    A Higher Power

    Is there a real, personal Satan and a kingdom of evil against which we are in spiritual combat?

    Today we are looking at a rather remarkable story of Jesus as he leaves Nazareth and goes to Capernaum. As is his habit, he goes to the synagogue to teach. Again the people are amazed. But Luke tells us that the reason the people are amazed at Capernaum is not because of his gracious words, but ...read more

    Luke 4: 31 – 44 What Is Going On Behind The Scene 31 Then He went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the Sabbaths. 32 And they were astonished at His teaching, for His word was with authority. 33 Now in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean ...read more

    All of "live" in either Nazareth or Capernaum.

    WHERE DO YOU LIVE? Luke 4:14-44 (God's Word translation) How many people have lived in the Tri-Cities your whole life? • How many of you live in the same house you got married in? • How many of you live in the same house you were born in? • I have figured out that I have lived in ...read more

    Nazareth, The City Jesus Grew Up In Series

    Jesus grew up in Nazareth and he was forever known as "Jesus of Nazareth". But what was it about this city that would have formed His teachings and what can we learn from this region? This was the 2nd in my series of lessons telling of my trip to Israel.

    (Slide of our tour bus) This is a picture of our tour bus. It’s a Mercedes Benz and it seemed that every tour company in Israel had one just like it. The bus was very comfortable and roomy. After spending a couple of nights at Bethlehem we traveled by this bus down to Masada. Masada ...read more

    Jesus Heals An Evil Spirit In The Church

    based on 8 ratings
     | 17,424 views

    It is naïve to think that an evil spirit can’t come into a church. Or invade your home, or think that you are immune to the devils attacks. This is the first example of Jesus' power to heal the spiritual afflictions that possessed the human soul.

    Jesus Heals an Evil Spirit in the Church “In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an impure spirit.” Luke 4:31-37 Intro: The city of Capernaum was on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee. It was a fishing village and along the major route about 200 miles from ...read more

    If Jesus Isn't In Church You Go Home With Your Demons

    We need to domesticate the word Demon to imply anything that desires to negatively control and influence us. Once we do that, so much of what Jesus does become incredibly applicable to us.

    Did you happen to bring a demon to church on Sunday or maybe just sit beside one? Hard to tell isn’t it, Botox is really screwing up my ability to spot them in a crowd. In Luke 4:31 we find Jesus is teaching in a Synagogue, and at some point a man interrupts and an evil spirit speaks to ...read more

    God's word is not dormant but alive and powerful to the pulling down of strongholds in our life.

    We live in a power-hungry culture. Whether it is religious, political, business, sports or entertainment people are hungry for power at whatever cost. The definition of power… A: general (1): ability to act or produce an effect (2): ability to get extra-base hits (like a power hitter) (3): ...read more

    In this sermon we examine Jesus' authority and various responses to his authority.

    Scripture Luke began writing about the public ministry of Jesus when Jesus was in the region of Galilee. The basic question that Luke asked and answered is: “Who is Jesus?” Luke first gave us a summary of Jesus’ ministry in Galilee (4:14-15). Next, he gave us an example of ...read more

    The Beatitudes are a beautiful picture of the character of Christ and of consecrated Christians. Why would such a lifestyle depicted in the first seven beatitudes provoke persecution rather than admiration and esteem?

    Intro In our study of the Beatitudes, we come to the eighth beatitude. It is recorded in Matthew 5:10: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”i The reward declared in this final beatitude is the same as declared in the first ...read more

    Right after the violently negative response at Nazareth, Jesus finds adoration at Capernaum. But that doesn't mean everything is good there.

    TALK OF THE TOWN: After rejection at Nazareth, Jesus finds adoration at Capernaum. - Luke 4:31-37 (especially vv. 32 and 36). - cf. vv. 24-30. THE PROBLEM: Two missions were in conflict. - Luke 4:32, 36, 38-39, 42-43. - What a great situation in many ways: a. They were amazed at His ...read more

    What is your favorite picture of Jesus? Most artists have portrayed Jesus as kind and gentle, or as God’s suffering servant. In the Gospel Lesson for today we have an example of a time when Jesus’ face most certainly didn’t look the way artists most often picture him.

    What is your favorite picture of Jesus? If you were to close your eyes and bring to mind your best loved drawing or painting of Jesus, which one would it be? Perhaps you would recall one the many images showing Jesus as the Good Shepherd. That has been a favorite among Christians for ...read more

    How "modern" evil triumphs so often, and how Jesus Christ defeats it in our day.

    Tuesday of 22nd week in Course When the prince of this world, defeated on Calvary, began the rear-guard action to destroy as many humans as possible before Jesus’s final return and triumph, he relied on the obvious means.

    In pretty much every age of the Church, things have looked so challenging that Catholics have prayed to God to make the Day of the Lord dawn.

    Tuesday of 22nd Week in Course 2019 St. Gregory the Great Early Christians knew themselves to be the heirs of the promise God made to the people of Israel, and they looked forward to “the day of the Lord” in which God would act to redeem His people and make every thing that is wrong to be right. ...read more
