We need to live by the wisdom of the Jerusalem council. Never make if difficult for anyone turning to the Lord. The death burial and resurrection of Jesus is available as a free gift to all who put their faith in Christ.
The background to the sermons preached at the Jerusalem council. We read in acts chapter 6 verse 7 that the word of God was spreading and the number of disciples increased rapidly and that a large number of priests became obedient to the faith. So we realize as we move on through the book of Acts ...read more

1 Cor 12:25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. For those who applaud 81 churches plus house groups in a town of 30K and a new one every six months or think we should have a buffet of churches to pick from ...read more

Jesus tells us to love our enemies. This is not an easy thing to do, but we are called to do it. This is a revamp of a 1996 sermon I did.
INTRODUCTION Kid’s views on Love: What do most people do on a date? • On the first date they tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.
