    When youth move into adulthood with high Christian values, they get a head start in life and will thankfully escape many pitfalls! Parents can’t make children have character.

    The Question Of The Authority Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 15, 2014
    based on 8 ratings
     | 10,441 views

    Who is Jesus? Who is Jesus to us? The difference between words and action. Time for true repentance, and amendment of life.

    THE QUESTION OF JESUS’ AUTHORITY. Matthew 21:23-32. This conversation follows hard on the heels of Jesus’ cleansing of the Temple (Matthew 21:12-16), and the symbolic withering of the fig tree (Matthew 21:18-20). “Who gave you the right to do such things?” demanded the Temple authorities, and ...read more

    The Test Of Power And Authority

     | 8,422 views

    Many times, we get hurt and we wanted to take revenge. But God reminds us through the story of Joseph that we have been placed by God in that position of authority for a greater purpose and that we must always manifest a humble heart.

    THE TEST OF POWER AND AUTHORITY Last week, we talked about the promotion of Joseph to the second highest in command of Egypt. He had been lifted up from the dark dungeon of despair to the palace of great responsibility, authority and power. It was a long process of waiting patiently and ...read more

    Jesus' Authority Is Questioned Series

     | 11,682 views

    When we commit ourselves to God, we remove all hindrances. This is what the Pharisees couldn't do because they were only committed to themselves. If we do not want to be modern day Pharisees, we've got to be willing to devote ourselves to Jesus!

    Jesus’ Authority is Questioned Mark 11:18-33 - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” - Jesus’ teachings, while difficult for some to deal with, are always timely -- God always allows us to hear from Him at just the right time - Before we begin ...read more

    We have the prophetic word fully confirmed in Jesus.

    THE FOUNDATIONAL AUTHORITY OF SCRIPTURE. 2 Peter 1:19-21. The church is built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone (Ephesians 2:20). At the back of Peter’s apostolic testimony to the transfiguration of our Lord (2 Peter 1:16-18) lies ...read more

    Respect Civil Authority Series

    Peter indicates that our salvation should impact how we related to governmental authority. Submission is not a popular topic, but it is needful, in our rebellious & self-gratifying society. Submission is recognition of God¡¯s right to govern our lives.

    1 PETER 2: 13-17 RESPECT CIVIL AUTHORITY [Renewing Hope Series] [Romans 13:1-7 / Acts 4:19-20; 5:29] From this point on 1 Peter discusses the effect of our salvation on our life and relationships. Because of our fallen understanding, what living the Christian life entails needs to be spelled ...read more

    I share a personal story about my confrontation with a man possessed by a devil and how the Lord helped me understand that the authority we have as His sons and daughters is real.

    Good evening. Bless the Lord, oh my soul and all that is within me. Bless His holy name. I want to say up front. You see me here on a Sunday night with 30 minutes to deliver a message. I want to say up front, loudly and clearly, we have a pastor of great faith! (Laughter) Turn with me to First ...read more

    Whenever there is confusion, it can't be from God. Wherever there is confusion, God is not there. God is the God of peace, and His presence is characterized by peace.

    God is not the Author of Confusion Study Text: 1 Corinthians 14: 31 - 33 Introduction: - The Bible states categorically, that God is not the author of confusion. This is true not only in the case in our text, but in all aspects of life. - Confusion divides, separates, and ...read more

    Jesus had compassion on people and healed them.

    Authority over Sickness Mark 1:29-39 As we have traveled through the first chapter of Mark, we have seen many demonstrations of Jesus’ authority. Jesus’ authority over nature is seen when Jesus was driven into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit and lived with the wild beasts. The Judaean wilderness ...read more

    All of us have driven through neighborhoods and noticed that many of the houses are built with carports - some even with double carports - to park their cars out of the bad weather.

    In many of these homes, from the street you see the garage doors are open, and you immediately come to the conclusion there is no way they could park a car in there because they are filled with what looks like junk. It is even dangerous to walk into some of these carports because you might get ...read more

    When Paul wrote Romans chapter 13, did he have in mind total obedience and surrender to a totalitarian government? "If the civil power commands us to violate the law of God, we must obey God before man" (Wuest).

    This morning, I am going to begin our message with an illustration from a 2018 CNN article written by Thomas Weber: “On March 21, 1933, Germany was in turmoil. Less than two months after the Nazi seizure of power, even people with pro-regime leanings felt disquieted about the draconian measures ...read more
