The Son Who Separates

Welcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. We are glad that you are with us today! As we come to the end of Matthew 25, we also come to the end of the Olivet Discourse. Jesus has spent a significant amount of time helping his disciples understand the events that surround his coming in power and glory. He has called them to be ready, because they do…

Working While Waiting

Good morning and welcome to Chapel City Church. We are glad that you have joined us for our time of corporate worship today. In our study of the Olivet Discourse, Jesus is concluding with parables that there will be a delay before his returns, but that return is coming at a day and hour that nobody knows.  He implores his disciples to be prepared.  In the…

A Picture of Preparation

Good morning and welcome to Chapel City Church. We are glad that you have joined us for our time of corporate worship today. As we continue through the Olivet Discourse, we have seen Jesus use parables to illustrate the unknown timing of his return. Although the signs will be present, the Son will come in power and glory at a day and hour known only to the Father.…

Expecting the Unexpected

As we come to the concluding verses of Matthew 24, Jesus has begun to address the timing of his return. Although he does not give details about the day or the hour, he does indicate that people will be caught off guard. The instruction given to his disciples, and to disciples of every age, is to wait for his coming with eager anticipation. But how do we live in readiness…

The Promise of Persecution

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are glad that you have come to worship with us today. We have been working through the gospel of Matthew, and this week we will jump back into Matthew 24. Jesus has cleansed the temple and silenced the religious leaders. He has mourned over Jerusalem for her failure to recognize the promised messiah. And at the beginning of Chapter 24 he…

The Recission of the Kingdom

Welcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. We are so glad you have joined us today. We have reached the pivot point of the Gospel of Matthew. The Kingdom has been pronounced (Chapters 1-10). Matthew has moved us to official rejection of the Messiah and the announcement of postponement of the Kingdom. From here forward, Jesus turns attention to what lies…

Condemning Counterfeit Worship

Welcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. As you join with us today, we would invite you to consider what worship looks like. What does it mean to worship? Is it a specific action or attitude? How do we know when we have really worshipped and not just done something that looks like worship? As we move through Matthew 23, we are going to come across the…
