Judgment Against Lawyers And Pharisees Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 22, 2017

Today’s lesson is about the conversation between Jesus and a certain Pharisee that took place during dinner. Jesus says many of those things to the Pharisee and his guests that He will say to them later in the temple. Jesus is consistent in what He says

John 1:1-5 Series

Contributed by Jake Andrews on Jul 29, 2025

When John begins his Gospel, he doesn’t waste any time getting to the truth.Before he tells us what Jesus did,
Before he shows us where Jesus went,
Before he records a single miracle or message—
He tells us who Jesus is. Because you’ll never understand what Jesus did until you know who Jesus is.

John 1 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was ...read more

Love Beyond Limits Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 8, 2021

Just as it was in Jesus’ day, many have a perception of love, but it is not love as God commands. Much of what we see today described as love does not fit the biblical model for love.

For the past several weeks we have considered various contrasts Jesus made regarding time honored traditions and the reality of what God ...read more

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 10, 2019

God has called His people to be separate from unbelievers, and to separate from so-called believers who are living immoral and profane lives. Yet God has given us the ministry of being spiritual medical doctors to the lost and dying around us.

A Spirit Filled Church
