There are many valuable lessons here for us today, including our propensity to be ungrateful for the many things God has blessed us with. Here we are challenged to see our own thanklessness while being encouraged by the mercy of the Lord for the weak and needy like ourselves.

Descent Into Hell
In this sermon, we are going to consider what happened to Christ's soul (or spirit) after his physical death before his ascension to the Father. Throughout the message, we will learn about Christ's dominion over sin and death, and how he is the supreme ruler over all realms, including heaven, earth, and hell. The Scriptures point to Christ as the great victor over sin and death for those who have put their trust in him as the Messiah.
