North Platte Berean Church
Final Words
Christianity has a long history of being misunderstood, even by Christians! It's all too easy to make it about Jesus PLUS something (good works, moral living, religious activities, emotional experience…). But the book of Hebrews claims that when we add anything to Jesus, we're actually subtracting. It holds up Jesus Christ – fully God, fully human – as the promised Deliverer. He is the One who, alone, saves us from our sinfulness and restores our relationships with God, others, and creation. Its message, the message of Christianity, is really quite simple: Jesus Christ is enough!

Next Week's Sermon
As evangelical Christians in western Nebraska in 2023, it's easy to get tunnel vision and forget that we’re part of a MUCH bigger story. A story that has included many Christians in many parts of the world over the course of centuries. The Apostles’ Creed is a helpful reminder of the common confession we all share – the essentials of knowing and following Jesus. Like the moon, it has no light of its own, but it reflects the light of the Scriptures it’s based on. Join in as we let the Apostles’ Creed point us back to God’s Word, giving us a well-rounded understanding of the faith and a deeply-rooted sense of our place in the community of believers throughout history.
