    In our journey through life we can learn much from the wise men's journey to see the Christ newly born King of the Jews.

    there is one more person hiding in this Christmas story. – Luke does not mention him directly. We do not know his name either, yet we can see him there quite clearly. He is a well-known person, standing in the background of this sentence: “There was no ro

    We often have a feeling that the people we know, or the events we experience on a regular basis cannot surprise us with anything new and therefore they cannot enrich our lives anymore.

    In this lesson, I would like to suggest some answers you might give to the question, "If God became a man, what kind of man would he be?"

    Introduction One of the great assertions at Christmas is that Jesus is not only fully man but that he is also fully God. The New Testament has a number of statements affirming the deity of Jesus. For example: • John 1:1 – “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with ...read more

    Are your steps being ordered by the Lord? Do you delight in the will and way of the Lord for your life? Have you fallen? Have you risen back up to get back in the fight? Where does that place you?

    Intro: Psalm 37 contains a reference to three particular men. In v.16 we find “a righteous man,” in v.23 we find “a good man,” and in v.37 we find “the perfect man.” If we were to apply this from a NT viewpoint, we might say that the “righteous man” ...read more

    As Jesus ministered to the blind man, He led Him to faith in Him. Spiritually the Lord leads us to the place where we realize our need and respond to Him by faith unto salvation.

    The Blind Man at Bethsaida Mark 8: 22-26 Today we find Jesus has returned to Bethsaida, a town near His home-base in Capernaum.

    One cannot understand and preach the gospel concretely enough.
