    At this point Jesus began to instruct His disciples more fully as the time drew near for going to the cross. The Pharisees had been treating the tax collectors and sinners who crowded around Jesus with contemp. He warns the disciples not to do the same.

    A rich young man came to Jesus desiring eternal life. He felt good about himself, but left saddened because he was unwilling to meet the Lord's demands for eternal life. We must come to the Lord by faith alone for salvation.

    The preaching of the Gospel is our responsibility, but is not the complete mandate of the Great Commission. It is just the beginning. Every individual member of the Body of Christ is called to make disciples.

    DISCIPLE AND DISCIPLER Matthew 28:16-20 Introduction: Many feel that the mission of the church is to merely be witnesses to a lost world. It is true that we are to bear witness of the risen Christ and His transforming power. We are told in Acts 1:8 that we are to be His witnesses to the ends of ...read more

[Abraham] (18) Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken [Gen 15], So shall thy seed [offspring] be….

    Sheep Among Wolves

    Jesus did not call us to an easy, comfortable life, but one of challenge and opposition, and possibly even suffering and death. He gives us forgiveness of sin and eternal life, but requires us to take up our cross as we follow him.

    Jesus would have fallen foul of the Health and Safety laws if he had been around today, and I imagine it would have been hard for him to advertise on TV. Just imagine someone saying today: ‘Come and follow me, and the chances are you will be spat upon, thumped, sworn at, and maybe ...read more
