    Jesus The Controversialist Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 17, 2023
     | 2,155 views

    Mark portrays Jesus as strong and bold as He dealt with spiritual controversies "head on." In this section of Mark, he grouped together four incidents that showed how Jesus faced the controversies and taught the truth. We need to ask ourselves if we are more like Jesus or the Pharisees.

    A. Let me begin with a question: when you try to picture Jesus in your mind, how do you picture Him? 1. Do you picture Him being gentle, meek and loving? Certainly, He was all those things. 2. But Jesus also had other characteristics and other sides to Him. 3. When we read the Gospel accounts, ...read more

    Jesus has finished everything for us. He sacrificed Himself so that we don't need to face punishment and we may have eternal life. When we accept Him, He would also love to transform our lives, to make our lives meaningful.

    "Later, knowing that everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, "I am thirsty." A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus' lips. When he had ...read more

    It Is Well

    "It is well", must have been the theme phrase of this Shunamite woman's life. She knew that there are things in life that we cannot control and yet she demonstrated her faith in God by keeping the standard in the face of extreme trials, knowing that He was in complete control.

     | 134 views

    Looking to God's Messiah is what brings true restoration to humanity, and sadly, even an esteemed teacher of Israel (Nicodemus) missed this. Today, we either believe in what Jesus has done for us, or we deny Him, and that is the easiest choice we may ever face.

    One of major problems most people face today are blocked entrances or exits. You see, we’re caught in tombs with stones covering them, and these stones keep us from entering the light of an abundant life Jesus came to give, which is what the resurrection of Jesus is all about.

    Rolling Stones Mark 16:1-8 Now, I knew the danger of naming today’s study, “Rolling Stones,” because many of you immediately thought of the English rock band by the same name with Mick Jagger and the crew.

    The fiery furnace. Three men were thrown into the fiery furnace, and yet, there were four walking in the midst of the Fire. Their faith said, “Our GOD is able”, because GOD said, “HE will never leave nor forsake you.” When faced with the fiery furnace, will you contend for the faith, or bow?

     | 4,071 views

    One of the most amazing privileges of believers is access to God through prayer. We all face trials and tribulations but praying will help us overcome. Why? Because a praying saint can lay down in trouble and wake up to a miracle. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

    Subject - Effective Fervent Prayer Invites Divine Intervention Scripture - Acts 12:5-11 “So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him. 6 The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries ...read more

    Life sometimes feels like a series of battles, storms, and midnight seasons. The Bible does not hide the fact that the righteous will face afflictions. It says “many are the afflictions”—not one, not two, but many. Yet, here lies the believer’s confidence: “The Lord delivereth him out of them all.”

    Opening Scripture: Psalm 34:19 (KJV) – Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.
