    Inadequate Assessments

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 24, 2003
    based on 5 ratings
     | 2,113 views

    There are many opinions about Jesus that, while good in themselves, are inadequate.

    As Jesus and the Disciples are in the area of Caesarea Philippi, He asks them a question. At first, it seems to be just a simple, straightforward question but we can be assured that Jesus has a profound purpose in asking it. 1. He did not ask it to gain information because He already knew the ...read more

    The Hurt Of The Holiday

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 24, 2003
    based on 14 ratings
     | 4,293 views

    Although Mother’s Day can and should be a joyful celebration, it can for many be a time of great pain.

    When we think of holidays like Mother’s Day, we generally think of happy, festive occasions. A day like this produces warm, joyful, and sentimental feelings. But for others there is another aspect to these occasions for some that we don’t often think of: Pain. For many these days can bring ...read more

    You Can Go Home Again

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 24, 2003
    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,410 views

    The saying "You can’t go home again" is not true when speaking spiritually.

    There is a saying: “You can’t go back home again.” But in this parable Jesus tells us of a young man who did indeed go home. After a long and grueling absence from his father he finally made his way homeward. You too can come back home—no matter how long you’ve been away; no matter how far down ...read more

    The God And Father

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 24, 2003
    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,548 views

    The Lord is presented as both God and Father and thus adequate to meet all our needs.

    In I Corinthians Paul twice promises that he would come to Corinth. Since that time, a long period has passed and the Corinthians wonder if he will ever come. He has put some heavy things on them in the first epistle and being unable to come in person he writes to encourage them in the ...read more

    What We Don't Have

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 24, 2003
    based on 28 ratings
     | 2,910 views

    Things we don’t have can cause us to forget what we do have.

    As the children of Israel journeyed through the wilderness, God miraculously provided for them and gave them all that they had need of. Being in a wilderness, in a place of lack and scarcity was not an obstacle to God’s power or his provision. They had provisions— Food—rained down from ...read more

    The Way To Win

    based on 10 ratings
     | 2,205 views

    Everyone wants success. The Bible gives us a way we can obtain it.

    EVERYONE WANTS TO BE SUCCESSFUL--WE ALL WANT TO WIN. SADLY, THERE ARE THOSE WHO WILL NOT. WHAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE? PAUL HERE GIVES US THE PATHWAY TO TRIUMPH FOR THE CHRISTIAN. I. THE ACTIONS OF THE WINNER--V. 12. A. APPROACH-- “WORK OUT” EFFORT INVOLVED NOT A FREE RIDE TO GLORY. B. ...read more

    Unto Us

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 20, 2003
    based on 120 ratings
     | 8,120 views

    The prophecy of Isaiah was more than just an abstract description of the coming Messiah; it tells us of the personal application of his titles.

    The passage in Isaiah 9: 6-7 is one of the spectacular prophecies given in the book of Isaiah about Messiah’s coming. I have read this passage many times, sung it, and heard it read. This week, however, two words have come alive in my spirit; two little words that change the whole perspective of ...read more

    A Tale Of Three Men

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 20, 2003
    based on 20 ratings
     | 3,843 views

    We look at three New Testament men--two good examples; one, bad.

    This third Epistle of John is a letter about three men. Their names are Gaius [GAY us], Diotrephes, and Demetrius. Two of the men stand in sharp contrast to the other one. Let’s look at these two first. I. GAIUS—the person to whom the epistle is addressed. A. Shown evidence in his life of the ...read more

    Don't Worry

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 20, 2003
    based on 37 ratings
     | 3,575 views

    Jesus speaks to us about worry and how we can avoid it.

    There are very few of us who have never, at one time or another, allowed ourselves to be overcome by worry. Stress comes at us from many directions and it is easy to give in and get caught in a web of worry. Jesus addresses this here in this sixth chapter of Matthew. I. THE COMMAND--V.25. ...read more

    The Perils Of Paran

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 17, 2003
    based on 10 ratings
     | 1,859 views

    The Christian life is fraught with dangers illustrated by Israel’s experience in Paran.

    What Paran was supposed to be for the Children of Israel. 1. A Place to Catch a New Vision of God’s Promise for Them. They had seen it from far but now they could view it up close. 2. A Place to Taste of Sample of What God Had in Store for them. Not only look but actually taste and see that ...read more

    Look To Yourselves

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 17, 2003
    based on 14 ratings
     | 2,853 views

    Self examination allows us to determine the genuineness of our faith.

    In the Second Epistle of John, he exhorts the Church to vigilance in the Last Days. It is important for us to be alert; not just to things that are outside us (false prophets, etc.) but more importantly to things that are inside us. As Jesus told us it is not the things that are external that ...read more

    A Preventable Tragedy

    Contributed by Chris Johnson on Oct 17, 2003
    based on 16 ratings
     | 2,450 views

    The tragedy of being lost is a wholly preventable one.

    Anytime there is a tragedy like the explosion of the space shuttle last week it seems to be made worse by the realization that in many cases it was a totally preventable tragedy. It did not have to happen but because of some failure, or something overlooked it did. When the shuttle Challenger ...read more

     | 6,121 views

    God gives all a gracious invitation to His banquet.

    The Parables of Jesus are wonderful little stories given to us in very earthyly language to illustrate the most profound heavenly truths. Jesus communicates to us in ways that we can understand and identify with readily. In this story a man made a great feast, he went all out to make it the ...read more
