    Entrusting Your Life Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Oct 8, 2007
    based on 54 ratings
     | 21,720 views

    Jesus at times taught with concepts that are not obvious so that we might grapple with His thought. This grappling causes us to meditate & stuggle with His concepts which eventually can bring blessed understanding.

    JOHN 2: 18-25 The ENTRUSTING OF YOUR LIFE The commotion caused by Jesus and the quick report of His unheard of action brought the authorities down on Him. They demand some proof of His right to challenge the existing procedure of worship. John is not concerned with the ...read more

    The first thing Jesus did after His triumphal entry into Jerusalem was to clean house. He cleanses the Temple of it’s sinfulness. What can this teach us about the need for purity and holiness in our churches and our personal lives?

    OPEN: About 50 years ago there was a great preacher in the Washington D.C. area named Peter Marshall. I once read one of his sermons and found the following description of the scene we just read about in Matthew: “It is early morning, but already the temple court is a bedlam of activity and noise. ...read more

    Sermon compares Jesus’ act of cleansing the Temple with the way He feels about many of our churches.

    Introduction: Three weeks ago we looked at the Compassion of Christ. We saw how Jesus showed compassion to a Widow who had lost her son, a man who was suffering from leprosy, and over 4000 people who were hot, tired and hungry. This morning I want us to look at a passage of Scripture that deals ...read more

    Through his cleansing of the temple, Jesus reveals that we must not stand in the way of those who come to worship God.

    Introduction: Have you ever wanted – even needed – something but you couldn’t get it. It was right there in front of you. It was within your reach. But you couldn’t get it. It was in front of you, you wanted it and yet something or someone prevented you from having what you wanted. We’ve all ...read more

    Jesus purificó el templo de vendedores para dar paso a los que querían adorar. Muchas veces nosotros tenemos obstáculos para venir a Dios, pero Jesús quita todo impedimento.

    The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. Making a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple, both the shee

    We’re in John chapter 2 today, following the Lentern pattern of jumping around into different sections of the Gospels and landing upon passages that are appropriately sombre and challenging. And we’ve landed on a dousie this week - a passage that contains not one but two rather unique and entirely ...read more

    The Horror Of Violence Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 7, 2009
     | 3,890 views

    Jesus was, in fact, nonviolent, even when he used force to expel the merchants who desecrated the Temple. Violence is incompatible with human development.

    Feast of Dedication of St. John Lateran November 9, 2009 Let’s confront a misconception about today’s Gospel, and that has to do with Jesus and violence. What Jesus did to the moneychangers and pigeon salesmen who had coopted the Court of the Gentiles was to clean them out. He used force to ...read more

    Christ’s Authority and His pardon

    I would recommend you either believe God completely, or else not to believe at all. Believe this book of God, every letter of it, or else reject it. There is no logical standing place between the two. Be satisfied with nothing less than a faith that swims in the deeps of divine revelation; a faith ...read more

    Problems may be encountered when the truth is told

    People often tell what we call white lies because everyone wants to be liked and accepted. Most people are afraid that if they point out the shortcomings of others to them, they’ll see them as enemies and not friends. Constructive criticism can be very helpful to people who have a desire to better ...read more

     | 8,613 views

    Jesus has not changed in 2,000 years. He is still passionate about His temple. The temple of God is no longer a building, it is His people. God no longer dwells in a temple made by hands, He lives in us, and His passion, His zeal is the same today as it w

    Jesus: the Great Purifier (John 2:12-25) “I’m Sarah, I’m sixteen; Last night I failed. I prayed for more strength, So why did I yield? He said he loved me, Brought me flowers and all; Then he took me upstairs And caused me to fall. I feel so ashamed, So dirty inside. He’s taken my heart; Now I ...read more

    What’s a Praise Chorus? An old farmer went to the city one weekend and attended the big city church. When he returned home his wife asked him how it was. “Well,” said the farmer, “it was good. But they did something different. They sang praise choruses instead of hymns.” “Praise choruses?” ...read more

    What shall the Church’s response be to the disaster of 2008?

    Dedication of St. John Lateran Sunday, Nov 9 2008 In case this feast is somewhat confusing, let me just say that it has nothing to do with bricks and mortar. It has to do with being the Church.

    Discipline isn’t fun. It isn’t fun to receive it and it isn’t fun to give it out. But the fact is that discipline is necessary. Are you in need of a cleansing today? How will you react when it comes?

    “This is going to hurt me more than it hurts you.” How many of you have ever used that line on your kids? I remember when I got that line used on me. I didn’t believe it for one minute. As a matter of fact, I didn’t believe it until I had my own kids and used that line on them. Don’t you hate ...read more

     | 4,972 views

    The important thing is not to have just one image of Jesus. This would hardly do him justice. It would be the same as our parents showing their friend only one photograph of us.
