    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 25, 2014
     | 10,947 views

    It's a curious thing: Jesus regularly instructed people to keep quiet about the miracle He'd done for them. This passage provides insight into why Jesus did that.

    A LINGERING QUESTION: Why did Jesus tell people to stay quiet about the miracles? - Matthew 9:31. - This is something that happens repeatedly throughout the gospels: Jesus does a miracle and then instructs the healed not to share what happened. - It’s hard to understand: wouldn’t you ...read more

    What Is The Mistake That Leads Toward The Unforgiveable Sin?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 5, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,689 views

    A look at the unforgiveable sin. I think the distinction that I share about why criticism of Jesus is acceptable but of the Holy Spirit is not will be helpful in getting to the heart of what Jesus is trying to convey.

    WHAT IS THE "UNFORGIVEABLE SIN" EXACTLY? It seems to be seeing consistently clear evidence of the Spirit’s movement and attributing it to Satan. - Luke 12:10. - The passage in Luke presents the shortest version of this saying in the gospels. The versions in Matthew 12:22-32 and Mark ...read more

    Why Did Jesus Say He’s Not A Judge?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 18, 2014
     | 3,407 views

    A look at two short verses where Jesus says He wasn't appointed a judge. Why did He say that? This leads us to a larger discussion of the dangers of coming to Jesus with a pre-existing agenda.

    A CONFUSING STATEMENT: Why does Jesus say He’s not a judge? - Luke 12:13. - This is an odd statement by Jesus. Why does He say that He was not appointed a judge between them? - It’s important to read the full sentence. Jesus doesn’t say, “I am not a judge” or ...read more

    A look at the two main places we should invest our money if we want to be "rich toward God" (Luke 12:21).

    WHERE DO I PUT THE MONEY? Being “rich toward God” seems a little obscure because you can’t mail God a hundred bucks. - Luke 12:21. - Matthew 6:20; Luke 19:13. - The investment sites that give you all the resources to figure out where to invest – I don’t have time ...read more

WHAT EXACTLY ...read more
