    Jesus The Controversialist Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 17, 2023
     | 2,145 views

    Mark portrays Jesus as strong and bold as He dealt with spiritual controversies "head on." In this section of Mark, he grouped together four incidents that showed how Jesus faced the controversies and taught the truth. We need to ask ourselves if we are more like Jesus or the Pharisees.

    A. Let me begin with a question: when you try to picture Jesus in your mind, how do you picture Him? 1. Do you picture Him being gentle, meek and loving? Certainly, He was all those things. 2. But Jesus also had other characteristics and other sides to Him. 3. When we read the Gospel accounts, ...read more

    The account of the great flood holds many spiritual lessons for the Christian today, for this story parallels the spiritual condition of our generation and gives us a glimpse of not only God’s judgement but also His grace.

    “All Aboard?!” Did you know that there were only ten generations from Adam to Noah? Think about it; only ten generations from the point when God created man perfectly and in “His image”, until he became so corrupt...that, when God looked down he saw; “.....that every ...read more

    Our priorities are defined by where we focus our eyes and our hearts and by what he hold on to as most dear. Christ-followers should set their priorities on the eternal and not the temporary.

     | 14,846 views

    Our nation is walking the same road that Israel took centuries ago and lost all their blessings. Therefore it is imperative that the church rises up and takes hold of their responsibility to lead the people in a godly way so that we are renewed.

    Opening illustration: A British newspaper reported that a woman had hidden $20,000 worth of jewelry in a plastic bag, hoping to prevent burglars from finding it. Later, having forgotten about it, she accidentally threw the bag out with her garbage. Several workmen searched for 9 hours in a landfill ...read more

    Judas Iscariot

     | 16,638 views

    Judas-probably the most notorious figure in history. But before we claim to be nothing like him I would say, “Hold on; not so fast.” We may not be a Judas but I do think we have the capability to develop some of his characteristics if we're not careful.

    JUDAS ISCARIOT We might look at the bad things people did in scripture-like Cain killing his brother Able or David committing adultery with Bathsheba or Peter denying he knew Jesus and think to ourselves, “I would never do such a thing”. This definitely holds true when it comes to ...read more

    We are to be Disciples of Jesus, why, how do we maintain our discipleship and whats the point? This passage of Hebrews gives us a bit of a heads up on the whole thing.

    Dynamic Disciples of Jesus: Hebrews10:19-25 It’s interesting when we look at the early days of Jesus ministry, he obviously had a plan and he set himself some goals. He decided that he needed some people to carry on his teaching, and his ministry; he knew that what he wanted to achieve was a ...read more
