The Great Salvation
Guest speaker Earl Cripe - Retired pastor, author and Bible commentator. Hebrews 2:3 - the great salvation is more than just being saved from eternal condemnation. We are justified by Christ's work, saved from our sins, and will, in the future, be saved from the very presence of sin. We are, however, expected to live a sanctified life here on earth for His glory.

The Biggest Sinner You Know
We all tend to think of others as being bigger sinners than ourselves. Paul saw it the other way around, and wanted us to as well. This statement is a summary of the whole Bible. We'll examine how Jesus saves, and why he saves sinners.

Who Do You Say I Am? (Mark 8:27 - 9:1)
Peter's confession that Jesus is the Christ -- and Jesus's response -- tell us so much about Jesus and his role. We see that He is the Son of Man and the Lord of all, but also the suffering servant. We see the miracle of the incarnation -- God become flesh. We see his work as our redeemer, humbling himself in suffering, sacrifice and death so that he might bring about our life and glorification. The only appropriate response, then, is for us to worship and obey him -- not so that we might earn his favor, for he has done perfectly for us what we could never accomplish. Rather, we submit ourselves to him in faith, joy and gratitude for who he is and what he has done for us. We are thus called to follow him by denying ourselves and dying to sin.

Satisfaction Guaranteed
The world honors those who think they have it all together. Jesus blesses those who hunger and thirst for righteousness- they will be filled, or satisfied. Now we seek to be just people building a just community as we await the consummation of our salvation in a just world when Jesus returns.
