    Grace For The Despised

    Contributed by Jeff Hagan on May 27, 2017
     | 6,823 views

    True grace goes much deeper than we tend to think it does. We tend to reserve it for those who are already followers of Christ, however, Christ exercised grace, mercy, and love even to the most despised of sinners.

    Introduction: I’m sure most of you are familiar with the biblical account of a tiny little guy by the name of Zacchaeus. Well, far from just an entertaining story popular among Sunday School children, the incident with Zacchaeus gives us an incredible example of God’s grace and love. We see in ...read more

    The Lord is my Shepherd... I must not lack.

    The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures: he leads me beside the still waters.

    As God’s sheep we have the advantage over the wolves. We don’t need to fear, just remember who we are in Christ.

    SUNDAY MORNING 8/19/2007 SHEEP POWER! MATT.10:16 What do you think about this as a job description? “WANTED: VERY KIND, LOVING, AND FAITHFUL PEOPLE TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THOSE WHO MAY BE MEAN AND AGGRESSIVELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THEY WON’T WANT TO HEAR THE MESSAGE.” This doesn’t sound like ...read more

    Jesus’ taught His disciples then as He teaches His disciples today how to pray what has become the known as Lord’s Prayer. We are friends of God and we are also His adopted children. “A friend in need is a friend indeed”.

     | 1,038 views

    The peace that Isaiah speaks of, the peace Jesus brings us, comes only when both the wolf and the lamb come at his call and obey his commands.

    Everybody wants peace. Well, almost everyone. We all know people who are never happier then when they’re in the middle of a crisis, and of course there are terrorists and other people who try to get what they want by violence. But even those would probably say that they too want peace. It’s just ...read more

    In life storms will come. A crisis comes. Anxiety will be your companion. . Bull markets go bear. Terrorists terrorize. Good people turn bad. The other shoe will drop. The disciples were in a storm till Jesus arrived.

    The loss of one's livelihood might well cause normal people to do some strange things. When Paul was in Ephesus, one man's speech to his co-workers led to a riot! How it started and ended is strange indeed.

    Introduction: These last verses of Acts 19 show some of the opposition Paul faced as he taught the Truth of God and God’s Word to the people in Ephesus. Paul had seen the Lord work in a number of ways; now, he was going to experience some of the hatred the devil had for him and for all those who ...read more
