     | 1,307 views

    Get Jesus back to the center of attention of the leaders and people, so that the chaos may be calmed and we can get to the task at hand.

    Matthew 21 and the parable of the two sons, and tenants in the vineyard are really about "Yahweh" coming to His temple, His dwelling place. The Pharisees rejected His Messiahship and thus they ask: "By what authority...." Conclusion: Who do you say Jesus is?

    In Matthew 25:1-13, Jesus tells the Parable of the Ten Virgins, this message from the text asks the crucial question are we ready for Christ's return?

    The hymn we have just sung asks a pointed question. A question that I fear too often we dismiss in our daily lives. With all the concerns of living in the present moment - with all of the accompanying joys or frustrations - we fail to give much thought to the final moment. That moment when time, as ...read more

    This message explains why Jesus could not perform a great work in His hometown of Nazareth.

    Text: “He could not do any miracles there, except lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them” (Mark 6:5). If Jesus could not do any more miracles here in Nazareth He must be classified as a failure. Do you agree with that statement? If you or I try to write a book or a song and we are ...read more
