"I Am The Bread Of Life: Offensive Words”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Aug 6, 2024

The radical claim of Jesus is that He is God in flesh whom the Father has sent into the world to provide forgiveness and eternal life. He is the rue manna. There is a chart that reviews the different understandings of the Sacrament adopted from Crossways.

In Jesus Holy Name August 11, 2024 Text: John 6:38,40 Pentecost XII “I AM the bread of Life: Offensive Words” Last Sunday our Gospel reading was from John chapter 6. Today our Gospel reading is from John Chapter 6. I said to myself “How can I preach on the same theme, “Jesus is ...read more

No Resurrection? How Does That Make Sense?

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 17, 2024

It’s not clear what the back-story is for this claim, but it leads to one of Paul’s best little classes in logic. Perhaps there was a Sadducee-trained Jewish Christian in Corinth. They didn’t believe in any resurrection.

Friday of the Twenty-Fourth Week in Course 2024 From the beginning of the Church way back in the first century Christians have been proclaiming and celebrating the physical Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. That was a real historical event that occurred three days after He was murdered ...read more

The Beauty Of Christian Life

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 5, 2024

The reason why many Christians, who claim to be holy, look miserable and depressed and long-faced is that they try to produce a sort of holiness by themselves through some rules made by men. They live again under law.

The happiest person ever walked on the face of this earth is Jesus Christ. This doesn’t mean that He was the wealthiest, healthiest, most handsome and most influential person ever lived! But the joy of his life was centred completely on his trust in his Father (God Almighty). Jesus was not moved ...read more

In Christ

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jan 15, 2023

What does it mean to be in Christ? Let’s allow the Bible to tell us. Several churches claim that eternal life is only available within their walls. Who does Jesus say will have eternal life?

The Glory Of God

Contributed by Dan Cormie on Nov 19, 2005

We sing about the glory of God. We speak about experiencing the glory of God. We do all kinds of different things and claim that it is “All done to the glory of God”. But do we really understand it?

20, November 2005 Dakota Community Church The Glory of God We sing about. We speak about experiencing it. We do different things “All to the glory of God”. We say we want it, that we want to bring it to His name. When someone compliments us on an act of Christian service we respond with, “Glory ...read more

Motive

Contributed by Lou Nicholes on May 25, 2005

Apparently the false teachers in Corinth were suggesting that Paul’s unwillingness to accept support from the church was simply a coverup. They thought that he really had a love for money, and the offering he claimed to be taking for the suffering saints

THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: H. L. Gee somewhere tells of a tramp who came begging to a good woman’s door. She went to get something to give him and found that she had no change in the house. She went to him and said, “I have not a penny of small change. I need a loaf of bread. Here is a pound ...read more

Use Your Head!

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Nov 15, 2004

Use Your Head! 1) Don’t reject God’s claim on your life; ) Don’t reject God’s call to repent; 3) Don’t reject God’s Christ for salvation.

Have you purchased anything lately that doesn’t have a warning label attached to it? It seems to me that everything now from artwork to zippers comes with warnings - some of them quite humorous. For example irons have warning labels that read: “NEVER IRON CLOTHES WHILE WEARING THEM”. If you rent a ...read more

I'm Not Perfect, But ... Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 21, 2003

We justify not being mature by claiming that we are just like everyone else, or that we are at least working on that goal. But our example is Jesus, who gathers up our incompleteness into Himself and shows us the way to mature.

When I first announced the title of this message, “I’m Not Perfect”, somebody was sharp enough to reply, “Yes, we’ve noticed, we’ve noticed.” Well, thanks a heap! Don’t you know by now that when I say something self-deprecating, you are supposed to shower me with compliments and bathe me in ...read more

Healing From Guilt

Contributed by Dan Waite on Jan 14, 2006

God’s aim is to make people holy (v 10). However, one of the basic philosophies of Christianity is that everyone is guilty, by divine standards, and it is a crime to claim innocence. The reality is that we feel we are not holy for a variety of reasons.

A Success Story

Contributed by Alberto Valenzuela on Oct 11, 2006

Society hammers into our brains the idea that success is to be measured with goods. The media claims that he who dies with the most toys wins. And we all want not only the best but the latest toys. We all want to win.

A Success Story All humans, men and women, fall in three categories, in relationship to being successful. Those who are successful, those who aren’t successful and those who are on their way to being successful. If we were to subdivide them even further we could mention those who are on their way ...read more

What Happened To The Narrow Way

Contributed by Marty Roark on Jul 3, 2008

Close minded as you may claim it is, the Bible is the final authority for our lives and even though there are many paths in this world that will take you many places, only one “way” leads to God and eternal life.

What happened to the Narrow Way? The Narrow Way Matthew 7:13-14 13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find ...read more

No More Bread

Contributed by Ben Irabor on Aug 9, 2010

Our constant claims of hot bread backed only by stale crumbs on frayed carpets of man’s tradition have left countless generation’s hungry, homeless, and with nowhere else to go but Moab.

No More Bread, “In the House Of God” The priority of God’s presence has been lost in the modern Church. We‘re like bakeries that are open, but have no bread. And furthermore, we’re not interest in selling bread. We just like the chit-chat that goes on around cold ...read more
