While I was in
I dialogued with more than a few Muslims. Taxi drivers, waiters, and barkeeps and a small number of ‘lapsed’ Mohammad-influenced believers.
The eventual question, “How do you get to Heaven (
According to Acts Chapter 10, Cornelius was a high-minded, moral man…but he was LACKING something!!!!
1. I am a good person. I hate evil and evil people and evil ways
2. I help the poor; I fight injustice and I am a defender of just causes
3. God helps those that help themselves…I help myself!
4. I’ve been a good son/daughter; I am good husband/wife
5. I keep the Ten Commandments
6. I was raised in a Christian home
7. I always pray
8. I never stolen from anyone, or killed anybody…live and let live….
9. I am an honest, tax-paying, hard worker.
10. I am a good parent and a good citizen and I’ve never smoked weed and don’t do drugs or drink
11. I was baptized as an infant and I did all my religious rites, and ceremonial, ritual obligations…
12. I go to church.
13. God knows that I am a sinner…but I know He will understands me when I see Him face to face..
14. All religions lead to God
As one reads the entire chapter, we can safely and assuredly come to the conclusion, that Morality does not have the power to forgive sins and transgressions. Only God can!
Cornelius moral character features:
A) Devout man
B) Fears God
C) Family man
D) Giver of Alms (generous, benevolent, sharing his wealth to aid, relieve and assist the poor and deprived.
E) Man of prayer
F) Just man—guided by truth, reason and justice and fairness.
G) Good reputation among the Jewish nation---integrity, character and integrity
What was Cornelius lacking?
Forgiveness of his sins…..
....according to the Bible, only Christ Jesus can forgive, forget and bury our sin(s) in the deepest part of the ocean….forgive and forget. Wow!
Are you a moral person, or are you in need of a Savior to forgive you of your evil and deviance you’ve ever committed…? Then, my dearest friend, Jesus is YOUR answer!!
These Sunday morning services are going to be a blast, and our eyes will witness the power, authority and the supremacy of the Gospel…shek eet awt.
Our four Sunday morning services are streamed live onour website: www.ccmtb.com .: 7, 9, 11, and 12:55
See you in heaven?

Pastor, I look forward to each time you visit Horizon San Diego. I was not able to attend when you came to Horizon at the end of August. I was however, able to view the archived webcast. For some reason, something told me to listen and watch tonight. I am amazed at the message I have heard through you from Jesus Christ in 1 Peter. Such a timely message for me and so well delivered - thank you. God bless you. Please pray for me.

Poncho, just wanted to let you know that i'm new at cc and I LOVE going to service on sundays . Especially on wed bible study. I enjoy hearing you speak. Alot of the times I feel as if some of the passages you read is directed to me. I want so badly to spiritually grow and pray that I can become closer to our Lord. Some of my family think I'm crazy for driving so far (I live an 1hr away) but this is where I feel at home. THANK YOU, RUBI
