    From the Gospel according to St Luke, chapter 17 verses 11-19

    Grace, mercy and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Sickness, diseases, health.

    Flesh And Spirit And Cleverness For The Gospel

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 7, 2013
     | 5,370 views

    We must listen to the Spirit of God rather than our weak minds and wills so that we can bear the fruits of the Spirit and with cleverness spread God's kingdom.

    Today’s Scripture readings offer a number of challenges and difficulties to the Christian. On the face of it, it appears that Jesus is applauding a dishonest steward’s actions in cheating his employer. Worse, He seems to be telling His disciples that the ends justify the means. Of ...read more

    I have read many books on prayer including all E M Bounds books on the topic. Recently I read a book called “Unrelenting Prayer” by a man called Bob Sorge. Bob Sorge was a pastor and worship leader, who several years ago, suffered an accident to his throat. Can you think of anything ...read more

    Our attitude toward money & how we use it is a barometer of our spiritual state. It reveals whether we are foolishly thinking only of the present or astutely looking to eternity. What is the purpose of money anyway?

    LUKE 16: 1-13 [PARABLES IN LUKE] TRUE RICHES [Matthew 6:25-34] Some athletes, entertainers and CEOs receive astronomical salaries. They take all they can get and use it for their own personal interests. They seem to set an example for our culture which spends so much to entertain ...read more

    Jesus told the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus to show that being rich should not be equated with being righteous. The rich man had everything he wanted. But he didn't have what would get him to heaven.

    LUKE 16: 19-31 [PARABLES IN LUKE] THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS [John 11:45-53; 12:10-11] After challenging the pharisees and scribes Jesus told the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus to show that being rich should not be equated with being righteous.

    Some thoughts on a challenging text.

    THE UNJUST STEWARD. Luke 16:1-9. For centuries interpreters have been more than a little puzzled, perplexed and disturbed by the parable of the unjust steward, at the beginning of Luke 16. The Emperor Julian, otherwise known as Julian the Apostate, even tried to use this parable to show that ...read more

    Death is the great leveler. Not all rich men go to hell, nor do all poor men go to heaven. It was how Lazarus lived his life before God, and how the rich man squandered his opportunities, that determined their differing destinies.

    THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS. Luke 16:19-31. It was against the Pharisees who were lovers of money that Jesus spoke the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. It is a sad story, which shows two men in quite different lifestyles in this life, and the fate of each of them in the life to come. 1. The ...read more

    "I would rather see a sermon than to hear one any day: I'd rather one should walk with me than merely tell the way. Beloved, You may be the only Sermon that your neighbor ever Sees!

    Today's Gospel text can be difficult to understand.

    If we listen to the word of God and trust in His promises, we will have a happy, fruitful life even if everything around us is going to pieces.

    Thursday of the 2nd Week in Lent 2019 Karma or Compassion? Only St. Luke among the four Gospel writers records this story of the rich man and the poor beggar, Lazarus.
