     | 3,247 views

    We can make a case for Nineveh's conversion being the greatest conversion in history. But whether it was or not, Jesus was clearly impressed. It shows us what genuine repentance looks like.

    When I was a child people would sometimes give me a book called ‘the Guinness Book of Records’ as a Christmas present. I guess many of us have come across it.

    A sermon on being a champion for Jesus Christ. Really these are credentials of every Christian but if we have these in increasing measure , we will be champions for the Lord. (Took outline and some illustrations from Steve Shepherd)

    God’s words are life to those who find them. So my question would be; what about those who don’t find them?

     | 24,623 views

    As Jesus endured the sufferings and horrors of the cross, He remained concerned for the well-being of others. In this compelling statement, we find Jesus made both physical and spiritual provision for His mother.

    Woman, Behold Thy Son John 19: 26-27 We have now come to the 3rd of Jesus’ sayings upon the cross.

    A Tale Of Two Kings

    Contributed by David Owens on Dec 26, 2022
     | 2,657 views

    In the story of the birth of Jesus, we encounter the clash of two kings, both called the King of the Jews. In Jesus and Herod we find two opposite ways to live, and come to understand the real meaning of life. Hopefully all of us will choose to follow King Jesus rather than King Herod.

    Religious excitement does not necessarily translate into spiritual worship. Rather, the one following Jesus must guard against being turned aside by that which appears good. Remember that good is enemy of the best.

    A look at the religious groups of Jesus day and how they were affected by their culture (as might be): 1. Zealots 2.Phariasees 3. Saduccees 4. Scribes 5. Herodians 6. Essenes

    How would you like it if someone spit on you? In our cultural setting it would be a sign of disrespect, an attempt to shame and humiliate a person.
