    The  Danger  Of  An  Empty  House  (Christ The King Sunday 2022)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Nov 18, 2022
     | 2,023 views

    Consider what provoked Jesus to teach this parable.  Jesus had healed a man who was unable to speak. His opponents in the crowd accused Jesus of working for the devil (Luke 11:15) whose works Jesus came to destroy (I John 3:8).

    Luke 11:21 "When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are safe. 22 But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted and divides up his plunder. 23 "Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 19, 2025
     | 229 views

    Jeremiah is faced with the scene of destruction all around and he describes different events and how they affected people and material things. When people turn from God, the inevitable must happen, and that is God’s judgement upon the existing order.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 2 – DESCRIPTION OF EMPTINESS – CHAPTER 1:4-6 Lamentations is a little studied book but we wish to open it up and see some great gems here. There are very valuable lessons and principles among the sorrow. PART [A]. ROADS AND GATES; PRIESTS AND VIRGINS ARE IN ...read more

    The empty tomb of Jesus radically changed the plans of the women, the disciples, and eventually the word. The empty tomb breaks into our lives also and changes our plans.

    Mark 16:1-8 “Change of Plans” INTRODUCTION Little things make a difference in our lives. This truth was aptly demonstrated by the many stories of those who should have been in the World Trade Towers when they were attacked on September 11th. It takes only a few moments for us to reflect on ...read more

     | 8,209 views

    When we read the accounts of the resurrection of Jesus it seems as if His enemies believed He had risen and His followers did not. In this contemporary world many are trying to put Jesus back into the tomb and re-seal it with the stone of death!

    Friday! Jesus is dead. The sinless Son of God given as a sacrifice for our salvation. He is dead. Not so fast, buddy! Jesus is ALIVE!!! Just three days after He was crucified and put into a guarded sealed tomb! And, we’ve got two amazing groups of people 1) His enemies who know He’s ...read more

     | 6,101 views

    The life, and crucifixion of Christ are historical facts as is the empty tomb. Christianity is rooted in historical events.

    What is the most significant event in world history? No doubt, you can receive as many answers to that question as there are people. But for the Christian, the answer is simple. The most significant event in the history of mankind is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. “Some religions, both ...read more

    be informed that you cannot experience much of God’s power until you become spiritually violent. Another important truth is that violence is allowed in the spiritual world. The reason violence is allowed is that the powers that are working against people’

    The Bible tells us in Zechariah 3 that Joshua the priest was standing before God and the devil at the same time was standing at his right hand to resist him. But Zechariah was lucky because the Lord rebuked the devil on his behalf. According to that passage, the problem of Joshua was that he was ...read more

    Can you imagine what kind of morning that must have been. It started off as just a regular morning, yes there was sadness in the air, but can you imagine arriving at the tomb of Jesus and finding it empty?

    As the Pastor introduced his children’s sermon on Easter, he asked the little ones, “Do you see anything different about our church today?” Little Heather quickly figured out the difference and blurted out, “It’s full!” ` I cannot even imagine what kind of ...read more

     | 256 views

    The Son of God was divine already, but He thought it unfair to glom onto that identity. He became the face of the divine compassion and enduring love, God’s hesed, by emptying Himself of all His divine glory, all His divine dignity.

    Palm/Passion Sunday The critical reading we are given from Scripture today is not one of the two Gospels, not the triumphant Palm Sunday story of Christ’s entry to Jerusalem and not the story of the Last Supper, Passion and death of Our Lord. No, the reading that is crucial to an understanding of ...read more
