    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Feb 28, 2024
     | 1,169 views

    Carnival time is often a time of chaos. Jesus created chaos because of the corruption in the Jerusalem temple. The cleansing of the temple is the "judgement" of God against commercial robbery of the poor by the religious establishment. Jesus is the replacement.

    FOLLOWING HARD AFTER GOD, EVEN IN THE MIDST OF TROUBLE. Psalm 63:1-11. As we enter into Psalm 63, there is both an intimacy with God, and a yearning after God. It was as if David was saying, ‘I know thee, but would know thee more.’ The Psalmist is not just on the fringes of faith, like the ...read more

    Set free to serve righteousness.

    THE WAGES AND THE GIFT. Romans 6:19-23. Upon conversion Christians, 'having been set free' from sin, 'became bondmen' to righteousness (cf. Romans 6:18). Paul apologises for thus speaking in such stark human terms: but it is “because of the weakness of your flesh,” he argues. ...read more

    By their fruits shall ye know them.

    WOLVES IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING. Matthew 7:15-21. Jesus warns against false teachers (MATTHEW 7:15). They are wolves in sheep’s clothing.

    The fourth significant sign in the Gospel of John.

    FIVE THOUSAND FED. John 6:5-14. Jesus looked up “and saw a great company” of people coming to Him.

    “When these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh” (LUKE 21:28).

    SIGNS OF THE END. Luke 21:25-33. The apocalyptic imagery which Jesus employs (LUKE 21:25-27) might at first seem uncharacteristic of our loving Lord Jesus: but He stood in the long tradition of the prophets of old (e.g. Joel 2:30-32; Isaiah 24:19). In fact, the return of Jesus as judge will ...read more

    The tribes of the earth may well mourn at His presence, but He will send His angels to gather together His own elect people from the four corners of the earth. Take courage, dear Christian!

    THE RETURN OF THE SON OF MAN. Matthew 24:23-31. Jesus here warns us against the danger of false Christs and false prophets. Even the very elect of God might be deceived, He says, "if it were possible" (Matthew 24:24). Well, how shall the second coming of Christ be known? Will it be ...read more

    JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD. John 10:11-16. In John 10 Jesus effectively castigated the Pharisees for their failures as the spiritual shepherds of Israel.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,059 views

    First, we must operate on ourselves, seeking out the sin that hinders us and leaving it with the Lord; and then, and only then, are we in a fit state to help the other.

    DO NOT JUDGE. Luke 6:36-42. “‘Ye all’ therefore be merciful, as your Father is merciful” (LUKE 6:36; cf. Romans 9:15). We are being called to be compassionate, to exercise grace towards those who are hostile to us. It was ‘when we were enemies’ that ‘we were reconciled to God by the death of ...read more
