Listen "Recreate Church, Pastor Michael Shockley—Service, April 6, 2025"
Episode Synopsis
Sacrifice and Salvation
Today, Pastor Michael is on a mission for his next series: to help folks “get it” (the Story of the Cross) and, if you have it, to help others understand it.
There are three (3) main parts of the Story of the Cross:
The Death
The Burial
The Resurrection
We’re starting with the heavy one today, the death. When Jesus died, His followers thought it was over: His Message and His Life. But so much was soon about to unfold!
Today, we’re observing the Lord’s Supper, and Pastor Michael is explaining the mechanics behind this tradition. Be a believer and ensure you’re right with God, meaning if you have things between you and the Lord that need to be dealt with, deal with them and have an open and honest heart.
The core idea for today: No Sacrifice, No Salvation.
Today’s verses are from 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4, Exodus 12: 29-30, Hebrews 9: 22, Hebrews 9: 26-28, 1 Corinthians 5: 7 and 1 Corinthians 11: 23-28.
