    Acceptance And Rejection

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 25, 2007
    based on 8 ratings
     | 9,600 views

    We know what both acceptance and rejection feel like. What must God feel at our rejection of Him? In Jesus He turns around our rejection into His acceptance of us. We can accept our acceptance.

    “He came to what was his own, and his own people did not accept him.” Do you have experience with both acceptance and rejection? I imagine you do. No one is so fortunate as to have had everything he wants, and so we have all experienced rejection. And no one is so hard-up that she has been ...read more

    The Prophet Who Felt Loss

    The life of Elijah is such an encouragement to us as we are able to identify with him in his reaction to the events of his day - God is the same for us today and is able to strengthen and enable us to witness for Him.

    THE PROPHET WHO FELT LOSS 1 KINGS 19:1-19 Elijah was one of the greatest prophets of all time. God produced many mighty miracles through him; yet we see him at one of the low points in his life; in fact perhaps one of the darkest moments of his life. Amazingly, this dark period takes place ...read more

    When I was a freshman in high school I walked through the doors of mission Christ for the first time. There were a lot of reasons I came.

    A Night To Remember John 20:19-29 I went to a very small Christian school. When I graduated there were 66 people, not in my class, that was the entire high school 9-12 grades.

    If you’ve ever been to our Anglican seminary - Moore College in Newtown - you may have also visited its unusual chapel, known as the Cash Chapel (named after the guy who donated it, rather than how it was paid for).

    How do we understand the wrath of God?

    Introduction… For me, Romans 9 has always been an especially troubling chapter, one I’ve avoided till I saw that it contains a message of hope. Paul appears to be describing God as less than loving. He seems to be teaching a kind of “double predestination”, with God deciding how many people He ...read more

    Too many people think religion is something they cannot do. God has not distanced Himself so far from us that we cannot find Him.

One of the most important things that happened at that gathering was putting into exact terms the Christian belief in Christ ...read more
