Betrayed, Let Down And Denied

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Apr 17, 2014

A short talk for our Billericay team Maundy Thursday Communion. Jesus washed the feet of his disciples shortly before he was betrayed, let down and denied. Whose feet would Jesus want us to wash?

Jesus washed the feet of Judas Iscariot – the man who later that evening betrayed Jesus when he led a detachment of soldiers and officials to arrest him. Many of us have at some point and in some way betrayed people that love us. I know that I have. Jesus washed the feet of his disciples who ...read more

What you focus on you get more of.

Matthew 7:1-6 1“Judge not, that you be not judged. 2For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. 3And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4Or how can you say to ...read more

Contributed by Michael Mays on Sep 11, 2021

We've all made promises to ourselves (or others) that we were going to try something new, or give up something old, for the new year. But one of the hardest things is reconciliation--making it right with someone who's offended you... or whom you've offended.

I. What Are Your New Year’s Resolutions? How about… Reconciliation? A. Introduction: “Civilizing the Fiji Islanders” Many years ago, when the Fiji Islands were first civilized, there was great interest in bringing commerce to this primitive society.

Abusive Acts Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Nov 2, 2023

Here we have two pointed statements in this verse, one referring to the reviles at dignities, the other to the defilers of the flesh. Brute beasts can be smart but they obviously do not have spiritual knowledge. Their reasoning was no more advanced than that of animals' instincts.

Jude 1:10 - Abusive Acts Jude 1:10: “But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.” KNOW NOT & KNOW The word Know means to gain a firm mental grasp of something or to become acquainted with ...read more
