    John the Baptist is one person who recognized the person to whom he was answerable. He only lived for God’s sake!

    How Jesus Conducted Funerals

    The example of the Master in being a comfort to people who have suffered loss.

    Actually, Jesus never had to conduct a funeral. No one ever died or stayed dead in His immediate presence. That’s because He is the resurrection and the life! (John 11:25) He did, however, come to the aid of those in sorrow over death, and by so doing left a great example for those of us who ...read more

    In some ways, what was a parable for them, becomes for us an historical lesson. We look back to see that wisdom was indeed exonerated by a growing kingdom that could not have been through force or the means of men. And we see that when we pout and stam

    THIS GENERATION Luke 7: 31-35 To what then can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?

     | 3,809 views

    The Lord Jesus was the Master in approaching people at the point of their need. He knew how to move from a person’s felt need to their perceived need to their human need as a gateway to their spiritual need.

    Addressing the Proud Person as Jesus Would (Luke 7:30-50) Illustration:The pride of your heart has deceived you. --Obadiah 1:3.

    4 of 5 messages. This message addresses the challenge of doubt and how it can contribute to faith.

    I have questioned many things about our faith and the things of God. I am a skeptic. I admit it. Whenever I hear about someone who is suffering from cancer miraculously discovering his or her cancer is gone, I wonder if it can be true. I doubt. I read reports about God mysteriously working in ...read more

    John wants to know whether Jesus is the Messiah, because it doesn’t seem that the gospel he’s proclaiming is good news. But it is!

    I guess everyone has some idea what we mean when we talk about the gospel. But I wonder what your preferred translation of that word would be. Is Good News the correct translation do you think? Is the gospel necessarily good news? You may never have thought about that question, but if you do ...read more
