    Don't crow about yourself or the Telltale Rooster will crow on you.

    The Telltale Rooster John 18:13-27 Introduction Last week we saw how Jesus was in total control of even His arrest.

    Outside the gate of the great house, it is growing cold. The winter winds are not quite over, and the first breezes of a promised spring have a zip to them. It would be nice to be in there, on the other side of the gate, where a fire is blazing and the workers are keeping warm. It would be good ...read more

    God decrees the death of his Son for the death his people deserve to die.

    Scripture Introduction One way to get at the significance of the story of redemption is to observe the contrasts which God builds into Bible events. For example, as the hours wind down to the crucifixion, we see the bent of the human heart: face-to-face with an innocent man, men plot his death ...read more

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 20, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,767 views

    We feel stuck in responsibilities, trying to maintain something just because we’ve inherited it, and are tempted to think of leadership as image. In a relationship to Christ, responsibility is transformed into freedom.

    Six groups or individuals think they can "handle" Jesus. Their reactions are similar to ours when we encounter the truth of Jesus Christ. Which group are you in?

    The time for Jesus teaching is over. Now is the time for others to act on the truth that He revealed. Six groups of individuals try to handle Jesus in one way or another. Chapter 18 is about the arrest and trial of Jesus. The time for talking has almost ended, the time for action is here. This is ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,658 views
