The Non-Decision Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 30, 2016

Pilate declares Jesus innocent so Jesus should be set free. But Pilate also needs to compromise so he makes a “non-decision”. Pilate’s decision seems better than the decisive decision of the chief priests to call Caesar their king however a non-decision about Jesus is still a decision against Him.

Message John 19:1-16a The Non-Decision. Have you ever been in one of those situations where you don’t really make a decision – but by not making a decision you actually make a decision? It might happen to a person who gets asked to join in on a Fun Run. You have to run 10km. You are not sure if ...read more

Run Well Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Jan 17, 2019

When we run the race our calling is to be jars of clay. The Christian race is not run to bring attention to ourselves, but to put all the attention onto the treasure which is within us. When we run like this then we are running well.

Christmas & The Middle East Crisis

Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 12, 2018

The real reason for the Middle-East Crisis: THE DEVIL IS TRYING TO HINDER THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST by stopping God’s elect nation from getting reestablished, stopping their having Jerusalem, stopping the building of the Temple and the reinstitution of sacrifices.

Misplaced Trust Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Feb 26, 2021

Micah preaches at a time when there is spiritual lethargy. Micah’s nakedness is an indication of the lengths God will go to where He ensures that He gets our attention so that, ultimately, we fix our eyes on Jesus rather than having misplaced trust.

Jeremiah had to buy a loin cloth, then wear it for ages, then hide it in a rock crevice for ages. That is what he preached about in Jeremiah 13. Ezekiel had to lay on his side for ...read more

The Light Of The World Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 19, 2021

As the Light of the World Jesus takes us out of darkness and worldliness. Darkness and worldliness does not come because we are the worst we can be; it comes because we are following the distraction of Satan who masquerades as an angel of light.

Light takes away fear, uncertainty, and hesitancy. Light reveals truth. We get the metaphor. Those ...read more
