                    <title>The Crown of Thorns</title>
                    <description>This Easter Sunday message, “The Crown of Thorns,” continues the journey that began on Good Friday with “Take Up Thy Cross.” While Friday reminds us of the suffering of Christ, Easter declares the victory that followed. The crown of thorns placed upon Jesus in mockery became a symbol of the King who conquered sin, death, and the grave.

Reflecting on the crucifixion and the resurrection, this sermon explores how the suffering Savior is also the risen King. What the world meant for shame, God turned into glory. Through the crown of thorns, we see both the depth of Christ’s sacrifice and the triumph of His resurrection.

Because of the resurrection, the story does not end at the cross. The One who wore the crown of thorns now reigns in victory, offering new life and hope to all who believe.</description>

                    <title>Take Up Thy Cross</title>
                    <description>This Good Friday message, “Take Up Thy Cross,” reflects on the call of Jesus for every believer to follow Him in surrender, sacrifice, and faithful obedience. As we remember the suffering and sacrifice of Christ on Calvary, this sermon challenges us to examine our own commitment to discipleship and to embrace the cross that Christ has called us to bear.

Through Scripture and reflection on the events of Good Friday, this message reminds us that the cross is not only a symbol of Christ’s sacrifice, but also the path of true discipleship. When we deny ourselves and follow Him, we discover the power of redemption, the depth of God’s love, and the hope that leads us from the cross to the resurrection.

Join us as we remember the price that was paid for our salvation and renew our commitment to take up our cross and follow Christ.</description>

                    <title>The Goodness of God</title>
                    <description>Psalm 107 is a song of thanksgiving for the goodness of God. Verses 1, 19, 21, and 22 read, “O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: . . . Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses. . . . Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving.” One very interesting thing about this Psalm is that verses 19 and 22 are each repeated four times. Thus, stressing the salvation of God in times of trouble and distresses (vv. 6, 13, 19, 28) and the importance of praising the Lord for his goodness (verses 8, 15, 21, 31).</description>

                    <title>Thanksgiving Greetings - 2023</title>
                    <description>In at least six of Paul&apos;s letters, he expressed thanks for The Church of God and Its members. In his letter to the Romans, he thanked God for their faith (1:8) and Priscilla and Aquila, who had risked their lives to save him (16:3, 4). He gave thanks in prayer for the faith and love of the Ephesians (1:15-16), the Colossians (1:3, 4), the Thessalonicans (2 Thess. 1:3, 4, 13), and Philemon (1:4-5). Paul continually thanked God for the Philippians and their steadfast fellowship in the Gospel (1:3-5).

Even so, we, the General Headquarters staff, thank God for you, The Church of God. We are thankful for truth, holiness, the Advice to Members, our mutual nourishment, our kindred relationships, and your shepherding care.</description>

In his letter to the Romans, he thanked God for their faith (1:8) and Priscilla and Aquila, who had risked their lives to save him (16:3, 4). He gave thanks in prayer for the faith and love of the Ephesians (1:15-16), the Colossians (1:3, 4), the Thessalonicans (2 Thess. 1:3, 4, 13), and Philemon (1:4-5). Paul continually thanked God for the Philippians and their steadfast fellowship in the Gospel (1:3-5).

Even so, we, the General Headquarters staff, thank God for you, The Church of God. We are thankful for truth, holiness, the Advice to Members, our mutual nourishment, our kindred relationships, and your shepherding care.</itunes:summary>

                    <description>A last will and testament is a legal document detailing how a person&apos;s assets and properties will be distributed after death. The will must identify the &quot;testator&quot; and the beneficiaries, their qualifications, and a description of what is being bequested to each of them.

The shedding of Christ&apos;s blood did three things: it paid God for the sinner&apos;s debt, purged the guilt from the sinner&apos;s conscience, and enabled the redeemed heirs to possess their inheritance.</description>

                    <title>The Christ of Christmas</title>
                    <description>In the New Testament, Jesus is referred to as “Jesus Christ” one hundred and thirty-four times and “Christ Jesus” eighty-six times. Some may think that “Christ” is Jesus’ surname or last name, but it is His title. In John 1:41, we find Andrew talking to “his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.” Both the Hebrew word “Messiah” in the Old Testament and the Greek word “Christ” in the New Testament means “The Anointed One.”</description>

                    <description>The love of Jesus Christ is boundless, unmeasurable, and transcends all human understanding. The beautiful hymn &quot;The Love of God&quot; reminds us that Christ&apos;s love is &quot;greater far than tongue or pen can ever tell.&quot; Just as the hymn paints a picture of God&apos;s love, we reflect on the unimaginable vastness of His love and how it reaches into every corner of our lives.</description>
