    The Raising Of Jairus' Daughter

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on May 28, 2024
     | 1,306 views

    The accounts of the woman with the issue of blood and the raising to Jairus daughter are interleaved. Why?

    The Raising of Jairus' Daughter Matthew 9:18–26 NKJV While He spoke these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped Him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay Your hand on her and she will live.” So Jesus arose and followed him, and so did His disciples. And suddenly, ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 27, 2022
     | 2,440 views

    We continue with the Study of the "I AMs" in the Gospel of John and this time we look at Christ as the Good Shepherd and the Door. He is the Door to the sheepfold and we will look at the role of the shepherd in the Middle East. Are you feeding in God's pasture?

    “I AM THE DOOR OF THE SHEEP - I AM THE DOOR” - PRESENTATION IN THE “I AM SERIES OF JOHN’S GOSPEL” PART 1 [A]. THE DOOR OF THE SHEEP In this particular study of the I AM series, we come to chapter 10 of John where we find two of these great I AMs. One will be the Door and the other is the Good ...read more

    An insight into the patient persistence of the Lord in calling people to live godly.

    SIN BY ANY OTHER NAME Scripture: John 8:1-11 and Revelation 3:20 You’ve probably heard the saying, “A rose by any other name would still smell sweet.” Many things have a core-trait that isn’t changed when the name is changed. A rose could be called a skip but it would still smell sweet. Sin, on ...read more

    “I have sinned,” cried the prodigal. For him those words did not come easily. It seems they never do. In fact as far as the biblical record is concerned, the confession “I have sinned” occurs only seven times in the English Bible. And even in these few ca

    Doing What He Asks Of Us

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Apr 5, 2007
     | 1,991 views

    A short but challenging homily. The disciples were sent to go and get a donkey for Jesus. How do we respond when Jesus asks things of us?

    I have some Christian friends who were convinced about 2 years ago that God was asking them to buy their local pub and to continue to run it as a pub with food and alcohol being served. (At this point those of you who are anti alcohol – for whatever reason - may already be feeling sceptical, but ...read more

    How May We Know That God Exists?

     | 3,124 views

    Spiritual struggles like Nathan’s are common. Therefore, before we talk to people about being in right relationship with God, we may need to address their core beliefs about His existence and offer reassurance about the reasonableness of belief. Indeed,

    After his grandmother’s funeral, 15 year-old Nathan really started thinking about God. Because his grandmother had been a faithful Christian, the minister spoke about her eternal rewards. But talk of heaven and the afterlife caused Nathan to wonder, “How do we really know there’s a God and an ...read more

    Part 2 - Genesis 20:1-18 - Scanning For A Trojan Horse! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Aug 14, 2010
    based on 32 ratings
     | 5,312 views

    Genesis 20 in my Bible teaches me THAT BELIEVERS HAVE TROJAN HORSES. I knew that already from other parts of the Bible. Satan is the original HACKER and Adam and Eve fell for the Trojan Horse, installing unwanted data into the system.

    Part 2 - Genesis 20:1-18 - SCANNING FOR A TROJAN HORSE! TROJAN HORSE! It appears innocent enough, but it is a harmful piece of software that looks legitimate. It tricks people into loading the wrong things into their systems. It gives a hacker access to cause damage. Unless you have a good ...read more

    Lessons In Apologetics #4: Pragmaticism & Combinationalism

    The next theory of truth and religious knowledge is pragmatism. Developed initially by Charles Sander Pierce and expanded by William James, pragmatism is the theory that truth is not determined by what one thinks, feels, or discovers but rather by what works. Christians may instinctively recoil ...read more

    The Lord Jesus shows how to overcome temptations before they derail, degrade and disappoint us.

    Three Temptations for Three Needs Overcome By Three Answers from Jesus (Matt. 4:1-11) Most people forget that it is not a sin to be tempted but to yield to temptations. Remember temptations are merely opportunities to sin, but God always provides a way of escape so that we can handle any ...read more

    A Turning Point In The Ministry Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 2, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,841 views

    When we set out with Jesus, we can hardly begin to understand what paths He might lead us down to get to our destination. It is not always what we think, but we must implicitly trust Him.

    A TURNING POINT IN THE MINISTRY OF JESUS. Luke 9:51-62. “When the days were being fulfilled for the receiving up of Jesus, He set his face like a flint to go to Jerusalem” (LUKE 9:51). There is a sense of divine destiny about this statement, yet what does it mean? At first we are reminded of ...read more

    Prophesying In The Camp

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 6, 2014
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,251 views

    The Sovereign Holy Spirit does not always operate where, when, how, with what, or with whom we may expect. Such things are not open to debate.

    PROPHESYING IN THE CAMP. Numbers 11:4-6, Numbers 11:10-16, Numbers 11:24-29. Chips (French Fries) for tea every day seemed a good idea for a Ship’s Company of 180 Cadets in their teens. But chips every day??? We rebelled - and our chips were replaced by some fluffy artificial instant mashed ...read more

    A look at some of the major reasons that God doesn't always answer our prayers when we want Him to.

    A Nagging Question: Why does God make us wait? - Genesis 15:1-3. The questions linger in our minds. Even someone with as great a faith as Abraham struggled with these questions. I want to look at some of the main reasons that He makes us wait. I realize this is not as good as telling you that ...read more
