too much credit for your success while overlooking God’s blessing in your life? Even with the best of intentions, the human heart always defaults toward pride. Beginning in Judges Chapter 8, we see how Gideon’s victory as a warrior began to inflate his ego. Rather than giving glory to God, he chose to act like a king who deserved special treatment. In a real sense, Gideon manufactured his own “broken savior.”
