    Authority In The Synagogue Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 1, 2017
     | 12,330 views

    Jesus possesses great wisdom and authority regarding the Word, and He also possesses authority over all creation, humanity, and Satan himself. We face nothing our Lord cannot handle. His power and authority are unmatched and unlimited.

    Authority in the Synagogue Mark 1: 21-28 As we continue moving through the Gospel of Mark, bear in mind that he is writing primarily to a Roman audience, seeking to portray Jesus as the Servant of Men. It is a dialogue that moves rapidly from one event to the next. The fast pace, with which Mark ...read more

     | 22,303 views

    "If anyone forces you to go one mile go also the second mile." This command is known by some theologians as:The "Second Mile Principle". Yet far too few Christians apply themselves .to this principle.

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service; there are four scriptures read before the Message. Today's lessons are: Leviticus 19L1-2,9-18; Psalm 119:33-40; 1 Corinthians 3:10-11, 16-23; and Matthew 5:38-48 BIBLE "If anyone forces you to go one mile go also the second mile."

    The Easiest Yoke We Can Carry

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Nov 9, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 11,753 views

    As we come together to worship every week, we admit our hunger for God. God sees our emptiness and feeds us the choicest food, the flesh and blood of the one who invites us today to take his yoke upon us and learn from him for he is meek and humble.

    Have you ever noticed that there are always some people who can never be satisfied or happy with anything? Jesus did, and in our Gospel reading from Matthew this morning he compared the people of his day to children who can’t be satisfied by any game or activity, whether it is festive or ...read more

     | 3,957 views

    Many are the blessings we receive through a relationship with Christ. One of which is being commissioned with sharing the Gospel. Rather than a burden, this is a tremendous honor!

     | 5,171 views

    Fear is a common enemy that we all face today. Fear dilutes the effectiveness of the work of God. Fear makes no sense and can be totally irrational. Moses was a God leader and he tried to prepare his people to face fear and trust God. Fear can be contagious... TRUST GOD!

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 4, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,176 views

    Having shared much in regard to establishing a firm foundation for the church, Paul emphasized the priority of the church - sharing the Gospel, above all else. Grace brings salvation, and then enables us to live for Christ. Transformed lives are the goal of the church.

He had instructed him to ordain elders in every city, those who would be able to aid in the leadership and ministry of the church. ...read more

    God Is Love, And We Are Not

    Contributed by Randall Long on May 30, 2019
     | 5,073 views

    A lot of us go through life with a watered-down idea of what God's love is. We will look at two incidents from the Gospel of Luke in which someone met that love face to face to help us understand both His love and His holiness.

    There is a saying that appears a few times in the Old Testament. Proverbs 9:10 puts it like this: "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom". Other verses use slightly different wording, but they all declare the value of the "fear of the LORD". I was troubled by that ...read more
