    Jesus Makes Sense

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 31, 2025
     | 131 views

    Grace crosses forbidden borders to restore what systems abandon; Jesus speaks order into chaos, reclaiming the image of God within us.

    There are moments in Scripture when heaven steps across an invisible border, and the entire order of creation trembles. This is one of them. The Gospel of Mark says, “They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.” That sentence may sound geographical, but it’s ...read more

    Why does Satan lie & deceive & tempt & manipulate? And the answer is, "Because he doesn't have the power to force us to sin." If he could force you to sin there would be no need for temptation or manipulation."

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Genesis 3:8-13; 1 Corinthians 10:13; 2 Corinthians 5:9-10 A. The first 2 verses of Genesis tell us that in the beginning our world was formless, empty & dark. But then God gave shape to the formless, brought light into the ...read more

    Both Eve and Jesus were tempted just as we are. They were tempted by Satan, who used the three root sins.

    There are many sins, but they all come from three “root sins”…three heart problems. All that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 1John 2:16 Three Root Sins —the lust of the flesh —the lust of the ...read more

So they decided that everyone should fast, and all the people, from the greatest to the least, ...read more
