Because Jesus is real, we are a family of faith, fully engaged, transforming our community and our world. Crossroads is a family of faith made up of thousands of stories of God’s redemption. We are people for whom Jesus has lived and died, saved by grace, in process and growing in faith together as we simply respond to Jesus.
Theres a wideness in Gods mercy. Blessed are the merciful for they shall receive mercy. The Apostles message was of their merciful savior. Our mercy comes from Jesus also through His amazing grace! Thank you Jesus for grace reigning in us, and for eternal mercy.
Great sermon this morning pastor. I didn’t know about what you preached about. I need to read a little bit more. I knew the outlines of the story, but you got into great detail. The word so much to offer.
Jesus said in Matt. 24.29-31. Immediately AFTER the tribulation the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not gave her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes (nations) of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds (east, west, north, and south) from one end of heaven to the other. The great tribulation will be worst than anyone could imagine. Read Isaiah 24 paying attention to verse 23.
Babylon the great, the “Mother of harlots” came out of the wilderness (verse 17: 3). and grew grest with all manner of luxuries and luxurious lifestyle so much so that the nations would like to be like her. She grew great also with the merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and pearls, and horses, and chariots, and SLAVES, and ‘souls of men’. (all manner of sexual immorality and evil doings). EDIT: Rev. 18.
Havent listened to X-roads for awhile. Church hasnt come together here, my lease is up and am moving back to my hometown. A relationship is not working out so well, so im discouraged about that area of my life. But not spiritually. Expecting things of others who do not obey my requests and commands is not how the body of Christ works in the church. My prayer for what a restraining order, will protect me ,off the reservation , for people from a past evil done to me ,who have not been born again nor concerned with changing from addictions, or are backslidden to such a state ,that they dont care about the things of Jesus, grace, abundant life, serving , and joy anymore, is ungoing. Successful steps have been taken by me to have all things work out to Gods glory , so my life is as straightened out as i can understand .
I pray you find or attend a local church. I was only doing online sermons until a co-worker challenged me to attend in person. Being accepted into a growing church family has been one of the biggest blessings.
May I please respectfully correct the pastor? Daniel said that he was a husband to Lynn, but then he called her his bride. If he is a bridegroom, then she is his bride, but then at 52:24 he correctly said, "My wife." We are currently the Bride of Christ because He is still our Bridegroom; but when He returns in the clouds to take us up to be with Him and to go with Him to the Father's house to consummate the marriage, we will be the wife of God, no longer His Bride. I'm rejoicing in this knowledge, and hoping that every day will be that special day.
Thank you for such a powerful sermon,we don't acquire what God has promised us due to lack of faith and disobedience so profound. May God have mercy on us🙏
