The Miserable Son And The Maddened Sibling

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 24, 2022

Was the miserable son wasteful? Why did the father not punish the young son, if he deserved it? Was the maddened son self-centered and resentful?

Verses 11 – 19: Was the miserable son wasteful? The young son’s portion of the property was 33% (Deuteronomy 21:17). By and large, he would have gotten this at his father’s death, although fathers in some cases decided to split their property early and resign from dealing with the estates. What is ...read more

When King Nebuchadnezzar died, his son Belshazzar took his place. Like his father was in the beginning, he had a lot of pride and worshipped other gods.

Sermon # 46 - Be A Son, Not A Slave Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 4, 2023

God has called us to be His sons and daughters, but it is possible that we can live like slaves not understanding our position in Christ. May we be freed from every enslavement so we can enjoy the rights to be the true sons and daughters of God.

We read in Romans 8:15, For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. (KJV) There are two kinds of spirits that are mentioned in the verse above, one is the spirit that makes us a slave, and the other the ...read more

Fathers. We all have one. For some, father was a no show. He wasn't there. For others, father was there, but they wished that he wasn't. Others had good fathers. No matter what kind of father you had, there is a model father-son relationship for us to look at, Father God and His Son, Jesus.

Son Sets You Free Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Aug 5, 2022

True freedom does not consist in the word “freedom,” but in relationship to Jesus Christ, through abiding in His Word, and being His disciple. We will meditate from this passage on three realities. Admit who you are, admire who Jesus is, and advocate what Jesus does.

Text: John 8:31-41 Theme: Son Sets You Free Greetings: The Lord is good and his love endures forever. For the first time, John puts the word freedom for salvation. But the teaching on freedom offended Jesus’ hearers, they thought they have always enjoyed freedom though they lived under Roman ...read more

It is because of the Love of the Heavenly Father that we receive love because of what Jesus did for us on the cross. The love of the Father for the Son is so strong and real. This love includes US! We receive the same relationship with God the father because of His love of the Son.

Literally these are two statements, but they are typically combined as the 3rd saying because they are within the same context.
