    "coming Home"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 3, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,829 views

    This is perhaps one of the most powerful stories in Scripture to me because the two people who Jesus interacts with come from two completely different backgrounds -one from a nice, comfortable home and one from a home that was filled with pain.

    “Coming Home” Mark 5:21-43 One of my heroes in Scripture is the great apostle Paul. Of the 27 books in the New Testament, we believe at least 13 were written by him. About one half. One of those was his letter to the church in Ephesus and in chapter 3 and verse 20 he says this... “Now to HIM who ...read more

    Is it just me, or does it seem to you too that it is getting harder with each passing year to live the Christian life? There are so many things that challenge our Christian life.

    Introduction Is it just me, or does it seem to you too that it is getting harder with each passing year to live the Christian life? There are so many things that challenge our Christian life.

    Christ is the object of our life. As speeds the ship towards the port, so hastes the believer towards the haven of his Savior’s bosom. As flies the arrow to its goal, so flies the Christian towards the perfecting of his fellowship with Christ Jesus.

    Colossians 3:1-4 (NKJV) “An Old Challenge For A New Year” Spurgeon said, “Paul’s marvelously rich expression indicates, that Christ is the source of our life. “You hath he quickened who were dead in trespasses and sins.” That same voice which brought Lazarus out of the tomb raised us to newness of ...read more
