    Now when John in prison heard about the activities of Christ, he sent a message by his disciples and asked him, "Are you the Coming One, or should we wait for someone else?" Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and observe: the blind see,

    We’re in Matthew Chapter 11 this morning - a scene taken from the final days of the life of John the Baptist, and a bizarre scene it is! John has been sent to prison, though he probably did not realise at this stage that he was not going to be released - indeed, that he was about to be put to ...read more

    Buyer's Remorse

    I would bet that the disciples, when Jesus was off praying by himself, would discuss among themselves whether all this was worth it. Have we been scammed? I bet they had some buyer’s remorse. Some anxiety. Some uncertainty about their choice. I would!!

    Walking in the Reign #5 Treasure and Pearl - Matthew 13:44-46 SLIDE 1 A city boy, Kenny, moved to the country and bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100.00.

    Peter's Denials

    With Easter being a few weeks away our focus begins to shift to Jesus' death and resurrection. When Jesus told his disciples about this one of them became a little upset. You know about Peter denying that he knew Jesus but that's just one of his denials.

    PETER'S DENIALS With Easter being a few short weeks away our focus begins to shift to Jesus' death and resurrection. When Jesus began to inform his disciples about this one of them became a little indignant. You may be wondering if the sermon title has a typo. You know about Peter denying that he ...read more

    Our Lord often confronts us with questions we can‘t answer, and gives us duties we can‘t do on our own!! He used what was available (2 fish, 5 loafs) He used the people around Him (Lad, The disciples)

    John 6:4-21-Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near. Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?” But this He said to test him, for He Himself knew what He would do. Philip ...read more

    Palm Sunday - 2020 - Thy Kingdom Come - The Lord's Prayer - Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 4, 2020
     | 4,128 views

    Should we be celebrating with the disciples who were waving palm branches and shouting "Hosanna to the Son of David" or should we be weeping over Jerusalem like Jesus? This naturally combines with "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done ..." from the Lord's prayer.

    (This is a shorter sermon used on Facebook Live during the Coronavirus pandemic) What is today? Today is Palm Sunday, the day we set aside to remember what many call “The Triumphal Entry” of Jesus into Jerusalem. Where do we find that? Matthew 21:1-11 As you look that up in your Bibles to read ...read more

    Seated at head of the Passover table sits … Yeshua … Jesus. Sitting there, who do the Disciples see? like His Father, Yahweh, Jesus is “an infinite flower opening its petals” Like His Father, Yahweh, Jesus is like “an infinite flower opening its petals”

    In the beginning … before there was anything … there was … Elohim … our strong creator God who created the heavens and the earth.

    Jesus Stayed The Course Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 24, 2023
     | 2,450 views

    In today's segment from the Gospel of Mark, we witness how Jesus handled the popularity of the crowd and how He moved away from the crowd in order to appoint the twelve apostles. As we watch Jesus stay the course, we learn how to focus on the mission of making disciples.

    Prepare For Revival Series

    Revival affects our relationship to God, but also to one another. Peter talks about how as our salvation affects us it should give us a love for the unlovely. Jesus goes so far as to say, by this will all men know that you are my disciples that you love one another.

    To get a fire started you need some paper, dry kindling wood and a flame. Once you get the flame started you must take care to make sure the flame gets air. You may blow into the flame to get the fire to ignite. You also protect the small flame from too much wind that could blow it out. But once it ...read more

    SO FAR IN OUR SERIES ON FAITH, WE HAVE LOOKED AT LITTLE FAITH, GREAT FAITH, AND THEIR FAITH. NOW, AS WE CONTINUE, WE WANT TO TAKE A FEW MOMENTS TO LOOK AT “YOUR FAITH”. JESUS, AS HE SPEAKS TO HIS DISCIPLES, IS CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR FAITH, ESPECIALLY AFT

     | 5,147 views

    This sermon will be looking at Jesus’ final entry into Jerusalem as He came to the end of His long road toward His earthly purpose and final work for us all on this earth, the cross. It looks at how easy it is for us to get off track on what our final destinations as disciples is meant to be.

    INTRO: Back in February Pat and I were returning from a week in Florida. We have made the trip from DC here to Dillsburg many times. When we travel we often will listen to an audio book to help pass the time. This year we were coming up from Richmond and into DC and listening to our book and ...read more

    No one would have labeled this group "Most Likely To Succeed" in their High School Year Book. It is likely that even some of the disciples would not have chosen each other to be members of the group. We would not have selected any of them to lead ministries here in our Church.

    The Risen Christ Is With You

     | 161 views

    In the midst of tears, fear, confusion and discouragement, the Risen Lord Jesus was right there beside his distraught disciples and followers to empower them and encourage them. No matter what we are going through let’s never forget our living Savior will never leave us nor forsake us.

    Today’s meditation is based on John 20:14-15, Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him ...read more

    #1 Filled With Power Series

    Contributed by Robert Malcolm on Jan 8, 2025
     | 863 views

    I think, as followers of Jesus, just like the first disciple, we find ourselves wondering why God would leave us all alone … abandoned. But we are never really along … God has surrounded us with His family, the church and given us a great promised gift.

    ~ Intro: What do you do when you feel abandoned and alone. When I was 6 or 7 I was fishing with my father up in the mountains. It was beautiful, good fishing but dangerous because the country where we lives was in the middle of a revolutionary war and the area we were in was known to have rebels ...read more

    Humility Of Christ

     | 1,062 views

    In our text we see the Lord Jesus loving men who did not deserve it. Luke (22:24) tells us that at the Lord’s Supper, just after Jesus announced that one of them would betray Him, the disciples got into a dispute about which of them was the greatest.

    Opening illustration: We all can relate to Linus in the “Peanuts” cartoon strip when he shouts in frustration, “I love mankind; it’s people I can’t stand!” It’s easy to love the human race in the abstract, but when it comes to loving specific irritating people that I can’t avoid, the process ...read more

    Why Jesus Taught Us To Fear God Rather Than People

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 39 ratings
     | 9,388 views

    Jesus taught His disciples, "I will tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him who, after the killing of the body, has power to throw you into hell."

    It is easy to feel intimidated around powerful people. However, King David, who knew what it felt like to be afraid of powerful people who sought to destroy him once wrote, "I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears." (Psa. 34:4) Jesus taught His disciples, "I will ...read more
