    Text: Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me” (Luke 9:23). We claim to be Christians which indicates that we follow the “words in red” that are printed in our Bible. The “words in red” are the words spoken by ...read more

    "Witnesses" — it is that word which defines for Christ’s disciples their role and responsibility. We must not lose sight of the fact that the Holy Spirit came to equip the disciples to carry out their work of witness.

    ACTS 1:8 “Ye shall be witnesses” The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, DC, has a guard 24 hours a day. Every hour on the hour, 365 days a year, a new soldier reports for duty. When the new guard arrives, he receives his orders from the one who is leaving. ...read more

    All Christians are supposed to be ambassadors of Christ. As his ambassadors, we carry his authority. But we avoid showing it because we’re afraid of what people may think of us.

    Other Scriptural passages: Isaiah 66:10-16 Galatians 6:(1-10)14-18 Psalm 66 or 66:1-8 In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

    Compare your life with the life of a man who met Jesus up while on his way to punish Jesus’ disciples. What did the cross mean to him?

    Let’s think for a moment about a man who was moving up the ladder of success in his field, having been taught in the finest schools, awarded most likely to succeed among his peers, powerful and on fire with a bright future before him. But suddenly he threw it all away. He gave up marriage, ...read more

    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

    Denying Yourself

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024

    Revival revolves around this very notion and directly balances on the denial of ourselves and the cross we carry. Are we ready to take it on? Are we ready to carry our cross?

    Illustration: Passion Season - Jesus enters Jerusalem on a donkey. What is He denying himself? Jesus is in the garden of gethsemane. What is He denying himself? What cup does He choose? Jesus is put on the cross. What is He denying himself? The path is different because it is the path of ...read more
