The Dragon Rages, but the Lamb Has Conquered | Revelation 12
2w ago00:47:47Tap to summarizeIn Revelation 12, John sees a great sign in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, a male child who will rule the nations, and a great red dragon who seeks to devour the child.This chapter pulls back the curtain and shows us the war behind all wars. The dragon rages, but he is not raging because he is winning. He rages because he is defeated.In this sermon from Calvary Cork, Mike Neglia teaches through Revelation 12 and shows how the dragon cannot stop the Messiah’s rule, cannot condemn those cleansed by the Lamb’s blood, and cannot outlast God’s purposes.This message considers:The woman, the child, and the dragon in Revelation 12 Why the woman is best understood as Israel, the covenant people through whom the Messiah came The conflict between the serpent and the seed of the woman from Genesis 3:15 Satan as the accuser of God’s people The difference between conviction and condemnation How believers overcome by the blood of the Lamb What it means to hold fast to the testimony of Jesus What Revelation 12 reveals to us about Jesus ChristThe accuser may point to real guilt, but the gospel points us to better blood. Christians do not overcome accusation by defending their own righteousness, but by resting in the righteousness of Christ.“They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony…” — Revelation 12:11The dragon rages, but the Lamb has conquered.Preached at Calvary Cork, a Christian church in Cork City, Ireland.Passage: Revelation 12Series: RevelationSpeaker: Mike NegliaChurch: Calvary Cork

From Saul and Ananias to Barnabas, Peter and Tabitha, every part of the chapter points beyond the human characters to Christ, who is still building His Church.Passage: Acts 9Speaker: Noah BeumerChurch: Calvary Cork

Baptism & Communion : Frequently Asked Questions
3w ago00:33:02Tap to summarizeFollowing our recent sermons on baptism and the Lord's Supper, Pastor Mike Neglia sits down with Calvary Cork elder Stephen Lane to answer some of the most common questions raised by the church.Why did Mike use the word sacrament instead of ordinance? Is baptism just a symbol, or does it accomplish something? Does baptism save? What does the Lord's Supper actually mean? Should Christians take communion at home, in small groups, or only with the gathered church? And what should someone do if they feel too guilty to come to the Lord's Table?Together they discuss the biblical teaching on Christian baptism, communion, the Lord's Supper, Holy Communion, the Eucharist, the gathered church, salvation by grace, union with Christ, repentance, remembrance, and the finished work of Jesus Christ.Whether you're new to Christianity, preparing for baptism, or simply wanting a deeper understanding of these two ordinances Christ gave to His church, we hope this conversation helps you see the gospel made visible.Scripture references you should look up: Matthew 28, Acts 2, Romans 6, Luke 22, 1 Corinthians 10-11, and Revelation 19.Speakers: Elders Mike Neglia and Stephen LaneChurch: Calvary Cork, Ireland

The Gospel Made Visible : A Sermon About Communion
4w ago00:44:16Tap to summarizeAt the Lord’s Table, the gospel is not only preached in words; it is placed in our hands.In this Communion Sunday message, Pastor Mike looks at how the bread and the cup visibly proclaim the finished work of Jesus Christ. Communion points us back to the cross, where Christ’s body was given and His blood was poured out, but it also gathers us as God’s family, calls us to repentant love, and points us forward to the coming kingdom.As we come to the table, we are invited to look back to the cross, look forward to Christ’s return, look inward with honesty, and look around with love.Scriptures referenced include: Luke 22, 1 Corinthians 10-11, Exodus 12, and Revelation 19.

The Gospel Made Visible: A Sermon About Baptism
4w ago00:43:48Tap to summarizeBaptism is one of the clearest ways Jesus has given His church to show the gospel. In this Baptism Sunday message from Romans 6:1-5, Mike Neglia explains how baptism points us to Jesus Christ: His death, His burial, His resurrection, His cleansing grace, and the new life He gives to all who trust in Him.Baptism does not save us, but it visibly proclaims the salvation Jesus has already accomplished. It shows that believers are united with Christ, raised to walk in newness of life, and publicly declaring, “I belong to Jesus.”This sermon explores the meaning of Christian baptism, union with Christ, forgiveness of sins, believer’s baptism, and joyful allegiance to Jesus.Scripture: Romans 6:1-5Speaker: Mike NegliaChurch: Calvary Cork

Don't Judge By The Middle - Revelation 11
Jul 900:46:28Tap to summarizeIn Revelation 11, John sees a measured temple, two prophetic witnesses, the beast rising from the abyss, the world celebrating apparent victory over God’s servants, and the seventh trumpet announcing the coming kingdom of Christ.This sermon from Calvary Cork reminds us not to judge by the middle of the story. The nations may trample, the world may resist God’s testimony, and the beast may appear to win — but God claims His people, empowers His witnesses, vindicates His servants, and brings the kingdom of Christ even while the nations rage.Revelation 11 speaks to a world filled with uncertainty, conflict, evil, suffering, political turmoil, and spiritual confusion. It also speaks to ordinary people in Cork who are asking where God is when life feels chaotic, when evil seems to gain momentum, and when faithfulness feels costly.Every time Christians pray, “Your kingdom come,” we are praying toward the day announced in Revelation 11:15:“The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.”This message considers:The measuring of the temple in Revelation 11The two witnesses and their testimonyWhy Moses and Elijah may be in viewThe beast, opposition, and apparent defeatThe resurrection and vindication of God’s servantsThe seventh trumpet and the coming kingdomWhat Revelation 11 shows us about Jesus ChristJesus is the true faithful witness, the crucified and risen Lord, and the King who shall reign forever and ever.Preached at Calvary Cork, a Christian church in Cork City, Ireland.Passage: Revelation 11Series: RevelationSpeaker: Mike NegliaChurch: Calvary CorkSearch-friendly tags / keywordsRevelation 11 sermon, Revelation 11 explained, two witnesses Revelation 11, who are the two witnesses, beast Revelation 11, seventh trumpet Revelation, kingdom of Christ, Bible teaching Cork, Christian church Cork, Cork Bible study, Calvary Cork, Revelation sermon series, end times Bible teaching, Book of Revelation explained, Jesus reigns forever, Cork church sermon, Christianity in Cork, Bible teaching Ireland, Revelation prophecy, Moses and Elijah Revelation, do not judge by the middle of the story.

No More Delay | Revelation 10
Jun 2900:45:54Tap to summarizeIn Revelation 10, John sees a mighty angel descend from heaven, hears seven thunders he is forbidden to write down, and receives a little scroll that is sweet in his mouth but bitter in his stomach.In this sermon, Mike Neglia teaches that God has not told us everything, but He has told us enough. Judgment will not be delayed forever, so God’s servants must take in His word and speak it faithfully, whether it comforts or confronts.This message considers the mystery of what God has concealed, the certainty of what God has revealed, the mercy behind the delay of judgment, and the call to receive and proclaim the whole word of God.Passage: Revelation 10Preached at Calvary Cork

The Trumpets Sound: Warning, Judgment, and Repentance | Revelation 8-9
Jun 2200:47:57Tap to summarizeWhat do the trumpet judgments in Revelation mean, and why do they matter for Christians today?In Revelation 8-9, the seventh seal is opened, heaven falls silent, and the prayers of the saints rise before God like incense. Then the seven trumpets begin to sound, bringing severe but measured judgments upon the earth. Creation is struck, the abyss is opened, demonic torment is unleashed, and a third of humanity is killed. Yet even after these terrifying warnings, Revelation tells us that the survivors “did not repent.”In this sermon from Calvary Cork, Mike Neglia teaches through Revelation 8:1-9:21 and explores the meaning of the trumpet judgments, the silence in heaven, the prayers of the saints, the echoes of the Exodus plagues, the opening of the abyss, and the stubbornness of the human heart. These chapters are not given to satisfy end-times curiosity or fuel speculation, but to sound an alarm: God is warning the world before final judgment comes.This message also considers how future judgment frees Christians from personal revenge. If God will judge every wrong, then believers can entrust justice to Him and forgive without pretending evil is small. The Lamb who opens the seventh seal is the Lamb who was slain, and the Judge who warns the world has provided refuge in Himself for all who repent and believe.A sermon on Revelation 8-9, the seven trumpets, the trumpet judgments, the Great Tribulation, prayer, judgment, repentance, and the mercy of Jesus Christ.
