Sermons About Propitiation
Through the Curtain - True Greatness
People pursue greatness. What is true greatness? Jesus defines it by his death. Greatness is access to the presence of God - as he turns aside wrath and is abandoned so that we can go through the curtain.

The Death of Jesus Christ
Peter teaches that Jesus bore our sins in His body on the tree. What does that mean? Why did this happen? What exactly happened on the cross? Why does any of this matter? These are the questions we addressed this week as we looked at the death of Jesus Christ.

The Way of Salvation: Part 3 (Romans 3:25-26)
Jesus is the sacrificial propitiation for our sins. Propitiation is the turning away of another's wrath. In Jesus's propitiating sacrifice, we see demonstrated our sin, God's just wrath against sin, our alienation from God, and the one perfect offering of sufficient worth to remove our guilt. Jesus demonstrates God's perfect justice in bearing the punishment for our sin, and he demonstrates God's perfect love in making a way for us to be reconciled to him in spite of our sin. How good of God!

A Great Price Was Paid by Christ for our Spiritual Freedom
The blood of Jesus pays the price for freedom from sin. Why is it that we live as slaves to sin if we are set free from sin? The blood of Jesus satisfies the wrath of God against sin-propitiation. God makes us new. He satisfies His anger through the blood of Christ. The blood of Jesus bring forgiveness of sin and its consequences. We are passed over by applying the blood of Jesus. The blood of Jesus should impact: Our Worship (meditate on blood of Christ 3X a day), Our Walk (relationship with God, freedom of sin, relationship with others), & our Witness.

A Ransom For Many
What is the meaning of the death of Jesus? Why did it happen? What does it mean for us today? The center of Christianity has always been the cross - remove the cross, and you don't have Christianity.
