    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Nov 1, 2016
     | 6,776 views

    What others think of us is irrelevant to the Lord. It is what he see in us that is important. Zacchaeus show us how the power of God is used to free us from the influence of others, and free us to be ourselves.

    The pigs in Mark 5 teach us some important lessons about how to have a full life: Don’t let Satan destroy you; don’t let society detain you; instead, trust Jesus to deliever you.

Some time after it was installed, a visitor to the town discovered that all the people were sleeping during the day and working at night.

    This is an insert to my book, "The Narrow Road" on Amazon.The sermon discusses how lawlessness, defined as the rejection of biblical authority and moral order, is increasingly evident in society and even within churches, leading to confusion and chaos.

    Understanding Lawlessness: A Biblical Perspective In 1 John 3:4, we read, "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." Sin, at its core, is lawlessness. It is not merely the absence of law but rebellion against the moral order established ...read more

    How shall the people of God respond when God brings judgement on a wicked society? Abraham provides an example of the way in which we are to respond when God judges evil.
