New Jerusalem

New Jerusalem (15)

150: A Foretaste of Glory (Walking with Jesus Series #016: Matt. 5:1-12)

Is the Sermon on the Mount evangelistic, or related to matters of sanctification? Is it applicable to church-age believers, or was it merely for the first century Jews? Pastor Hollandsworth discusses the errors of interpretation in this great teaching of Jesus and explains the purpose of the Sermon. He also describes the Beatitudes and the promises of reward.

148: A Man Like No Other (Walking with Jesus Series #014: Luke 4:31-44)

Christ’s healing ministry – including exorcisms – not only confirmed His authority as the Son of God, but also pointed to the Messianic kingdom. Pastor Hollandsworth shows the connection between miracles and the kingdom, defines the “gospel of the kingdom,” and explains the origin of demons.

147: Christ’s Near-Death Experience (Walking with Jesus Series #013: Luke 4:14-30)

In the synagogue at Nazareth, Jesus read from the Isaiah scroll, applying the text to Himself, by concluding with the statement, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Pastor Hollandsworth discusses the glorious nature of Christ’s ministry, as described in Luke 4:18-19, and explains why the people marveled at Him in the synagogue, yet moments later were eager to throw him off the rocky cliff at the edge of town.

130: The Most Misinterpreted Verse of the Bible (Walking with Jesus Series #001: Matt. 3:1-12)

John the Baptist introduced the ministry of Jesus with a call for the nation to repent. Most evangelicals assume this is one of the requirements for salvation. However, Pastor Hollandsworth demonstrates clearly from the text that repentance is NOT a requirement for salvation, for John was preaching to believers, not unbelievers.

097: Dividing Soul and Spirit (Hebrews Series #08: Heb. 4:12-13)

God can divide soul and spirit and even joints and marrow. What purpose does this serve? Pastor Hollandsworth explains this Judgment Seat text and God’s purpose for dividing.
