    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Feb 3, 2006
    based on 7 ratings
     | 3,889 views

    Jesus had a perfect relationship with his heavenly father. We can learn lessons from Peter and we can encourage each other to have a time and a place (like Jesus) for quiet prayer & solitude, with God.

    Verse 32, “…when they climbed into the boat the wind died down.” In other words with Jesus on board there was peace and calm. When Jesus and Peter climbed on board, and when the wind died down, the disciples must have been reminded of that previous occasion when Jesus calmed a storm (Matthew ...read more

     | 10,349 views

    We are tempted to define eternal life in light of a duration - it goes on forever. Jesus defines eternal life differently - He describes it in terms of a relationship with Himself. And that's important for us to consider because it is one thing to know

    This Is Eternal Life - John 17:3 - August 19, 2012 As a young boy I had one of those plastic bow and arrow sets where the arrows have the little red rubber suction cups on the end.

    Often in the scriptures the relationship between God and his church is likened to that of a husband and wife. On that glorious day when the Lord Jesus returns, the true church of God will be joined to him as a bride is to her groom on the wedding day. Rev

    Apostle Paul instructs us that Jesus so loves His church that He gave his very life for her in order that He might sanctify and cleanse her.

    Third in revival series at Emmaus Baptist Church, Quinton, VA: Dialogical (sought testimonies from audience at selected intervals). We may feel that our investment in faith is a waste; but it will not be if we can learn to grow in relationships.

    I hate waste. I despise it when I find out I have wasted something valuable – time or money or effort. Don’t you? Doesn’t it just frustrate you immensely if all your good work goes down the tubes? When I first learned to use a computer, I didn’t know you could set a word processor on auto-save. ...read more
