Madison Reformed Church"Denying the Trinity" Belgic Confession, art. 9 (part 2!)Num. 16:25–32 Ezek. 13:1–11 Mark 12:18–27 1 Tim. 6:20–21 Scripture paints a challenging picture for our age. It shows that while the Church is a community of people who welcome others into it, it also has boundary lines. One of the boundary lines is the doctrine of the Trinity. In this message, we learn what Scripture says about those who teach false doctrine and highlight a few of the prominent groups and people in Church history who have taught a false doctrine of the Trinity in particular.

God is God, and He has revealed Himself. In this message, we focus especially on the the distinctness of each Person of the Blessed Trinity.

Madison Trinity ChurchWhen Grace AboundsGrace covers a multitude of sins. There is not one sin too great for God's grace to cover it. His grace is sufficient enough to pay the debts of every sin ever committed in the past by the entire world, every present sin and every future sin of every man. Because of God's grace is greater than sin, there is hope for every individual ever born to know Him. God's grace abounds far beyond our greatest sins! Since this is true, should we be cavalier in our sins and ignore righteous behavior?

Madison Trinity ChurchLove Letters From GodGod’s creation opens our eyes to the fact that we have a Creator.

It is too complex to see it any other way. It was not an accident.

Madison Trinity ChurchGod's Gracious LoveThere are different types of love which we will briefly discuss today. However, I would like to focus on the love that is far deeper and meaningful than the fleeting love we so often see in the world today. The love we routinely see in the world is one that involves no commitment and easily gives up. As soon as things get difficult, this love quickly dies and moves on to the next person or situation that gives us the FEELING of love.
