The Risen and Reigning Christ: Ephesians 1:20-21

Heart of Flesh ·

2025/05/06

Throughout the Old Testament we find many promises of a great Messianic King who would bring about a great and everlasting kingdom. For example, in the book of Genesis we see in God’s promises to Abraham that there would be a king that comes from him. In Genesis 49:10 we see that this king would come from the tribe of Judah and that the scepter would never depart from him…Elsewhere, in Isaiah Ch. 9, we read of a coming "Prince of Peace," and Isaiah says that "the government (the kingdom) shall be

Bewildering Blessings & Confounding Curses: Luke 6:20-26

2025/04/25

When Jesus looks at the world he sees only two types of people. There are people who are blessed by God (see verses 20-23) and there are people who are cursed by God (see verses 24-26). Those who embrace Jesus by repentance and faith are the blessed recipients of God's favor, while those who do not are the cursed recipients of his righteous judgment. In this sermon by Jesus in Luke 6:20-26, he teaches us what these two different types of people look like and he points us to what their final outcome

Resurrection Now & Later: Ephesians 1:19-20

2025/04/18

With Easter Sunday quickly approaching it is an appropriate time to discuss the all-important doctrine of resurrection. In this episode, which is originally a message given during River City Church's Thursday morning Bible Study by Jackson Hankey, he explores the remarkable teaching of the Apostle Paul that believers have become partakers of the same resurrection power that was at work in the resurrection of Christ. Because of our union with Him, we share in the same resurrection reality. As Paul

This episode is a sermon on Ephesians 1:13-14 given by Jackson Hankey at River City Church on March 20th, 2025. The text that this sermon covers is listed below with the main phrases I focus on in BOLD:"In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory" - Ephesians 1:13-14 ESVIn this sermon I discuss the

Ephesians 1:13 - The Necessity of the Spirit

2025/03/25

In the church today there is much debate and confusion about the Holy Spirit, and while this short message on Ephesians 1:13 isn't intended to answer all of the questions we may have, it does make one very important point about the Spirit clear. That is that a person cannot be a Christian without the Holy Spirit. We see here in these verses that the sealing of the Holy Spirit is a spiritual blessing from God the Father to all those who are "In him," that is, in Christ. So whoever is "in him" is

This verse unfolds for us the doctrine of Unconditional Election and the sermon draws out 8 things that we learn from this passage about this doctrine. Listed below is the definition I give of Unconditional Election and the 8 things I highlighted about it from Ephesians 1:4Def: "Unconditional Election is the Bible's teaching that God has unchangeably and infallibly chosen before

This episode is a sermon on Ephesians 1:1-2 which was given by James Kaczor at River City Church on Thursday, Jan. 16th, 2025. This is Paul's introduction to the letter, and as James' mentions it is like an embryo which contains many of the things we see throughout the rest of the book. Now, these are verses that, if we're honest, we are often prone to quickly skimming without really thinking about them, but to do so is to miss some of the great treasures that are to be found. The truth is that God

Ephesians: An Introduction & Overview

2025/01/13

This episode is an introduction to the book of Ephesians which was taught by Jackson Hankey at River City Church on Thursday, Jan. 9th, 2025. As stated in the episode, the book of Ephesians is one of the most important documents in the history of the world. That is largely due to the fact that even though this letter is relatively short, it is one of the clearest and most comprehensive statements of so much of the substance of the Christian beliefs that we hold so dear. Many of God's sheep in all

This episode is a sermon on Isaiah 53:10-12 that was preached by Jackson Hankey at River City Church on 12/29/2024. Isaiah 53 is one of the most beloved passages by Christians of all ages because of how clearly it speaks of the work of Jesus even though it was written hundreds of years before he came into the world. Verses 10-12 finish this great passage in the same way that the Bible itself finishes and the same way that all of human history will finish. That is, with a resurrected, highly-exalted,

This episode is a sermon on Isaiah 53:4-6 that was preached by Jackson Hankey at River City Church in Fargo, ND, on 12/15/2024. Isaiah 53 is one of the most beloved passages in the Bible by Christians of all ages and verses 4-6 are at the very heart of the passage. Perhaps nowhere else in the Bible is there such a clear explanation of the significance of the death of Christ as in Isaiah 53:4-6, and that is despite the fact that it was written 700 years before Christ came into the world!Here's a

This episode is a sermon on Isaiah 52:13-15 that was preached by Jackson Hankey at River City Church in Fargo, ND, on 12/1/2024. Isaiah 52:13-53:12 is one the most beloved passages of Scripture by Christians in all ages. This is because it is one of the clearest and most thorough passages that we find about the person and work of Jesus Christ in the entire Bible (despite the fact that it was written by the Prophet Isaiah about 700 years before Christ came into the world).

Lord, Teach Us to Pray: A Sermon on the Lord's Prayer

2024/11/15

This episode is a sermon on the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13) that was preached by Jackson Hankey on November 10th, 2024, at Bethel Baptist Church in Park River, ND. The Lord's Prayer is perhaps the most well known and most repeated passage in the entire Bible. Yet, it seems that very few of us have really understood it and taken it to heart. Many of us, in spite of it's familiarity, have been entirely unaffected by it's meaning, especially in our own prayer lives. Yet, the Lord's Prayer in reality

In this episode, I (Jackson Hankey) address the debate surrounding the topic of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. As we have moved to the Holy Spirit in our discussion of the Doctrine of God, it seems fitting to address some of the current controversies surrounding the work of the Holy Spirit, especially those that have arisen out of the Pentecostal/Charismatic movement. With this in mind, we've decided the first thing to address should be the Biblical concept of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Below

In this episode, James Kaczor and I continue our series on the Doctrine of God and now progress to a discussion of the Holy Spirit. This episode has a feeling of unique relevance given the degree of confusion that fills the church today in regard to the person and work of the Holy Spirit. For many, there is a strong tendency to overemphasize or overrealize the person and work of the Holy Spirit in unbiblical ways. However, perhaps just as common, is a tendency to underemphasize and underrealize the

Throughout history there have been many people and groups who have sought to challenge and subvert the Orthodox beliefs of the church about the Deity of Christ. Oftentimes, these people will point to specific verses in the Bible that they believe prove that Jesus is not truly God. In this episode, I examine a number of those arguments and seek to show how a proper understanding of the Hypostatic Union can answer all of the objections.

This episode is a sermon on Psalm 61 that was preached by Joshua Molden at River City Church on 8/11/2024. In this sermon, Joshua emphasizes the neediness of God's people, the power and strength of God as their refuge, provider, and protector, and the ultimate way in which in Psalm 61 is fulfilled in the person and work of Jesus Christ. This Psalm gives us a picture of what it looks like to be a needy and sinful creature that lives with faith in a powerful and gracious Redeemer. "Hear my cry, O

This episode is a sermon on Psalm 58 that was preached by Jackson Hankey at River City Church on July 21st, 2024. Psalm 58 is what is known as an imprecatory Psalm. It is a Psalm of David in which he describes and prays against the wickedness of his own day, and in which he also looks forward to the final day when God will bring perfect justice. In this Psalm, David is both looking backward to Genesis 3 (where we find the first promise of Christ in the bible) and he is looking forward to the day
