The King Of Rejection

Contributed by Gordan Runyan on Aug 23, 2002

With a nod to John Knox, this is about tyranny; what it is, why it is, how we escape it (including the tyranny of sin).

Webster’s dictionary defines “tyranny” as arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power. We don’t use the word “tyranny” a lot in our own day. We don’t routinely hear people in positions over us referred to as tyrants. (They may in fact be tyrants, but we don’t use the word.) But the word “tyranny” ...read more

The Coming Of The King Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 22, 2006

Jesus exposes real emotions as he comes to Jerusalem for the last time. It tells a lot about his attitude towards the lost, and towards our hearts as well.

Jesus has just given a long story about a man who goes to become a king and what his servants do while he is gone. It has a lot of spiritual application, but it is very interesting considering what happens next. In the parable Jesus talks about a king that goes to receive his kingdom but the people ...read more
