    It is the “final story in Jesus’ public teaching ministry” and only Matthew shares it with us. There are two groups in this passage: those who go into eternal life; those who go into eternal death.

     | 3,803 views

    Whatever the reason was that made Zacchaeus want to see Jesus he was determined to see him. He went to great lengths. He ran ahead of the crowd and he climbed a sycamore tree so he could catch a glimpse of Jesus as he passed by.

     | 895 views

    Society is no different today than it was in the 50AD … they too need Jesus! The challenge for us to see today is will we be the ones who are faithful to share Him also? The early Church left us a great roadmap of obedience to follow, if only we will be so bold right now.

Because his life is so boring he daydreams of having exciting adventures where he is at the center of danger and excitement. But then back at work he finds ...read more
