    The Cost Of Good Friday

    There is a cost to every gift and the Gift of Easter was bought and paid for on Good Friday

    Sometimes we hear people refer to the gift of Easter, and on Sunday we are going to reflect on the generosity that made Easter a reality for us, and for the gifts that are extended to us because of the resurrection. But that is Sunday and this is Friday. You see there couldn’t be a Sunday ...read more

    We are called on to continue Jesus’s work. We are called on to be shepherds, witnesses of God’s love. We are to be there for each other. We are to care for and support one another. We must put ourselves in the path of evil when necessary.

    John 10:11-18 is part of a longer discourse in which Jesus tells his disciples and us that he is the way to heaven and eternal life. In this passage he explains this concept by comparing himself to a shepherd. The image of a shepherd was one that was common among members of his audience. Palestine ...read more

    Good Friday Happened.

    Uses Scriptures to walk through what Good Friday is to us. This is a text I sent out to all of my Congregations to arrive in their text boxes at 3pm Friday.

    Why do we call it Good Friday? Etymology. "Good Friday" comes from the obsolete sense "pious, holy" of the word "good". Good Friday This is Good Friday and you should be receiving this at 3 p.m.. This is a reminder of what Jesus did for us: Scriptures ...read more

    Good Enough For Heaven?

     | 5,098 views

    Jesus met a young man who thought he kept the entire Law. Most people believe they are going to heaven when they die, and they base their conclusion on being a morally good person. But, is anyone really good enough to go to heaven?

    I’ve entitled our message this morning “Good Enough for Heaven?” with a question mark. Is anyone really good enough to go to heaven? An article from the Los Angeles Times says, “An overwhelming majority of Americans continue to believe that there is life after death and that heaven and hell exist ...read more

    We cannot help but shout of joy, amen? We cannot help but worship Him with gladness, amen? We cannot help but come before Him with joyful songs because we are His! Because Jesus … our dear, precious Savior … bought us with His blood.

    One of my favorite novels is Daniel Defoe’s “Robinson Crusoe.” Well … we call Defoe’s book “Robinson Crusoe,” but the actual title of the books is … “The Life and Strange Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe, of York, Mariner: Who Lived Eight and Twenty Years, All Alone in an Un-inhabited ...read more

    Jehosheba is the lady who saved Christmas. Remember, God had promised to always have one of David’s descendants on the throne: “His offspring shall endure forever, his throne as long as the sun before me” (Psalm 89:36).

    Good News And A Warning

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 10, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,857 views

    Jesus will come again and establish his kingdom. Great news! But when he does, 'one will be taken and the other left.' It's a sombre warning. For one group, the result is death. We need to understand this message to understand why Jesus had to go the cross.

    We’re following Jesus and his disciples on their journey from Galilee to Jerusalem. As Jesus travelled, he taught about ‘the kingdom of God.’ But the Pharisees don’t see much sign of it. So they ask Jesus when it will come. It’s a sensible question! Jesus tells them that the kingdom of God ...read more

    We grow soft and cold without it. Sometimes it takes the fire of persecution for us to seek the fire of God.

    1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 19 Wherefore let them that ...read more

    Excelling In Goodness And Mercy Series

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Aug 19, 2021
     | 2,415 views

    In the pursuit for godliness they will discover there are some negative characteristics that will block their ascendancy to excellency. Yet, disciples also learn lessons about how to experience a life characterized by goodness, mercy, grace, and joy

    A major part of learning how to do something is learning the "do nots." To illustrate: One of my first lessons related to learning how to be a locomotive engineer involved learning certain things that I must not do—such as going to sleep. While pulling a train, you do not reach down ...read more

    Jesus challenged the Pharisees..... religion is useless and worthless, ineffective when it substitutes a human plan of salvation for God's plan of redemption; when it rests upon man's works. (Illus. Pharisee robes and rules.) (Illus. what people do to look better)
