    Simon of Cyrene is on his way into Jerusalem when his plans are inconveniently changed when he is called upon to carry the cross of Jesus. The “silent witness” of Simon calls us to think about the ways Jesus uses the inconvenient moments of life to draw us closer to Himself.

    Message Silent Witnesses Mark 15:21 Simon Who Is Inconvenienced Even before Jesus is crucified He has faced a brutal ordeal. Looking at some verses in Mark 14 and 15 Mark 14:65 Some of the Sanhedrin began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And ...read more

    Both Pilate and Herod agreed Jesus was innocent, but the Jewish leaders refused to accept the verdict. This integrated gospel account of His trial includes prophecies of details foretold by Isaiah and the fulfillment of those prophecies.

    Pilate They tied Jesus up, and the whole crowd led him away from Caiaphas to the hall of judgment in the early morning. They delivered him to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea.(Matthew 27:2, John 18:28) The Jews wouldn't go into the judgment hall. They would be defiled (considered ...read more

    There are wooden crosses, metal crosses. Some are big, some are small. Some are plain, some are fancy. Cross necklaces are popular. But the cross is not just a decoration or a piece of jewelry. The cross of Christ represents so much more than that.

    Beyond denying ourselves and picking up our cross to follow Jesus, we must live courageously and unashamed of Jesus Christ.

    Christians, believers, disciples, followers, children of God, brethren, the church, saints, people of God and others… • Each of these terms are used in Scripture to describe those who belong to God • But not just belong to God, but belong to God through faith in Jesus Christ • Jesus is the unifying ...read more

    Did you know that God’s provisions are for every believer who will open his or her mouth unto Him. If you refuse God‘s provisions, you suffer spiritual, malnutrition, and fail to grow.

    Salvation - In Three Tenses

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 16, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,235 views

    Salvation is to be experienced by us in three tenses- past, present and future. We have been saved from the penalty of sin. Now we must be saved from the power of sin. Then finally, we will be saved from the very presence of sin.

    It is a good saying that half-truth is even more dangerous than a lie. A lie we can detect at some point of time in the future. But if we believe a half truth, there is a possibility that we would never come to the full truth. Gospel is the gospel of God. It doesn’t need any human touch on it. It ...read more

     | 220 views

    In a world obsessed with status, self-promotion, and influence, Jesus calls us to the opposite mindset - releasing our grip on personal rights, comfort, and ambition, so that the glory of God may be revealed through our obedience.

    Go! And Have the Mind of Christ Philippians 2:5b–7 (NLT): “Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human ...read more
