    Jesus calls us to love even our enemies. Thus we imitate the perfect love of the Father, and the perfect example of the Son.

The first half tells of Jesus’ presentation to the people as an authoritative teacher (Mark 1:21-22), who also happened to use healing (or more ...read more

    An Easter sermonette, one of eight that will delivered on Good Friday at Colombo Central Corps, Sri Lanka. Short for it is to be translated, in what is a three hour service.

    How many Fridays in a year? Yes but only one is good. Good because of God's goodness not mans.
