    The Crown Of Suffering Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 19, 2018
     | 4,976 views

    The scourging Jesus endured would have been unimaginably horrific, but His suffering was from over. Following the merciless beating, Jesus was then subjected to ridicule and mockery. All of this was done for you and me!

    The Crown of Suffering Mark 15: 16-21 Our last study ended with a gripping statement: And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified. It doesn’t reveal much detail. We are merely told that Jesus was ...read more

    Luke 23:6-12 [ESV] 6When Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilean. 7And when he learned that he belonged to Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him over to Herod, who was himself in Jerusalem at that time. 8When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see ...read more

    In Christ's interaction with this woman at the well, He gives us a picture of who He is and why He came into this world. He didn't come to run away from sinners, but to call them to himself

    John 4:5-26 She was tired.

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,386 views

    It is a good thing for Christians to “remember” what they were. No ability of the mind can be better employed to produce humility, penitence, gratitude, and love, than the memory. It is good for us to recall our former sins.

    Commentary on the Book of Ephesians By: Tom Lowe Date: 3/31/17 Lesson 9: The Gentiles’ Former State: Isolation (2:11-13) Ephesians 2:11-13 (KJV) 11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in ...read more

    Between the Judges and the Monarchy

    October 29, 2022 Samuel was the last Judge of Israel, and he serves as a link between the time of the Judges and the Monarchy, so our story begins with him {1 Samuel 1-3}.

    Three Crosses On A Hill: A Study In Evangelism

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2022
     | 1,575 views

    When we preach about the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for our sins upon the cross, we forget that there were also two men crucified on crosses next to Him. Each man had the opportunity to look to Jesus for grace and mercy. Their response determined their eternal destiny.

    The agony of the crucifixion and the final hours of Jesus are recorded in all four gospels, each written with their own unique perspective of what happened that dark day (Matthew 27; Mark 15; Luke 23; John 19). Each one tells of the jeering, mockery, contempt, and seething hatred towards the ...read more

    We know that killing another is wrong, but Jesus expands the realm of accountability for murder beyond what most, even in our day, perceive as murderous.

    A Word Concerning Murder Matthew 5: 21-26 In our text today, Jesus continued to emphasize the righteous standard that God expects and requires of humanity to have fellowship with Him. Here our Lord continued to point out man’s misguided perception of righteousness and He again rebukes the ...read more

    Why is this sermon called "Palm Friday?" Is it not "Palm Sunday?" Is not Friday called "Good Friday?"
