Philippians: Be Present in the Gospel

 
Acts 16:30–31 Then he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
The Book of Philippians begins in Acts 16 when Paul brings the Gospel to Philippi for the very first time. As he closes out his letter to this Church he loved so much, he urges them to "Stand frim thus in the Lord" (4:1) How do we do that? Be present in the Gospel.

Speak Life or Death

"But no human can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. Wit it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so." James 3:8-10
Out tounge has incredible power. We speak life and death with it. So what do you speak? Sermon delivered to the Galena Bible Church, Sunday April 30th, 2017 by pastor Chris Kopp.

The Armor of God

Sermon delivered to the Galena Bible Church, Sunday April 9th, 2017 by Martin Hornfischer.

Do you Believe? _ Who do you serve?

Romans 6:22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life.
Every Christian has a choice, whether they will serve the flesh or serve the Spirit. Who you obey is who your master is. In this sermon we look at the work of God in sanctification or the process of changing our life to be what God intended.

Do you Beleive? - You must be born again

Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3
It is a supernatural thing when God changes a human heart. No less miraculous than the recreation of the universe at the end of the age. This is what Jesus points to when he says we must be born again.

Do you Believe? _ Why the Cross?

16 Thus he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleannesses of the people of Israel and because of their transgressions, all their sins. Leviticus 16:16.
The Cross of Christ is the central point of history. But why? Why the cross? In this sermon we'll look to the Old Testament forshadowing of the cross in the Day of Atonement.
