In the sermon for Advent 1/C – preaching December 2, 2012 at […]

“Dr. Baxter Kruger’s “revisits” Wm.

Jesus Is My Life

By on Sunday, September 23rd, 2012 | No Comments

I use to preach Jesus as Savior. While I think that is true, it turns out it is not enough. That makes Christianity little more than fire insurance, and it totally discounts the life of Jesus, because it teaches that Jesus simply came to die. Next I started preaching that Jesus was Lord. That made his […]

We really don’t get it very often!  We really don’t get Jesus! We think Jesus was just some sort of event planner for our religious amusement. We think Jesus is just some guy we turn to for some sort of religious experiences. If that’s how we see Jesus, that’s just NOT ENOUGH! Jesus claimed to be much […]

Confined: Christmas Sermon 2011 At Patterson Avenue Baptist, Richmond, Virginia

By on Monday, December 26th, 2011 | 1 Comment

Here’s the good news for this Christmas day: “Jesus Christ, the human Son of God, is born into this world captive to all the things that bind and restrict us. Then, in our place and on our behalf, he escapes one confinement after another. In the process he opens us up into an ever-increasing and irreversible freedom. Because of what he has accomplished – in life, death, and resurrection – we have been set free.
