Is Salvation a Matter of Your Free Will… or God’s?

The issue of the gospel is not how do we get sinful people to a holy God; but how does a holy God come to sinful people without violating His holiness and justice? The answer is cross (Heb 2:17). But in evangelism is God a frustrated suitor nervously waiting for sinful man to choose Him? Does man have a free will to choose God; or does God alone have a free will to choose man? (Romans 9:10-24)

EVANGELISM GOD’S WAY: The Sum of the Gospel by Charles Spurgeon

The sum of the gospel is found in Christ Jesus! He alone is our peace, life, truth, way, hope, righteousness, Lamb and Lion. Spurgeon once again lifts us to the throne room in heaven to gaze upon the only One worthy of our praise, adoration, worship, and eternal joy! (Col. 1:15-20, 2:9-10)

Cross Church Worship! October 31st at 10am Happy Reformation Day! “The Heart of the Gospel” (Romans 3:21-31)

THE CROSS CHURCH (10/3121)
WORSHIP SERVICE 10am
ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL 9am
CHILDREN’s CHURCH 10am

“The Heart of the Gospel” (Romans 3:21-31) This week at the CROSS Church we celebrate the Reformation where on October 31 in the year 1517 Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to Wittenberg‘s door to call a recalcitrant Roman Church to renounce a works based righteousness and embrace the true gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. That lifesaving Gospel can be defined as: we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, because of Christ alone! Amen? This Will be the focus, joy and celebration of this Lord‘s Day!

Please read Psalm 118:1-29 and Romans 10:9-11 to prepare your hearts and minds for worship.

I’m looking forward to a rich time in worship of making much of Jesus with you!

In His unfailing love and grace,
Pastor Steve

The Reason for Our Redemption (pt 1) “Sinners In The Hands of a Holy God” (Ephesians 2:1-3)

Pastor Steve unfolds the weighty doctrine of sin found in Ephesians 2:1-3. He’s titled it, “Sinners In The Hands of A Holy God.” May your hearts be stirred to the greatness of our salvation in Jesus because of the forgiveness of the depth of our own sin!

Wives and Husbands – The Mystery of Christ and the Church (pt 1) Ephesians 5:22-33

This section of God’s Word lays the foundation on what it means to be filled with the Spirit in three areas of relationships: wives and husbands; parents and children; slaves and masters. In part one, Pastor Steve begins to look at the roles of wives and husbands and how they reflect the Lord as a gift of grace to us in reversing the curse of the Fall.

Adult Sunday School at 9am

This is a tremendous way to begin the Lord’s Day!

Pastor Steve is leading us on a very powerful study on The Names of God! The focus is on the faithfulness, holiness and the grace of God to His covenant people.

Hope you can join us!
Acts 4:12

There’s Nothing Common About Grace

“Grace is a provision for men who are so fallen that they cannot lift the ax of justice; so corrupt that they cannot change their own natures; so adverse to God that they cannot turn to Him; so blind that they cannot see Him; so deaf that they cannot hear Him; and so dead that He Himself must open their graves.” -G.S. Bishop
