Sermons About Satan
Spiritual Warfare
Through the book of Ephesians Paul has continually described the blessings of those who are "in Christ". In spite of all of the truths you need to know that it will not be easy. We have an enemy working to thwart God's purposes in our lives and Paul describes this struggle as warfare.

Under Authority
In part 6 of our series, The Garden and The Gospel, Pastor Jeremy teaches why true freedom, and true fulfillment is found under God's authority. Because ... only God has a position of absolute justice; only God has a power that can change us; and only God has a promise we can fully trust in.

The War On Love
"Remove the benefits of his love for God, and Job will turn from God," says Job's cynical accuser. Suffering follows and puts this accusation to the test. While we cannot settle for simplistic answers to the question of why bad things happen to good people, we can find courage knowing that "Love Wins."

The Church of Pergamum: Revelation 2
The church at Pergamum, much like many of our American churches, was filled with three kinds of people: the faithful, the compromisers, and the people who didn’t know which group was correct. As the political capital of the region, emperor worship was at its zenith in Pergamum; it was the place where Satan had his throne. In this context, Jesus rebukes the faithful for tolerating people in their church who are both compromising and telling others that it is ok to compromise. He calls the church at Pergamum and us to confront sin, root it out, and fight it. Our Savior calls us to repent of everything that threatens us from knowing and experiencing the fullness of joy that he has come to offer.

The Church in Smyrna: Revelation 2:8
The church in Smyrna was made up of poor people who had endured many hardships. Jesus, the First and the Last, who defeated death, knows their tribulation, poverty, and the slander from the Jews that they have endured. Jesus tells them that he hears them, and yet they continue suffering. Not only does he call the church to not be afraid, he calls them to be faithful by treasuring him above all else, even to the point of death. He promises that the sufferings we experience right now, no matter how heavy they are, will one day seem light and momentary compared to the glory that he holds in store for his people. He suffered to end our suffering. He suffered so that no matter how much we have suffered at death, it is over. We will have an eternity with him.

Standing Against the Schemes of the Devil (Ephesians 6 10-20) 10-11-09
In contrast to popular ideas on spiritual warfare, the Bible teaches us that our main response to the Devil is not offensive, but defensive; we are called to resist him as we live, in word and deed, in light of Jesus' victory on the cross.
