    Why Was Jesus Born Into A Family That Was Poor?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 5, 2018

    Luke's gospel tells us that Mary and Joseph offered the poor person's sacrifice when taking Jesus to the Temple. Why would God have chosen for His Son to be born into a poor family?

    TWO YOUNG PIGEONS: Jesus’ family gave the poor offering. - Luke 2:24. - Leviticus 12:8. - Unless you know the Old Testament background, the mention of dove/pigeon offering is one that we would pass right over. We have no frame of reference on what it means. - When we look back in Leviticus, ...read more

    Jesus spoke to the Disciples, and to the crowd, but He also speaks to us. He spoke to the 'poor in spirit' and explained that they were blessed. But, who and what are the poor in spirit? This sermon attempted to answer that question.

    Opening and Introduction In today's Gospel lesson, we heard the introduction to the most famous sermon that Jesus delivered, the Sermon on the Mount. 1.

    Simon Of Cyrene: A Poor And Blessed Man

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Mar 10, 2025
     | 656 views

    When Simon of Cyrene was forced to carry Jesus's cross, he probably was upset. But that was a blessing in disguise. If he had not been forced to carry Jesus’ cross, he might not have known Jesus and received His grace.

    Let’s read Mark 15:16-32. Last week we learned that even though Pilate knew Jesus was innocent, he eventually gave in to the pressure of the crowd who wanted Jesus crucified. Verse 15 says: “Pilate, wanting to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas for them. But he flogged Jesus and handed him over ...read more

    "To be poor in spirit" refers to one feeling spiritually broken due to life's challenges and difficulties. They have a genuine heart for God. This study will explore the characteristics of a person broken before God, which the Bible calls the "poor in spirit."

    It’s ironic that when dealing with these positive commandments, we don’t ever come to a point when we can say, “I have fulfilled them.”

    Thursday before Epiphany 2017 Joy of the Gospel St. John teaches us today in both Epistle and Gospel: “By this we know love, that [Jesus] laid down his life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

     | 10,488 views

    This is a sermon mainly designed to be used at Harvest in the UK which uses the harvest laws from Deut 24 to think about the God given responsibility that the "haves,", those with more than enough, have to the "have nots," those in real need.

    HARVEST AND THE "HAVE'S" AND "HAVE NOTS" "When you reap your harvest in your field and forget a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to get it. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. When you beat your ...read more
