    Prepare Ye the Way of the LORD.

    Less is more with God. It is the guiding force for the life of John the Baptist, but it should be the guiding force for our lives as well.

    Introduction For the last two weeks, I have been trying to show you that there is a Biblical principle that we need to have integrated into our life. And that principle is: Less is more with God. It is the guiding force for the life of John the Baptist, but it should be the guiding force for our ...read more

    Father Abraham

    The faith of Abraham made him righteous. Through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, our faith makes us righteous and leads us to trust in God and God's promises. We never know what these promises will mean for us, but we can know that God works them together for our good.

    Father Abraham had many sons And many sons had Father Abraham I am one of them And so are you So, let’s all praise the Lord I know our Sunday School kids know that song and perhaps some of you do as well.

    The fulness of time had come…. The “Hope of Nations” the “Messiah” was on His way. The announcement of that longed for event came in quite an unexpected way – the angel who had replaced Lucifer – the angel Gabriel - appeared to an old childless priest:

    August 12, 2023 One Sabbath, after church, a mom asked her little girl what the picture she had drawn was supposed to be. It looked like a bunch of brown scribbles surrounding some kind of big green thing. The little girl said, “Well, this is the wilderness, and that’s John the Cactus.” Today, ...read more

    The calling of John the Baptist is direct: Repent (turn) and receive. This appears to be tough challenge today … but it’s no different than it was in AD 29!!!

    Introduction / Recap - We know that Luke was a physician – helped Paul throughout his ministry -- He was most likely a Gentile from Antioch (Syria) addressing a Gentile audience - Examining the language of the text indicates that he was well educated -- EX: Familiar with Greek; well versed in ...read more
