Ilagan Christian Church

Ptr. Jess Erasquin

  • The Chosen Nation

    Tracing God’s choice of Israel at Sinai through to the church, God’s chosen and holy nation in Christ.

  • Enduring God’s Holy Discipline

    Psalm 3, written as David fled from Absalom, shows a king under God’s discipline for his sin, who still finds that salvation belongs to the Lord.

  • The True Israel

    Not all who descend from Abraham are true Israel; God’s true Israel are the children of promise, united to Christ by faith, both Jew and Gentile.

  • A Psalm of Repentance

    Psalm 51, David’s prayer after his sin with Bathsheba, teaches true repentance: a broken and contrite heart that God will not despise.

  • The Parable of the Wicked Tenants

    Jesus’ parable of the wicked tenants exposes Israel’s rejection of God’s prophets and His Son, and reveals Christ as the rejected stone now made the cornerstone.

  • Bless the Lord, O My Soul

    Psalm 103 asks how we can bless the God who is the source of all blessing, and answers: by not forgetting His benefits and by declaring His mighty deeds.

  • The Lord Is My Portion

    When Canaan was divided, the Levites received no land, because the Lord Himself was their inheritance. To say “the Lord is my portion” is to call Him our greatest treasure.

  • The One True Religion

    Comparing the claims of the world’s religions, this two-part message asks what makes Christianity different, then presses into Jesus’ own claim to be the way, the truth, and the life.

  • Illusion

    Optical illusions show how easily our senses are fooled. Fallen man is fooled in a deeper way, cut off from reality until he is brought back to God through Christ.

  • The Resurrection Body

    If Christ is not raised, our faith is worthless. Because He is raised, the dead will rise in glorified bodies fit for God’s new creation.

  • The Last Adam

    Through one man, Adam, sin and death came to all. Through the Last Adam, Jesus Christ, grace reigns through righteousness to eternal life.

  • Human Dignity

    If man is a cosmic accident, he has no real dignity. Because he is made in God’s image and called to rule under Him, his life has true worth.
