Daniel Price at Here We Still Stand

Daniel Price was up first on Friday morning at Here We Still Stand.  Here are some quotes:

Jesus is the best communicator ever. He created it.

Jesus--You will know my disciples by their love.

500 years after the Reformation, it seems like we have lost the gospel.  It needs to be continually proclaimed.


I believe the denial of faith without works comes from not understanding double imputation.

Because of double imputation, you don't have to do anything, but you get to do everything for your neighbor.

2 Corinthians 5:16-21

We are new creations to God through Christ. We are alive.  It's all of God's doing.

Jesus gives us the message of reconciliation.  This includes forgiveness of sin (taking our all our sins) AND giving us His righteousness.

Double imputation is a hill worth dying on. Christ died on it.

2 Corinthians 5:21 is what Martin Luther called the Wonderful Exchange.

Whenever I hear the law, I get excited because the gospel is coming.  But many times in church all we hear is all law. 

Jesus doesn't just give us a clean slate.  He gives us His righteousness too.

Jesus commits NO sin, but He assumes ALL our sin.

This is the message the church must proclaim.  Salvation is free. Reformation is not. The gospel needs to go out into the world and this can be costly. 

Capon-We talk so loudly about "shoulds" and shouldn'ts" that they eclipse forgiveness of sins.

Paul-Same message-Christ and Him crucified. I know this is true.  But I wake up fighting the lie that God doesn't like me very much and He is disappointed with me. 

We can look at people not because of what they have done, but instead what Christ has done for them.

Sermon Notes-"Transitional Thoughts"

Introduction: As I was thinking and praying about what to share during my final sermon on staff, I began to think of the transition that I am making as well as the church.   We as pastors have been consistently focused on three priorities over the last several years: prayer, worship and equip.   So, even though I may no longer be on staff in a few weeks at this church, as a member of this church I believe just as strongly that Hesston MB needs to continue to be about these priorities in the days ahead.   However, the more I prayed about it, the more I realized that to get to these priorities, we as a church also had to make some transitions so that is why I am entitling this message “Transitional Thoughts”.   Transition is defined as “the process or an instance of changing from one form, state, activity, or place to another.” Educate to Equip- Ephesians 4:11-16 ·          What is the difference?   o    To educate the focus is information; to equip the focus is transformation o

Sermon Notes "Plans" based on Acts 10:24-48

Introduction: I would like you to think about the word “plans”. Write down on your bulletin some plans you have for: this week, summer, your future, etc.   I am a planner so I love to know what is going to happen.   Yet we also need to keep in mind a Scripture from Proverbs 19:21 “Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.” We are going to see from the story of Peter and Cornelius, two great leaders who had plans yet God had a different plan and purpose for them and for others. Prepared- vs. 24-29 ·          Vs. 23-24-Peter and Cornelius have visions (10:1-23) o    Peter is told not to call common what God has made clean (15). As Peter is trying to figure out what it means, some men come and find him. o    Cornelius is told to call for a man named Peter and is given his location and he sends his servants to find him. o    Peter makes preparations and goes to Caesarea, Cornelius gets ready for his guests and invites his close fr
