    Who do you let speak into your life? Is it someone who sees what God has done and worships him or is it someone who is an enemy of God like Amalek? Also - the difference between approaching God at Mt Sinai and at Mt Zion.

    There are some strong connections between chapter 17 and 18. They both tell us of encounters with non-Israelites. The Amalekites "greeted" Moses with warfare - and Moses had to respond by appointing men to a task (fight) while he administrated the battle and receiving help from his assistants. In ...read more

    The first coming of Jesus brought to us "the Word which became flesh," We beheld His Glory," and "Grace upon Grace. This is a different way to talk about why Jesus coming in the flesh is so important.

    God told Peter in Acts 10 - "What God has made clean you must not call common." What would that have meant to the Ephesians, and what can it mean to us?

    In Acts 10, we’re told the story of the first Gentiles who became Christians. God sent Peter to do preach to them and baptize them… but because Peter wouldn’t have done that on his own.

    What do we see in the mirror? With Jesus Christ as our faithful High Priest, we serve His Kingdom as a royal priesthood. When we embrace this we understand our selves and our world very differently.

    This message looks at how Paul was able to reach others by becoming all things to all people "without compromising his faith." Written in 2020, it is applied to showing compassion about differing views of the Corona Virus.

    In our message this week, we’re going to encounter something the apostle Paul said – something very interesting – that becomes the philosophy for his ministry, and that forms the basis for a number of chapters in the book of 1 Corinthians, including the chapters that we’re going to view today; and ...read more

  • A Vision Of World Peace Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 26, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,071 views

    Isaiah has a vision of peace. This vision came from God. What Isaiah gives us here is totally different from "visualizing peace". We need to see what Isaiah saw. The vision of peace the prophet saw and foretold.

    The subject of peace has universal interest. There are international conferences in process working toward world peace. Why is there such an interest in world peace? It is because of the atrocity of war and the devastation it brings. You may have seen the bumper sticker, “Visualize World Peace.” ...read more

    Part two in my challenge for the church towards leadership. But I warn you that my definition of church leadership that I am challenging you with today is a little different from what you might be thinking leadership within the church is all about.
