    One Thing Jesus Could Not Do

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 22, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,946 views

    Jesus’ tormentors taunted Him, saying, "He saved others; He cannot save Himself." They unknowingly spoke the truth concerning Him. Indeed, He could not save Himself ... if we were to be saved.

    MATTHEW 27:42 ONE THING JESUS COULD NOT DO “He saved others; He cannot save himself.” Boisterous, mocking religious men surrounded the cross. Laughing at the helpless man hanging suspended between life and death, they belched out vile, venomous scorn. Among the taunts they hurled at Him as He ...read more

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Oct 18, 2008
    based on 8 ratings
     | 19,199 views

    Friendship with the world is enmity with God. Can any Christian truly afford the price demanded so that we can be friends with the world?

    JAMES 4:4 THE HIGH COST OF FRIENDSHIP WITH THE WORLD “You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.” Ouch! James is not nice! He calls fellow Christians harsh names ...read more

    The superiority of the covenant of promise in seen in 1) ITS CONFIRMATION2) ITS CHRIST-CENTEREDNESS 3) ITS CHRONOLOGY & 4) ITS COMPLETENESS

    The transition of terms between US President Bush and president elect Obama has an interesting ping pong of promises. Bush has to decide what he can do now that won’t be overturned in two months by Obama. A traditional end of term practice is Presidential pardons, where the president is allowed ...read more

    Emmanuel

    What really is it about God becoming man that is so momentous for you and me today? Let me share with you three ways in which I think that the coming of Emmanuel bears such great connotations for you and me today.

    Over the past several months I have come to realize a great appreciation for the miracle of birth. As Cora was going through her time of pregnancy I don’t know how many times the amazement hit me that she actually was carrying a human being inside of her. That was no potbelly. It was no unusual ...read more

    Religion Condemned Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 25, 2008
     | 3,666 views

    James exposes the difference between religion that comforts us and religion that reveals the power of Christ among us.

    JAMES 1:26 RELIGION CONDEMNED “If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.” Someone has said, “You can’t believe half of what you hear, but you can repeat it.” This points out a real problem in the church today—we ...read more

    Dining With Jesus Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 23, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 18,643 views

    The grave danger of familiar traditions is that they will become routine; and thus, the power of the symbol is diluted, if not destroyed. The Lord’s Supper is the continuing ordinance given to believers by our Saviour.

    MATTHEW 26:26-29 DINING WITH JESUS “Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, ‘Take, eat; this is my body.’ And He took a cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, saying, ‘Drink of it, all of you, for this is My ...read more

    Encouraging God’s people to seek wisdom in the storms of life.

    JAMES 1:5-8 WHERE WISDOM IS FOUND “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that ...read more

    “We already know that we’re not supposed to take drugs, have sex, or drop out of school. Sometimes adults think we’re just a bunch of goofballs, only interested in pizza and concerts. But kids in our youth group really do want to learn all about Chris

    The September morning air felt cold as I walked from my car toward the flagpole.

    There are great discoveries, but the greatest discovery that anyone could ever make, is Self-discovery.

    Mathew 16:13-18: “When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying: “Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?” And they said” “Some say that Thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets”.

    A challenge to professing Christians who claim allegiance to Christ as Master of life, though they do not reveal His reign over their lives.

    “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you?” All else being equal, we have as much power in our service before the Lord as we have obedience to His commands.
