    Jesus presented Himself as God, only to be rejected by the theologians. Would we have reacted any differently? John compels us to think seriously about our own response to Jesus, the Living God.

    *John 8:48-58* *Jesus, the Great “I Am”: The Eternal God* “The Jews answered [Jesus], ‘Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?’ Jesus answered, ‘I do not have a demon, but I honour my Father, and you dishonour me.

    Why are people so passionate to kill and torture good and innocent people who bring them God's good news? And what makes the gospel so compelling, that others will not keep silent about it?

    This message is about the need to share the Gospel, even though at time our heavenly Father may need to compel us to do so. We should never be ashamed to share the powerful Gospel of Salvation!

    SPIT IT OUT! Text: Rom 1:16-17 (16) For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

    Christianity claims that salvation can only be found in Christ Jesus.This claim may sound extreme, radical, and narrow-minded. We must therefore be compelled to examine the truthfulness of this claim with honesty and without prejudice.

    Knowing Jesus Deeper INTRODUCTION: Christianity claims that salvation can only be found in Christ Jesus. The Apostle Peter declared in the hearing of the Jews saying, “And there is no salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we ...read more

    The first set of four beatitudes focus on our vertical relationship to God, the second set of four on our horizontal relationship to people. Each of the eight builds upon the other so that there is an amazingly beautiful and compelling progression.

Just be a good Joe, an easy spender, a tolerant sort of fellow who never offends anybody. But how good are you at making enemies? If you are a child of God and ...read more
