    Take Up My Cross And Follow Me

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 16, 2015

     | 7,449 views

    Though we fall again and again, it is the getting up that marks the true child of God. So, we offer our lives in surrender to Christ’s purpose. The waters of our baptism renew in us the willing spirit that says, “Yes” to our own taking up the cross.

    In the famous words of the late American news commentator Paul Harvey, Matthew 16:21-28 is “the rest of the story”. It is a continuation from Matthew 16:13-20, in which Peter acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God. Now Jesus is telling his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem to ...read more

    What The Ascension Of Jesus Meant To Him, And To Means To Us

    Contributed by David Mcnally on May 20, 2014
     | 6,149 views

    Many Christians seem to ignore the Ascension, and even seem embarrassed to talk about Jesus physically going up into the clouds, but it is a historical fact. Jesus had done everything His Father required of Him, and He is now by His side working for us.

    Acts 1:6-11 Eph 1:18-23 The Ascension 29 MAY 2014 The New Testament records how Jesus died on what we now call Good Friday and how He rose from the dead on what we now call Easter Sunday. I prefer to call it Resurrection Sunday, 1. because the word Easter is not in the Bible, and 2. because ...read more

     | 1,067 views

    If you are a real born again Christian, you have Jesus Christ living within you. You are in fact part of His body, the body of Christ. You carry His presence with you. The presence of God, with you.

    I recall a few weeks back I was trying to get into the mindset of Christmas, so I was watching old Christmas cartoons from the mid 1900s. A fair amount of it was oddly poisonous to my spirit. It was not edifying or encouraging to my inner man. It was a lot of self focused desire for stuff, a lot ...read more

    Baptism Means Walking With God (January 9, 2022)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 11, 2022
     | 2,052 views

    Why did Jesus get Baptized if He was without sin? Jesus got baptized because He came to identify with the sinners He had come to save. In fact, it is through Baptism that sinners and the grace of God meet.

    BAPTISM MEANS WALKING WITH GOD Text: Luke 3:15-17, 21-22 Luke 3:15- 17, 21 - 22 As the people were filled with expectation, and all were questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the Messiah,  (16)  John answered all of them by saying, "I baptize you with ...read more

     | 5,938 views

    Nobody would ever forgive anyone for wrongs he had done; we only forgive people for what we accuse them, and we blame them only after we have judged them.

    In three powerful and straightforward words, Jesus commanded us, “Do not judge.” Let’s look into this Bible verse to see the whole context of what God is telling us: “Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be ...read more
