Understanding the Sabbath, Part 2

Hebrews 4:9-10 For centuries, the Sabbath has sparked debate among Christians — is it still binding, and if so, how? In this message, Pastor Rod Bunton traces the Sabbath from its origins through the New Testament to show that Christ is the fulfillment of the Sabbath rest, that the ceremonial law has been completed in him, and that believers enter true rest not by rule-keeping but by faith.

Understanding the Sabbath, Part 1

Hebrews 4:9 Few topics in the Christian life generate more confusion than the Sabbath — whether it still applies, which day to observe, and what the rules actually are. In this message, Pastor Rod Bunton traces the Sabbath from creation through the Mosaic covenant to show that it was a covenant sign given to Israel, not a universal moral law, and that Jesus himself came as the Lord of the Sabbath to usher in something far greater.

Failure to Embrace the Gospel

Hebrews 4:1–10 Many people attend church, know the gospel, and consider themselves Christians — yet have never truly surrendered to Christ, leaving them in a place of spiritual danger they may not even recognize. In this message, Pastor Rod Bunton examines why people stop short of genuine faith, unpacking how pride, worldly pleasure, self-deception, and false teaching keep people from entering the rest that only Christ can give.

The Perseverance of the Saints

Hebrews 4:1–11 Every person is searching for a satisfaction and rest that the world cannot provide — yet many who attend church week after week may never truly find it. In this message, Pastor Rod Bunton explores what it means to genuinely enter God’s rest, why the perseverance of the saints is the bedrock of true salvation, and how to honestly examine whether your faith is the kind God gives or the kind that fades.

Persevering in the Heavenly Calling

Hebrews 3:7–19 Many people assume they belong to God based on a past decision, a baptism, or years of church attendance — but the Bible draws a much sharper line. In this message, Pastor Rod Bunton shows that true saving faith is marked by perseverance, that a hardening heart is a serious warning sign, and that today is the day to examine whether you are truly in God’s household.

Jesus is Superior to Moses

Hebrews 3:1-6 Senior Pastor Rod Bunton teaches from a passage that compares Christ to one of the greatest prophets from Jewish history.

Help for Temptation

Hebrews 2:17-18 Did the “devil make you do it”? Does God tempt you to sin? When Jesus became a man, he experienced temptations just like we do and he is able to help us when we are tempted.

Faith From the Cross

The Architect of Our Salvation, Part 2

Hebrews 2:10-18 Senior Pastor Rod Bunton looks at the theology behind Good Friday – the humanity of Christ. The epistle to the Hebrews answers the question that is a stumbling block to many: “How can Jesus be the Messiah and yet suffer and die?”

The Architect of Our Salvation, Part 1

Hebrews 2:9-18 Senior Pastor Rod Bunton expands on the reason why Christ became a man, showing that it was necessary to provide a path to the salvation of men through His substitutionary death on the cross.

Why Did the Son of God Become a Man?
