    Of Grace And Envy

     | 5,130 views

    How is the Kingdom of heaven to be understood in light of laboring for Christ while the world enjoys the pleasures of sin? The parable of Jesus in Matthew 20 is helpful here.

    Matthew 20:1-16 Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard Jesus introduces this parable saying that the kingdom of heaven is like this. That's an impressive, if not disturbing introduction to this particular parable for many reasons. I believe that the kingdom of heaven in Matthew's gospel applies ...read more

    The man born blind was trapped in the fog from birth. Until the light of Christ illuminates us, we too are trapped in the fog from birth.

    “Trapped in the FOG” Introduction: Today we are introduced to a man who’s name could very well be “Mr. Born Blind.” Born Blind is a strange mixture of words in the believer’s community.

    Outliing the need to work together even when there are people we do not like are part of the team. Put the armour of light on and bury the clock of darkness.

    A church that has a vacancy can often cause worry to its members especially nowadays as we search for the right person to come and fill the vacancy. In the days of old, it used to be a whole lot easier to fill a vacant pulpit; we went to the Union and asked them who they had available? Who would ...read more

Wouldn’t it be an experience to play with a full-grown lion the way you would a kitten? Both would have been ...read more

    What is Church? Listen to Matthew 16:13-28. Pay attention to how Jesus describes "Church," his path, and our relationship with Him. Matthew 16:18 gives us the first mention of the English word “church” in the New Testament. In all of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John this word “church” only occurs ...read more
