     | 5,006 views

    Throughout history there is always been opposition to Christianity, this sermon deals with some of the ways we can respond to such opposition

    49“I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50But I have a baptism to undergo, and what constraint I am under until it is completed! 51Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. 52From now on there will be five in one family ...read more

    Contributed by David Smith on Oct 17, 2007
    based on 11 ratings
     | 4,715 views

    It’s the age-old theological question - why do bad things happen to good people? Jesus, as ever, doesn’t give us the response we expect.

    They say that philosophy deals with two sorts of questions: * Questions to which everybody knows the answer (eg. Do I really exist?). * Questions to which nobody knows the answer (eg. Why do I exist?). Religious teachers tend to deal the same sorts of questions, perhaps particularly questions ...read more

    This is a lesson about terrorists and falling towers. Everybody still talks about that day; it was a day of tragedy and injustice. People were going about their business when they were suddenly and brutally killed.

    11-18-04 Why Do Good People Suffer? Luke 13:1-13:9 INTRODUCTION Today, I want to speak to you on “Why Do Good People Suffer?” I’ve taught on suffering before. In fact, one lady told me, “Preacher, I never knew what suffering was until I heard you preach. Now I know.” Some preaching and ...read more

    The Holy Spirit Of Witness And Division Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 21, 2018
     | 3,988 views

    The Spirit empowers, but the Spirit also divides. Because the Holy Spirit causes us to change our lives, and to summon our family and friends to the Christian way of life, conflict often emerges in relationships.

    Thursday of the 29th Week in Course 2018 The phrase, “fire that Our Lord came to cast down upon the earth” is reminiscent of an encounter Jesus had in his earthly life with James and John, sons of Zebedee. Some town had refused hospitality to Jesus and the disciples, so those two asked Jesus for ...read more

    Can We Win More People By Softening The Gospel?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 12, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,381 views

    A study of Jesus' teaching that He did not come to bring peace to the earth and how we need to "fire it up" instead of "watering it down."

    CAN WE WIN MORE PEOPLE BY SOFTENING THE GOSPEL? The best plan is not to “water it down” but “fire it up.” - Luke 12:49. - Fire is referred to in this verse. There is a sense in which the truth of Christ is going to bring fire to the earth. - Fire burns down what already exists. - The fire ...read more

    When Jesus Is The Adversary

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 19, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,574 views

    A look at a challenging passage that indicates that when we refuse Jesus as Savior He will become our Adversary at judgment.

    - These verses seem out of place. Why would Jesus end what He was saying here with talk about going to court? It doesn’t really seem to have much to do with the points He’s just made. - When that happens (and it happens at multiple places in the gospels), the temptation is to either presume that ...read more

    Luke 13:1-9, 31-35 “Fruitlessness” INTRODUCTION Two teenagers were driving along a mountain road near Flagstaff. As some of us have a tendency to do, they were going rather fast—about 75 miles per hour. The driver lost control of the truck. The truck crashed through the ...read more

    Lent 2013 Week 3 Series

    God, in His gracious mercy, gives us warnings of the need for repentance. In this case He does it through His Son, Jesus, using two accounts of untimely death and applying them to the reality of eternity which we all face.

    This is the third week of the Lenten season and in the Scripture we are about to look at we see how Jesus responded when He was confronted with the news of some untimely deaths. Some died at the hands of an evil man and others died because of a construction accident. Now, you may have noticed on ...read more
