The last of the six famous parentheses (Matthew 5:21-48) between “Ye have heard that it hath been said” (Matthew 5:43), and “But I say unto you” (Matthew 5:44) - addresses the most blatantly misconstrued of these man-made interpretations of Scripture. ...read more

Teaching Through Healing

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 22, 2015

To be amazed is not the same as being converted.

TEACHING THROUGH HEALING. Mark 1:21-28. As we re-read Mark’s Gospel - as we must, from time to time - we find it to be a Gospel of two halves. The first half tells of Jesus’ presentation to the people as an authoritative teacher (Mark 1:21-22), who also happened to use healing (or more ...read more

Cross Of Pain, Cross Of Life

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 24, 2018

Sometimes its difficult to really realise the pain and the suffering that Jesus went through on the cross for US! There is art in the form of paintings and sculpture that depicts the crucifixion in some theological aspect rather than reality.

CROSS OF PAIN, CR0SS OF LIFE During these 2 weeks leading up to Easter called passion tide we focus our thoughts and minds to Jesus’s life and in particular His Sufferings.

A Missionary To The Gentiles

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 30, 2016

Anticipating the Gentile mission of Acts, Luke shows how it was first initiated by Jesus, through the unlikely figure of the man who came at Jesus from the tombs.

A MISSIONARY TO THE GENTILES. Luke 8:26-39. The account of the man with the Legion of devils is a dramatic demonstration of the kind of spiritual warfare which is going on for the bodies, minds and souls of mankind.

Increase Our Faith ?

Contributed by Neal Gracey on May 1, 2016

“It is impossible to live life having not been offended, but woe to the person through whom they do come! It would be better for him that a millstone be tied around his neck and to be thrown into the sea, than to cause one of these ‘little ones’ to stumble.”
