Tearing Down The Walls - Eph. 2:11-18
Pastor Rudie preached from Ephesians 2 on how Jesus Christ, through His death and shed blood, tore down the “middle wall of partition,” reconciling not only Jew and Gentile, but also sinners with God. He explained that sin creates both death and distance, but Christ’s sacrifice brings resurrection and reconciliation, making peace and granting us access to the Father. Once hopeless, godless, and far off, believers are now brought near—no longer alienated but welcomed into God’s family by grace.#FaithDanville #TearDownTheWall #ReconciledByGrace #PeaceThroughTheCross #FromFarToNear #AccessToGod #Ephesians2 #ChristOurPeace #SavedByHisBlood

What Forgiveness Truly Means - Matt. 18:21-35
Pastor Rudie’s sermon emphasizes that believers have been forgiven a great debt of sin, and because of this, they are commanded to forgive others. He outlines four key motivations for forgiveness: grace (God has forgiven us), guilt (an unforgiving spirit is itself a sin), grief (unforgiveness leads to bitterness and bondage), and gain (true forgiveness restores relationships). True forgiveness must be freely given, fully embraced, and finally settled, mirroring God's own forgiveness toward us.#BiblicalForgiveness #GraceAndMercy #ForgiveAsChristForgave #FreedomInForgiveness #Matthew18
