Skip Heitzig: Jesus Christ — The Centerpiece Of Scripture From Beginning To End

The Bible has a single message: Christ. There are 66 books, each written by different authors and for different reasons. But think about it. Genesis talks about creation and the fall, and then immediately in chapter 3, we see the first prediction of the solution for the fall (see v. 15). It's the first messianic prophecy.

Skip Heitzig: When A Secret Believer Steps Forward In Courage And Faith

I want to look at somebody who you rarely, if ever, hear a sermon about: Joseph of Arimathea. He was the man who buried Jesus, but we don't even know very much about him. Joseph of Arimathea is mentioned in all four Gospels. He is described as a rich man who became “a disciple of Jesus” (Matthew 27:57), “a prominent council member” (Mark 15:43), “a good and just man” (Luke 23:50-51), and “a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews” (John 19:38).

Skip Heitzig: God’s Design — Abstinence Until Marriage, Fidelity Within Marriage, Then The Enjoyment Of Marriage

Sex within the context of marriage is like drinking pure water from a clear well. But sexual sin is like drinking polluted water from a sewer. One will delight you and the other will destroy you. One is a river and the other is a swamp.

Skip Heitzig: What Does It Truly Mean To Be ‘In Christ’?

Skip Heitzig: The Need To Be Set Apart In Humility In A Self-Centered Culture

The supreme example of this lowliness of mind is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Skip Heitzig: Our Worship Should Reinforce, Not Undermine, Biblical Truth

Worship is an intelligent and obedient response to God. You read the Scriptures, you understand, and you worship accordingly. This is why Jesus said, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30). Worship is not a frenzy or an emotional outburst. Worship is a lucid, sober-minded response to truth.

A Battleground: When You Come To Salvation, You Inherit An Enemy

When I asked Jesus to come into my life in July of 1973, I experienced a deep joy and peace. I felt as though a burden had been lifted from me. But I soon learned that I had also inherited His enemy. I discovered the Christian walk includes both abundant life and abundant warfare. I had peace deep within, but at the same time, a battle. The Prince of Darkness, whom I had once followed, now hated my new Friend, so he turned his attention to me.

Living In A Culture That Silences Biblical Truth

In recent years, Christians have discovered the sting of cancel culture. Ours has become a society exactly like the one Isaiah described in his day: A generation that calls evil good and good evil, which substitutes darkness for light and light for darkness, bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. If you’re a Bible-believing follower of Christ today, you could get canceled.

Skip Heitzig: A Moving Target Or Easy Prey

People who are not making progress in their spiritual walk are much easier for Satan to pick off. You're an easy target, like the stationary ones in the shooting gallery. But if you're making strides spiritually, he'll have a hard time bringing you down.

Skip Heitzig: Crucified With Christ And Dead To The Law That Condemned Me

If someone's been found guilty of murder and given a life sentence, but dies while serving that sentence, will the justice system continue to enforce that judgment?  No; the convicted person is no longer subject to that penalty. They're dead—they've been released from the sentence they were required to serve.

Paul said, "I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ" (Galatians 1:6-7). They were going back to bondage, back to legalism. He was shocked that the gospel was being perverted so soon. And this is a warning for us: If it happened so soon back then, think of the world we live in now.
