    Jesus' Brothers Get It Wrong Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 4, 2023
     | 2,164 views

    Jesus' brothers gave Jesus some advice. It wasn't very good advice. But we can learn from it, about assumptions, about accepting Jesus as Lord, and about dealing with pressure from our families.

    Today, we’re continuing in our series ‘Encounters with Jesus in John’s gospel.’ I’m going to focus on the first eight verses of John 7. These tell us about an encounter Jesus’ brothers had with him. As usual, I’ll try to give the context. Then we’ll look at what happened. After that, we’ll ...read more

    When we lived in Michigan I woke up early in the morning and found myself in that place between wakefulness and dreams. I heard these babies crying and realized that I don't have babies anymore. They were grown up. What I heard was 2 cats fighting on the fence… Sounded like babies crying. I ...read more

    Contributed by Loyd C. Taylor on Mar 12, 2023
     | 2,763 views

    It's one thing to know what love is, and to be commanded to practice love; it's another to be committed to love!

    Text: John 14:1-18 (1) Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. (2) In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. (3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive ...read more

    Get A Life

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 24, 2023
     | 1,626 views

    The life we get from Jesus, a gift from God through the Holy Spirit, requires cleansing and renewal daily, not just at the beginning.

    This familiar chapter from John’s Gospel is the lectionary text for today, the 2nd Sunday in Lent. It’s a good text, a familiar text, so familiar that when I first wrote it I expected it to be relatively smooth sailing. But it wasn’t. It was a difficult sermon for me to write, partly because it’s ...read more

    Tell Others About Easter

     | 1,819 views

    The good news for believers is that death is not the last word. Jesus Christ conquered death, and through faith in Him, we have eternal life. Praise God!

    I praise God that He is risen. He is risen indeed. For our friends in Pakistan we say, "Wo jee utha. Wo jee utha, beshuk." It is so good to have 20/20 hindsight. Friday we left Jesus in the tomb. But death could not hold Him. He conquered death and gave us the hope of the ...read more

    The "Day Of The Lord” Study In The Scriptures – Additional References Part 9 – Isaiah, Jeremiah Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 26, 2022
     | 1,799 views

    This posting completes the Old Testament references for the Day of the LORD. This is the time following the Rapture of the Church and covers the Tribulation and even beyond that. It will be a dreadful time of much death. Some of these descriptions are quite graphic.

    THE “DAY OF THE LORD” STUDY IN THE SCRIPTURES – ADDITIONAL REFERENCES PART 9 – ISAIAH, JEREMIAH The DAY OF THE LORD is “The Day of Jehovah” and its usage is always associated with something dire, with judgement, and with events outside the implementation of man. In other words, it is the ...read more

    As with each major sign, Jesus' words and deeds revealed where the hearts of the people were with God. The question is: How will we respond to His miraculous works and Words?

    We are finishing up with John chapter 11 today. Last week we saw how Jesus wept at Lazarus’ grave, commanded the people to roll the stone away from the tomb, and then raised Lazarus from the dead.

     | 4,023 views

    Would you baptize someone on Halloween? One preacher refused to do that because he saw Halloween as a focus on death... and he didn't want the young girl he was baptizing to become confused by the aura of death in the season, and having that connection ruin her walk with Christ.

    Ordinarily I read a Scripture before each sermon because anything the Bible says is more important than what I have to say. But today I'm not going to do that. The text will still be there in the body of the sermon, but I'm not reading first because I don't want to spoil the surprise. ...read more

    We can’t help it. We must obey God rather than any human authority.

    The book of Acts is marked by an outbreak of God's word confirmed by signs and wonders through the acts of the apostles who received the empowerment of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost in Chapter 2. And from there, the gospel continued to spread and flourish through men and women who ...read more
