    A look at the religious groups of Jesus day and how they were affected by their culture (as might be): 1. Zealots 2.Phariasees 3. Saduccees 4. Scribes 5. Herodians 6. Essenes

    How would you like it if someone spit on you? In our cultural setting it would be a sign of disrespect, an attempt to shame and humiliate a person. But for some cultures, it has an entirely different meaning. I am reading a wonderful book entitled Christianity Rediscovered. It is written by a ...read more

    The greatest commandment is to love God, and the second is to love people. What does it mean to truly love God with all our heart?

    It is not easy to sum up all the commandments that govern life in one or two sentences, but Jesus did it. It is amazing! Think about it. If you get these commands right, you’ll get the rest right. Jesus says (in Matthew’s version), “All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” ...read more

    When the time runs out in the life of an individual, “coming close” to the kingdom of God leads to far more than disappointment...it ends in eternal separation from God.

Jesus answered him, "The first of all the commandments is: ’Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, ...read more

Last time they demanded that He prove His authority (He wouldn’t because they wouldn’t admit where John the Baptist got his authority) and then they tried to trap Him ...read more
