A Matter of Life and Death

Making a decision regarding the identity of Jesus is the biggest decision of your life. It truly is a matter of life and death for life and death are in His hands. We are all in need of a hero, and not just any hero, but one who can do battle with foes which none of us are capable of defeating – sin, death, and the devil. A decision is before you. A choice must be made. Will you repent of your sin and trust in Jesus Christ – the only name under heaven by which men can be saved – or will you reject Him and face death alone. You need a hero, will you call out to Him for help?

In a sermon entitled A Matter of Life and Death I'd like to walk through our text with three markers which will describe the length to which Jesus has gone to rescue us!

(1) The Miracle: The Dead Resurrected by Life v38-44
(2) The Response: The Life Sentenced to Death v45-50
(3) The Irony: The Death of Death in the Death of Christ v51-54
