Matthew 17:19-23- Nothing Will Be Impossible for You

August 13, 2023 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

Are you like me and some times feel weak, & ineffectual? We are not alone. On one occasion the disciples failed in casing out a demon, and they asked Jesus why. His response was both a rebuke and an encouragement. Matthew 17:20 “Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if […]

Matthew 10:40-42 The Certainty of Reward in Receiving God’s People

June 20, 2021 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

It is not just those who receive (aid, feed, help, refresh) miracle working Apostles who will be rewarded. It is not just those who receive (aid, feed, help, refresh) powerful preachers who have suffered for the cause of Christ who will be rewarded. It is not even just those who receive (aid, feed, help, refresh) […]

Ephesians 6:18-20 Warfare by Prayer

July 19, 2020 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

In Ephesians 6:18 Paul urges believers to pray at all times, with all prayer and supplication, with all perseverance, and to make supplication for all the saints. When the word all is used four times in one verse we better pay attention! We pray that this sermon helps you evaluate your prayer life and aids […]

I Thessalonians 1:1 The Grace and Peace of Being In God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ

January 8, 2017 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

Do you go to church? Nope. No one does. The church is not a place to which you can go. It is a people who are called out of the world into union with God Himself. Listen as Pastor Matt looks at the church’s vital union with God and the resulting grace and peace of […]

Philippians 4:1 An Urgent Plea to a Beloved People

August 28, 2016 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

After reminding the Philippians of their citizenship in heaven, of their returning Savior, of their new bodies in the resurrection, and of the great consummation of all things that will take place at Christ’s return, Paul changes his tone completely in Philippians 4:1; from exultation to urgent plea. Paul’s love for the Philippians, his desire […]

Philippians 3:15-16 The Imperfections of the Perfect

July 24, 2016 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

Immediately after saying in Philippians 3:12 that he has not yet been perfected Paul immediately includes himself as numbered with those who are perfect. Is this a contradiction in the Bible? Not at all! A paradox is a statement or group of statements that is/are seemingly contradictory or that goes against one’s natural intuition. Philippians […]

Philippians 2:17-18 Beyond Teaching and Motivation to Example and Experience

April 24, 2016 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

You have probably heard it said, ‘Do as I say do not do as I do.’ NONSENSE! That sentiment is the opposite of discipleship and was antithetical to the ministry of the Apostle Paul. Paul has instructed the Philippians toward humility and Christian love in Philippians 2:1-11, and now in Philippians 2:17-18 he points to […]

Philippians 2:12-13 Work Out What God Worked In

February 14, 2016 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

Even people who know very little Scripture often know that the Bible says, ‘Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.’ Often people use this text as an anti-church proof text. They quote this verse implying that the church is unimportant, and that a person’s religious faith is simply between them and God. They […]
