Century Baptist Church Sermons

A Beautiful Disaster 8.7.22

There is nothing we face in life that is not subject to the power, authority and control of our Savior Jesus Christ. His authority is greater than any natural weather event, difficult situation we encounter and struggle we endure. Having defeated sin and death by His resurrection, Jesus lives to provide peace in the midst of the storms of our life when we humbly submit to, and call on Him. 

Inadequate Discipleship 7.31.22

Jesus came to radically transform our lives, priorities, goals and pursuits. As such, Jesus did that in a radical way: He died on the cross as the once-for-all sacrifice for sin. Jesus’ death on the cross was the satisfactory payment of God’s wrath (propitiation-1 John 2:2) against sin and sinful humanity. As a result, He who gave everything for us, desires us to give everything to Him.

Regaining Wonder 7.24.22

The power of Jesus was plain to see for all people as Jesus healed the centurion's servant, Peter's mother-in-law, and the many who were sick and oppressed by demons. The power of Jesus is plain to see for all people in His sacrificial death on the cross, burial and resurrection from the dead. As Jesus came out of the grave, the ultimate and final defeat of the devil was complete. Jesus came to heal our relationship with God our Creator which was ruined by sin.

The Ultimate Authority 7.17.22

From Matthew 7:28-8:4
Matthew records that Jesus was teaching them as one who had authority.
In every aspect and element of life there is some type of authority. Both the physical and spiritual life are governed by authority, a power greater than humanity.
That authority comes from God, is revealed and confirmed in Jesus Christ, God's Son, who lived, taught, suffered, died and rose from the dead as the sacrifice for sins, once for all.

A Tale of Two Houses 7.10.22

There are two kinds of foundations to build a house on: solid ground (rock) or shifting sand. One house will last; the other will be destroyed. 
There are two foundations to build your life on: Jesus or self. Jesus is the embodiment of the love, grace, and mercy of God which was demonstrated in Jesus' life, death, and resurrection.
Jesus is the rock upon which one can build their life experiencing purpose and peace.

Gauging the Constitution 7.3.22

Reliance on conscientious citizens
Testing of authenticity
Elimination of insufficient words
