    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 29, 2012
     | 6,122 views

    The condition of your heart is what determines your status with God, not the rituals and traditions you follow.

    Introduction Have you ever asked someone a question and found you had touched a raw nerve? The other person swells up with emotion and then unleashes a tirade. “I’ve had enough of people asking me…” “You want to know my opinion? I’ll be glad to give you my ...read more

  • A Harsh Indictment Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 30, 2014
     | 4,594 views

    Living for Christ means that we live FOR Him, in everything we do. Sitting in judgment of others, hoping to prove ourselves superior, is SINFUL, and is exactly what the Pharisees thought they could do to Jesus ... and He calls them on it.

    A Harsh Indictment Mark 7:1-7, Isaiah 29:13, Joshua 24:15 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” ...read more

    Because we want others to approve of us, we feel a pressure to displace some of God’s commands with peer group rules or trends.

    The Danger of Displacement (Mark 7:1-13) 1. One of my favorite Jewish jokes (I have told before) is the following: 2. A Jewish congregation was arguing over whether one should stand or sit during the Shema Yisrael. Half of the congregation said one should sit, the other half insisted one should ...read more

  • Scripture Or Tradition

     | 2,131 views

    When is it time to challenge church leadership as to whether or not they are following the Scripture? The last was 1517 and we called that the Reformation. It is time for another Reformation.

    Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 7:1-13 For 2000 years, the church has been creating ordinances for the people of God to follow. Many of these ordinances are not based on biblical Scripture but on the theological beliefs developed over the centuries. For example, in the Catholic Church, a priest ...read more

  • Defilement Comes From Within Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 22, 2021
     | 3,765 views

    It is not the food you eat or religious observation you practice that enables you to claim that you are right with God. Your attitude, behavior, and response to His commands show whether or not your life is defiled before Him.

    Worship is supposed to come from a grateful heart and mind, focused on how God's mercy and grace has taken us off of the road to hell and by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on our behalf, placed us on the narrow road leading to eternal life. Our submission to Him as Lord and Savior, ...read more

    God’s desire is for us to be builders of people (our family, fellow church members, co-workers, spouse, and kids). How can we do this? Let’s look at the negative example of the Pharisees and turn it into some positive principles.

    How to Be a Builder (not a Bulldozer) Mark 7:1-23 Introduction: 1. At the time of Jesus’ ministry to Israel, the Pharisees and scribes were the religious leaders who knew about the true God, knew the Scriptures, and knew about the prophecies of a coming Christ. 2. They didn’t appear ...read more

  • God At The Market Place

    Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Nov 1, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,291 views

    A perspective on Mark 7: 1-23. When a trivial matter becomes a big issue more than likely we are following the ‘traditions of men’. Our focus therefore is on the wrong thing because we have forgotten God and do not have God’s love in our hearts.

    Mark 7: 1-23 God At The Market Place The closing of chapter 6 is also the introduction to chapter 7 and our Gospel text. In which Jesus and his disciples have crossed Lake Galilee to the land at Gennesaret on the north-western bank of the lake. Gennesaret was a small, but a very fertile plain rich ...read more

     | 13,699 views

    Sometimes I feel more like a volunteer fire fighter than a pastor. We spend much of our time outing unnecessary fires created by gossip. Thank You Robert Mckenzie from "Good Shepherd Baptist Church" for the original messsag

    We used to have an award that we gave out each month at the VW dealer, where I worked as shop foreman. It was called the “Crybaby” award and it was a baby’s pacifier mounted on a piece of wood. We gave it to the technician that griped and complained the most, each month. ...read more
