    There are many excuses for rejecting what God has to offer, and God sees through them all. If we’re full of the world we’ll have no appetite for Heaven.

    Today’s parable starts out as table-talk. At a dinner, Jesus mentions “the resurrection of the righteous”, an encouraging truth. Someone at the table gets so excited, he declares a Beatitude: “Blessed is everyone who will eat at the banquet in the Kingdom of God!” ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 16,220 views

    Bringing people to Jesus is a partnership. We encourage one another to witness and tell the good news to others about Jesus and His forgiving power. Jesus alone can forgive sin.

    Four Men of Faith Mark 2:1-12 One of the challenges we have in witness to people who have not yet become believers is to communicate in a language they understand. Sometimes our tendency is to use language of the church, “Christianize.” Words like regeneration, propitiation, ...read more

    Proverbs gives us the proper context for giving. Without saying the word Tithe it reveals to us that we are to honor God with the first and best of all our increase, substance, weath, money. Your faithfulness will never be an issue of percentage it will

    Faith is not rules concerning what we must do to receive from God. When we see Jesus as big as He really is then we relax in Him. This is where faith is born.

    I recently had a chat with a good friend and I opened up that there is a need to understand the difference between the faith of Jesus and our faith. There are many Christians who always want to start off asking themselves “Do I have enough faith?”. They want to be sure that they are ...read more

    John speaks about interceding for wayward brothers and sisters in Christ.

    John tells us two things with respect to prayer in our passage for today. 1. We should pray according to God's will - vs. 14-15 What does it mean to pray "according to God's will"? A.

    Would we cry out to God to confess that we have sinned and He is just? Sometimes it is appropriate to cry out as a community for God’s mercy. The Israelite's knew enough to cry out to God for mercy … can’t we?

    The way I forgive others should look like the way God has forgiven me in Christ.

    Today, we are going to conclude our thoughts on this passage. We made note last time of how Paul tells what it will look like when we forgive others. It will look like what God has done for us in Christ through the cross - v. 32. Last time, we said that . . . 1. In forgiving us, God did not deny ...read more
