    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 30, 2014
     | 4,556 views

    Living for Christ means that we live FOR Him, in everything we do. Sitting in judgment of others, hoping to prove ourselves superior, is SINFUL, and is exactly what the Pharisees thought they could do to Jesus ... and He calls them on it.

    A Harsh Indictment Mark 7:1-7, Isaiah 29:13, Joshua 24:15 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” ...read more

    God At The Market Place

     | 6,213 views

    A perspective on Mark 7: 1-23. When a trivial matter becomes a big issue more than likely we are following the ‘traditions of men’. Our focus therefore is on the wrong thing because we have forgotten God and do not have God’s love in our hearts.

    Mark 7: 1-23 God At The Market Place The closing of chapter 6 is also the introduction to chapter 7 and our Gospel text. In which Jesus and his disciples have crossed Lake Galilee to the land at Gennesaret on the north-western bank of the lake. Gennesaret was a small, but a very fertile plain rich ...read more

    This message examines the difference between being religious and being a Christian.

    Do you believe that there are people in the world who are lost and don’t even know it? The vast majority of these people are very religious. They do religious things, they talk using the religious jargon and they even dress correctly. In the world today there are approximately 4,200 different ...read more

     | 3,210 views

    This is a study of the church of Thyatira in the book of Revelation. This is a controversial subject but takes a conservative approach to understanding the book.

    Note: I used many sources to study this book, one of my favorites is Revelation: God’s Word for the Biblically-Inept by Daymond Duck and some out of different study bibles.

    The Message To Sardis: The Church With Reputation But Dying Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,618 views

    Sardis had the reputation of being a highly respected church, but it was dead and lifeless.

    Have you ever been in a church that was dead or dying? How does that happen? Usually it happens when a church gets satisfied with itself, with keeping things the way they have always been. This is usually a church that rests on its laurels and its past history, that revels in what used to be? ...read more

    The Restoration Of Sight And The Reception Of Salvation

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2022
     | 1,706 views

    In John 9, we read of the healing and salvation of a poor, blind man who has received not only physical sight, but also spiritual sight to see that Jesus was the Promised One of God. We also witness the deliberate spiritual lack of sight by the religious leaders who rejected the Light of God.

    John Newton (1725-1807) was one of the most blasphemous, vile, unscrupulous, cruel, and hateful men who ever made his living by means of the sea. While he had been reared in a goldy home and had been taught the Scriptures by his mother, he walked away from any type of religious faith and for ...read more
