- Religion & Spirituality
Wecom the weekly audio postcast for Eagle Christian Church in Eagle, Idaho. Our mission is to reach people with the gospel message of Jesus Christ, teach people to become devoted disciples of His, equip people for acts of service, and send them into ministry. As a Christian church we do not claim to be the only Christians, or the only church, but we will seek simply to be known as Christians without a denominational label. We do not see ourselves as better than anyone else, but as a group of Christian people dedicated to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Gifts of Love

How To Stand Perfect Before A Holy God

You Can't Do It
Dr. Crane shares from Romans 4 how Jesus has paid for our debts and offers the gift of righteousness to us.

The Cost of Salvation
Dr. Crane calls this passage one of the most remarkable in all of Scripture. We learn that salvation does not come by our works, but is provided to us by the cross of Jesus Christ, who paid our debt by his atoning sacrifice, purchased our freedom, and freely gave us the gift of righteousness.

“But Now …”
Dr. Crane shares how God has made it possible for anyone who believes in Jesus Christ to be justified before God, because Jesus has redeemed them from their sin, and given himself as a sacrifice which atones for their sins.
-
Guilty
Dr. Crane shares Paul's case that all people are guilty and under the control of sin. We cannot save ourselves, but what we cannot do on our own God has provided for us through Jesus.
