Mundubbera Baptist Church Sermons

Enemies of the Cross and Citizens of Heaven - Phil 3:15-21 - Derek - 27/2/25

Christian maturity is living with Christ at the centre of life with his cross being crucial for salvation and all of life.  Some claim to follow God and yet oppose the message of the cross and thus live earthly lives rather than as citizens of heaven.

To Know Christ - Phil 3:8-14 - Derek - 19/1/24

The greatest and most important thing in life is to know Christ.  Paul tells us elements of this great endeavor. 

Philippians 3:1-9 - Derek - 12/1/24

Paul had been exceptional in his attempt for self-made goodness, and yet he says that all of this is rubbish.  Our personal qualifications and righteousness achieve nothing for us compared to what Jesus has done in our place.

Humility and Exaltation of Christ - Phil 2:5-18 - Ned Jones - 5/1/25

Paul begins with a command: "Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus."
This is not just a general call to be humble. It's an invitation to adopt the very attitude of Jesus. But what exactly does the "mind of Christ" look like?
 

The Servant Saviour - Phil 2:1-11 - Derek - 29/12/24

Jesus, although He was the Son of God, lowered Himself to become a servant to humanity dying on the cross for them.

Jesus the King, Priest and Sacrifice is born

The three wise men brought gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.  These showed what sort of Saviour Jesus would really be.

Jesus Immanuel - Matt 1:18-25 - Derek - 22/12/24

The angel Gabriel told Joseph two wonderful things about who Jesus would be, a) the One who would save the people from their sins, and b) He would be called Immanuel, God with us.

Genealogy of Jesus - Matt 1:1-17 - Derek - 15/12/24

The genealogy of Jesus tells us great truths about Jesus and actually brings us freedom and healing as the Christmas message breaks in on the world.
