    Peace & Fire

    Contributed by Dan Cormie on Aug 15, 2010
     | 5,764 views

    In Luke 12 Jesus asks His disciples if they think He came to bring peace on earth and then - without giving them a chance to respond - He makes; what to me seems like a shocking statement, “No, I tell you, but division.”

    Dakota Community Church Revised Common Lectionary August 15, 2010 Peace & Fire Quick background notes: A.) This month’s book of the month is “Why Johnny Can’t Preach” by T.

    What do we mean when we pray "deliver us from evil"?

    People have always been divided about Jesus. I have known folks who are so “sold-out” to Jesus they drive everybody else crazy. They come across like the butcher who wanted to be a good soul-winner, so he took some training in personal evangelism and memorized all the scriptures and ...read more

    Preparing for the coming crisis as set forth in Luke 12:49-59 teaches us to settle our eternal destiny before it is too late.

    Scripture This is the second Sunday of Advent. Advent is the season of the Christian year in which we remember the first coming of Jesus and also anticipate the second coming of Jesus.

     | 5,331 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

    Peace is central to Christmas. Jesus came to heal the age-old fracture and bring us peace with God and he's the only one who can.

    What does Christmas mean to you? What do you like best about Christmas? Spending time with family and friends? Christmas trees? Turkey roasts? Christmas puddings and brandy butter? Stockings?

    Why is it important to use discernment.

    Discerning the Times Luke 12:49-56 The Revised Common Lectionary sometimes has a very awkward passage selection. In this case, the passage begins in the middle of a discourse by Jesus.

    Many people think of Jesus being in the words of Charles' Wesley's carol. But he wasn't. He came to do the Father's will even if it ruffled feathers. And he may even set Father against Son, as I experienced myself
