    Was Mary’s annointing of Jesus an extravagant gift or a waste of money?

    For Love Of Jesus – John 12: 1 - 8 Intro: As I worked on this sermon, I heard in my head a song from a famous Broadway musical, “What I Did For Love” from The Chorus Line. These are the words sung by Diana and the Chorus: “Kiss today goodbye, the sweetness and the sorrow. Wish me luck, the ...read more

    Lessons From Martha, Lazarus And Mary

    Martha beavered away ’serving’, Lazarus (a former dead man) had a story to tell and Mary was extravagant in her worship. There are lessons for us in these three characters!

    On Maundy Thursday we hold meals around the town in homes and in Churches in honour of Jesus. Here was a dinner given in Jesus’ honour (12:2). It is only six days before the Passover (12:1) so it is the day before ‘Palm Sunday’ – the day when Jesus entered Jerusalem riding on a donkey, the day ...read more

    Preparing Jesus, Preparing For Jesus Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 3, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,351 views

    This chapter provides some real contrasts between real and trumped up worship, real belief and real betrayal. It is all a part of preparing Jesus for the cross and preparing us to receive him.

    John places Jesus at Ephraim, a village north of Jerusalem. Between the end of chapter 11 and here, Jesus travels back to Galilee, heals the ten lepers (Luke 17), talks to Zacchaeus (Luke 19) in Jericho on his way back to Bethany. It’s only six days until the Passover, and Jesus’ crucifixion. John ...read more

    God calls us to prepare for death by basing our life on the death of Jesus.

    Scripture Introduction We believe that God’s people need God’s word rightly applied in order to grow in faith and love and every grace. Thus the pastor has the two-fold task of exegesis and exposition. Exegesis is pulling God’s meaning out of a Bible text; exposition is explaining that ...read more

    We find Mary, who was the sister of Lazarus who would give the moon if it were hers to give. Mary gave extravagantly to the Lord.

    I get motivated when I hear songs about the extent people will go for love. I read this poetic expression of love recently. I would climb highest mountain for your love. I would swim the deepest ocean. Oh my love, I will come by and see you Saturday if it is not raining. Not much of a ...read more

    This look at Mary at the feet of Jesus will show how giving Jesus extreme worship doesn’t fit worldly thinking but it always fits Godly devotion

    I’m not sure exactly when they started – it may have been back before the time of Christ. I’m not sure how Mt. Dew seemed to become the drink associated with them. But I am relatively sure that we’ll have “extreme sports” in some form or another for the rest of history to come. Extreme sport: ...read more

    At the feast in Bethany, we can see a beautiful picture of the Church and a contrast between a worshiper and one who was selfish.

    * Jesus had been staying a Ephraim. * As the Passover approached, people began to wonder if Jesus would show up for the feast. * He shows up in Bethany at a feast to honor him, sponsored by the family of Lazarus, Mary and Martha. * In this setting, we get the most beautiful picture of a healthy, ...read more
