    We Must See Jesus

    Only personal, significant contact with our risen Lord brings about true faith and obedience. All else is only ritual, and religious rhetoric. We MUST see Jesus!

    Although it seems in my own experience that the account of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus is primarily used when preaching during the Easter season, I am sure that through the years it has been a favorite passage for many preachers, as well as lay students of the scriptures. This ...read more

    If I had been Jesus, I would have shown the men on the road to Emmaus my scars and proved I had risen from the dead... but Jesus didn’t do that. Why?

    OPEN: For the past few weeks, I’ve been preaching on the topic of CSI-Jerusalem. We’re Crime Scene Investigators…or more specifically “Cross Scene Investigators”. The following story is true. And while it is somewhat morbid it serves to illustrate what I want to say this morning. Several years ago ...read more

    Introduction: My wife and I were nervous about our mission trip to Globe, AZ. It wasn’t the trip itself. It was because this would be the first time we had left our children in the care of another person for such an extended length of time.

    The gate could be prettier than the Temple – it is another paradox of modern religion. Big gates, large ways coming trough, but no salvation at the gate.

    Just look at him: an ordinary beggar, one among thousands who filled Jerusalem streets... And today was just another day, no better and no worse then all the other days that had made up the life of this poor crippled beggar. Who was he, we don’t know. The Bible reveals nothing about his life up to ...read more
