    Contributed by R Daniel Carlson on Oct 25, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,130 views

    A Biblical understanding of Stewardship: God gives generously (faith, salvation, eternal life, forgiveness, etc) and by God's Holy Spirit, we may also give generously.

    Grace, mercy, peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Today is Stewardship Sunday. Today is the day that, and let me be straight forward with you, today is the day that we talk about money. About giving, about generosity. But I’m not going to try and guilt you ...read more

    Proper 18 (a) By nature we focus on ourselves, trying to be the greatest, to be Number One. But that leads to separation and loneliness. Christ has redeemed us, that we may be united with the Father and with each other. Therefore we live in love.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “One is the loveliest number” Our gospel reading today is in three parts. It opens with the disciples asking Jesus, yet again, who will be ...read more

    Disciples Contend For Greatness

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 28, 2015
     | 4,831 views

    I wonder, is there a bit of worldly ambition present in these men that He had called to be His disciples? I believe they may have been doing a bit of bragging among themselves, and now they come to Jesus to see who He thinks is the greatest disciple.

    Capernaum (53.1) Disciples Contend for Greatness Matthew 18:1-10 A LITTLE CHILD BECOMES AN OBJECT LESSON: At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

    Message focuses on the Great White Throne Judgement of unbelievers, emphasizing the seriousness of passing into eternity without Christ. Unbelievers should be alerted to these realities, and believers should be equipped and motivated to share the gospel.

    Rev. 20:11-15 5.31.15 Last week we talked about what the Gospel is and the importance of that message. Today I want to take as our subject, the Urgency of the Gospel. I want to use a passage in Revelation 20 to impress this upon our minds. Come with me to the last great event of human history. ...read more

    Every Word From The Mouth Of God

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jan 15, 2020
     | 6,231 views

    The phrase "it is written" is used seventy-two times in the Bible and even four times when Jesus is being tempted by the devil in the wilderness. (The evil one used it once, too.) Why did Jesus and the apostles lean so heavily on Scripture? Is it really so important?

    January 23, 2021 The Context: Peter asked Jesus a question: “How many times do I have to forgive the person who sins against me… 7 times?” Peter’s question was not intended to get Jesus’ opinion so much as it was to toot his own horn of grace and mercy --- Toot! Toot! You see, the Rabbis ...read more

    Truly, to the extent we adopt the humble attitude of a child, we will attain greatness in the kingdom of the Father. But what does that really mean?

    Wednesday of 19th Week ink Course 2019 St. Cassian of Imola Our Lord had a special affection for children, so we’ll learn much about our own filiation from studying what Jesus said to children and did for them.

    People feel "uncomfortable" about the topic of "Hell", but avoiding it will not change what Jesus taught about Hell; the Gospel frees people from the threat of Hell.

    “A Four-Letter Word and the Gospel” or “Hell and the Gospel” Matt. 18:1-9, 25:29-46 Recently someone told me that I talk too much about sin. IF I am guilty of that accusation, I can justify my actions: SIN is the reason for millions of people spending their eternities in ...read more
