    My Sheep

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on May 1, 2007

     | 4,901 views

    Men do not want a Messiah unless he is tame; men want what they want. Becoming a sheep with a powerful shepherd is humiliating, because someone else is in control.

    At that time the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly." Jesus answered, ...read more

    A Jealous God Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 1, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 21,280 views

    God is “jealous” in the sense that He expects complete, exclusive devotion; not merely a partial, lukewarm, half-hearted religious observance. Worship belongs to God. He is worthy of worship and has a right to be “jealous” of it.

    The Bible clearly teaches that God is a jealous God. That doesn’t sit well with us; the very notion of the jealousy of God sounds offensive. We think of jealousy as an entirely negative quality--a sin. Yet God declares that He is jealous. God restricts allegiance to Himself alone: ...read more

He’s a small man, and he can’t see through the crowd. So, he climbs a tree. Poor Zacchaeus!... …or is he? Luke tells us ...read more
