↓Audio link to the sermon: Today’s message is from Hebrews 10:38, “But my righteous one will live by faith.” As I mentioned in the previous message, this scripture is a quote from Habakkuk 2:4. Those who believe in Christ are made justified and begin their journey of faith. Even in trials and difficulties, let us hold on to the word of God, have faith in heaven, and not lose sight of our goals. We would like to think about the word, faith today applying to our lives. Now, please read Hebrews 10: 37-11: 7.  Last week’s message theme was “You need to persevere so that… you will receive what he

　↓Audio link to the sermon: Today’s message is from Hebrews 10:36,「You need to persevere so that (when you have done the will of God), you will receive what he has promised.」Patience and faith, these words are central to today’s message. As pointed out in a previous message, the Early Church was about to go through a great persecution. In such an environment, many people seem to have abandoned their faith in Christ and tried to return to Judaism. As a result, strict warnings were given to these people. Along with harsh warnings, today’s passage encourages believers who are in difficult environments, with words of conviction, great reward, and patience. Now,

God sees us in faith as holy, and we can boldly come before Him. That was a brief summary of my previous message. In fact, we have completed our study in the theory of Christology as the high priest, which was from Chapter 5 to the previous passage. Today’s passage contains practical, important teachings based on what we have learned so far. Now, please

Mark 1:4-11 There are some passages in the bible that are hard to explain theologically. Like Jesus getting baptized in the River Jordan by John. It just doesn’t make sense theologically. After all, John’s baptism was a baptism of repentance and forgiveness. But our theology maintains that Jesus was without sin. So why would Jesus receive this baptism? Theologians and biblical scholars offer various explanations, but if you read them carefully, none of them are very convincing. It really is a sticky problem if you try to figure it out in theological terms. If you read Matthew’s account it actually mentions that John didn’t like the idea of baptizing Jesus

 Today’s message is from Hebrews 10:10, “We have been made holy.” Last week, we learned from Hebrews 9:15, the theme was “Christ is the mediator of a new covenant.” As the mediator of the new covenant, Christ has created a new era, the era of the New Testament. The Old Testament era is already over. We don’t have to go back to the old covenant anymore. The cross of Christ is enough for us. You and I are forgiven of our sins through the cross of Christ. God sees us in faith as holy, and we can boldly come before Him. Chapter 10 reveals the superiority and perfection of the

Matthew 1:17 says,「Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.」 ‭‭The first person’s name or event in each of the three categories is related to God’s covenant. Those covenants were fulfilled by Christ. That’s what we have learned last week. Let’s look back on that one more time. The first covenant was between God

↓Audio link to the sermon:  “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife,” (Matthew 1:20) Merry Christmas! Today, we are having Christmas service with you. The word Christmas comes from Christ and Mas, the meaning is to celebrate the birth of Christ or to worship Christ. Christ means the Savior in Greek and the Messiah in Hebrew. This messiah is born, it is the central prophecy of the Old Testament. During this year’s Advent, I have read the Old Testament prophecies of Isaiah. Let’s look at some of them together. Isaiah is a prophet who lived and was active about 700 years before
