Jesus, the Triumphant Lord, Part 1 of 2
April 6, 2012
Many people have said things about Jesus, adding their biases to the biblical account of His life. But the most attested fact of ancient history is the bodily resurrection of Jesus. It is that resurrection which gives us the promise of our own resurrection. God raised Him in power, and He will raise all who believed in His Son.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

On the Mount of Olives outside Jerusalem is a church called Dominus Flevit, which means “the tears of God.” Near this spot, Jesus wept over a city which was soon to be destroyed. God would use the Romans to level the temple in judgment since the nation of Israel did not acknowledge the day of their visitation by the Son of God. In 70 AD, not one stone of the temple was left upon another.

On Palm Sunday we commemorate the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem just days before His trial and crucifixion. Even today, pilgrims to the Holy Land walk the road Jesus walked, imagining the momentous events which led to the sacrifice that makes salvation possible. Jesus entered Jerusalem as a king unlike any who had ever preceded Him.

The Beatitudes are the heart of the Sermon on the Mount. These eight statements sum up the kind of character God wants us to have. Eight times Jesus pronounces a blessing on those who are poor in spirit, who mourn, who are gentle, who hunger for righteousness, who are merciful, who are pure in heart, who are peacemakers, and who endure persecution.

No one has ever spoken words of greater simplicity or power than the words Jesus spoke in the famous Sermon on the Mount. Set against the backdrop of the Sea of Galilee, this sermon contains more truth about the human heart than any other sermon. As a master teacher, Jesus took aim at the inner man and left a mark that still reverberates two thousand years later.

Jesus had no fear of the authorities. Throwing money changers out of the temple proves that. And many of the things He said often angered the religious leaders in Jerusalem. In today’s message, we’ll take a vivid look at the Son of God confronting those who should have seen Him as Israel’s great hope.

Politicians do it, so do the media elite — they spin the news to their point of view, making truth a casualty. Getting to the genuine Jesus is crucial, since He is the way, the truth, and the life, and no man comes to the Father except through Him. Join us as we begin a series that looks at Jesus without the spin that distorts our understanding of the Son of God.

All of the good deeds ever done in the world cannot erase the guilt of sin that even a single member of the human race bears before a holy God. The Bible says that all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags. Only God’s righteousness opens heaven’s doors. That is why we are deceived if we believe that “God helps those who help themselves.” Today we unmask a final lie about God.

“God helps those who help themselves…” This is a phrase a lot of people mistakenly think is in the Bible. Certainly we need to take the initiative in many areas of life. But when it comes to the vital issue of salvation, it is crucial to understand what God really says. The gospel proclaims that we cannot help ourselves. Only Jesus can save us.

Lasting financial gain is often short-circuited by an investor’s desires to fast profits. The same is true in life. Going for immediate pleasures can short-circuit our potential to enjoy the overwhelming pleasures of God — pleasures that can last a lifetime. In today’s message, Pastor Lutzer will give us some good reasons why we should think long-term.

We have all seen those cartoons where the devil whispers into one ear, and an angel whispers into the other. The implication is that choosing sin means happiness, and saying “no” means a humdrum existence. The devil whispers the lie that when we follow the Lord, we kiss all our fun goodbye. Today we will combat another lie about God that you might already believe.
