    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 21, 2025
     | 255 views

    In this chapter, the Lord Jesus will yet again confront the Pharisees and Sadducees for their religious hypocrisy and Peter will confess that Jesus is the Son of God, which is the rock upon which the church will be built.

    After feeding the 4,000 residents of the Decapolis, Jesus and His disciples traveled to the region of Magdala near the city of Caesarea Philippi. It is here where the Pharisees and Sadducees came together for the specific purpose of bringing down Jesus. Their mutual contempt for Him had woven ...read more

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 29, 2025
     | 187 views

    This is the chapter where Peter proclaims that Jesus Christ is the Promised Messiah and Son of God. This confession of faith is the catalyst that gave birth to the church, with Jesus being the Chief Cornerstone (1Peter 2:6-8).

    Jesus and His disciples entered the region of Caesarea Philippi, located 25 miles north of the Sea of Galilee. This was the territory where Philip, the brother of Herod Antipas, ruled as Tetrarch. It was here that the Lord asked the disciples, “Who do men say that I the Son of Man, am?” He was ...read more

    But they wanted a king “the same as all the other nations” (1 Samuel 8:5). So they rejected their true King, the God of heaven and earth. God granted their request and gave them over to their desires, but not without a warning.

    Man has tried to discount the cost of being a true follower of Jesus Christ. Being a disciple costs something of us - we must be willing to sell all to follow Him.

    Introduction Since the very beginning of time, man has responded to the Lord in many ways. In the Garden, Adam and Eve tried to redefine what our responsibility to a Holy God looks like. Then came men like: Cain, Jonah, Saul, Judas and others who continued this attitude of mediocrity and ...read more
