Amazing Grace Community Church

Are You a Good Church Member?

We so often measure a church by what it offers us rather than what we offer it.  “What do I get out of it?”  

If AGCC is going to have great community impact we need to have a strong body.  One that is healthy.  Every part.  We look out for each other.  We care for each other.  We help each other.  We cooperate with each other.  We listen to each other.  We defend each other.  We protect each other.  1 Corinthians 12:14-27; Ephesians 4:1-6, 15,16.

Signs of the End of the Age

This lesson on the fig tree is instructing us on how to be aware of when the Rapture is going to come.

We have the same question the apostles had.  We want to know when the end is coming or more particularly, when the Rapture is going to happen.   Let's see what Jesus had to say in Mark 13...

Do you believe in God?

Many lost and confused adults and their institutions promote their religion and false god, gaining significant numbers of followers. People are seeking but are easily deceived.  So many disbelieve because He’s invisible and seems irrelevant.

Let’s pretend you were a man that lived during 2000-2500 b.c. You were a farmer. How would you know about God?  How would you know what He wanted from you? 

Peace and Safety

While they are saying, “Peace and safety!” then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape.  We know the future as God has given it to us in the bible.  We are of the day and it won't sneak up on us. Revelation 6 and the six seals.

What Are You Hanging Onto?

How would you answer, "Tell me who you are"?   What would your answer reveal?  Are you living a law-based or performance-based life?  Find out.  Jerry Jackson shares personal testimony and on our identity in Christ.

The Two Witnesses

Is God Unfair?  Are there people who will have not heard the gospel by the time of judgment?

At the outset of the coming Tribulation, 2 witnesses appear. And for 3.5 years they preach the gospel on the worldwide stage in the midst of the 6 seals being opened, and the 7th seal and the first 6 trumpets.  Finally they are killed, resurrected, and taken into heaven.  Revelation 11.

The end-times fills in even more understanding of God’s character, power, and mercy. The end-times exposes Satan and his plan for humanity explicitly. 

Mark of the Beast

Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God…and he will be tormented with fire and brimstone,…the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night.. 

Join in as we look at the living conditions during this time. When does this happen?  Revelation 13.

When Is The Kingdom of God Coming?

Jesus brought the Kingdom.  A spiritual kingdom, not an external one.  Starts small and grows.  Doesn’t require you to observe signs or rituals nor go to a specific certain place to see it.   We won’t need a religious leader to observe signs and wonders and interpret them for us!

What will life be like before He returns?  What will the Rapture look like as it happens?  Listen in as we listen to Jesus teach us in Luke 17.

Shipwrecks of Life

Shipwrecks have a way of revealing God and His mercy.  Often, w/o the shipwrecks of life we wouldn’t see them.  We wouldn’t see miracles of God. This shipwreck story is an allegory for our lives. Acts 27

Urgency of the Message

Chaos has the effect of taking our eyes off of our destination.  Let’s refocus today.

First: A destination is pursued with a message.  That message brings clarity and focus to a chaotic environment.  What is our message?
Acts 17.
