Live For Today And Die Forever

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Feb 11, 2020

Sounds pretty harsh, right? Jesus said the very same thing on four different occasions and it is recorded six different times in the Gospels. What can we do about it?

If We Ever Needed To See God

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Feb 7, 2021

We face trying times. This is no time to be afraid or be ashamed. But we cannot do this in ourselves. We need to see a vision of God.

When We Really Need to See God Mark 9:2-9 Transfiguration Sunday comes every year just before Ash Wednesday. There are only three Gospel texts which tell about the Transfiguration, so it becomes a challenge to repeat a story we have heard so many times. The accounts are quite similar. Luke adds ...read more

"the God We Need"

Contributed by Ken Sauer on Feb 22, 2021

What it means to take up our cross and follow Christ.

“The God We Need” Mark 8:27-38 Peter gets the title right, but he doesn’t seem to understand what that title means. And so, when Jesus starts to talk NOT about the road to glory but instead the one that leads to the Cross, Peter rebukes Him…and then Jesus rebukes Peter right back. Which might ...read more

"Jesus, The Exclusive Savior”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Feb 24, 2021

The consensus- that some things were right others wrong is now replaced by a new "trinity": worship tolerance, celebrate diversity, praise pluralism, equity not equality. Woe to the man who dares speak against the New Trinity. A story: confession, a fable. John Stott, quote.

In Jesus Holy Name Lent II February 28, 2021 Text: Mark 8:27,29 Redeemer “Jesus, The Exclusive Savior” We live in a “postmodern” age. If that term is new to you, it simply means that we live in an age in which ...read more

A Declaration And A Rebuke Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 31, 2021

Jesus has been active for over two years, and His disciples have been there to witness His teaching and miracles. He asks them a question that we all need to answer: "Who do men say that I am?". Your answer determines your eternal destiny.

So far in reading about the life and ministry of the Lord Jesus, we see that He has been active for two years or more, preaching the Word, teaching the people, performing miracles of healing, deliverance from demons, feeding crowds, stilling storms, and showing His mastery over the elements by ...read more

A Fresh Look At The Church Of Jesus Christ

Potholes Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015

We’ve all experienced potholes in the road of life that either slow us down, delay our journey or sometimes totally disrupt it. Potholes are anything in life that keep us from moving forward.

Potholes Mark 8:27-35 Bumpy streets are so commonplace in New Orleans that residents have taken some extreme measures to draw attention to particularly bothersome potholes. There was the birthday party in New Orleans East for a 5-foot-wide pothole on Cannes Street. They had cake, balloons and a ...read more

Roadwork Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015

When you think of it, roadwork is a pretty good analogy of the journey of faith. God accepts us where we are but wants us to become like his Son. For most of us, that means there’s serious roadwork to do.

Road Work Mark 8:34-38 My wife and I used to live Uptown on Octavia Street between Constance and Laurel just two blocks from Tchoupitoulas. At that time, the Port of Orleans was redoing Tchoupitoulas. When the street was dug up, they found that many of the feeder drainage pipes from the ...read more

The Road Less Traveled Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Aug 9, 2019

In order to follow Jesus, we must take the same road that He took. In Mark 8:27-38, we see who Jesus is and what it means to follow Him on the ``Road Less Traveled``. In this we see: 1) The Disciple's Confession (Mark 8:27-33) and 2) The Disciple's Lifestyle (Mark 8:34-38)

Mark 8:27-33 [27] And Jesus went on with his disciples to the villages of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that I am?" [28] And they told him, "John the Baptist; and others say, Elijah; and others, one of the prophets." [29] And he ...read more

Eyes To See And Ears To Hear

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jul 18, 2021

In a bible reading plan I'm involved in Mark 8 was among the readings this week. In vs. 18 Jesus asks his disciples if they have eyes but fail to see and ears but fail to hear. Let's look at Mark 8 and see what we come away with.

EYES TO SEE AND EARS TO HEAR Mark 8:1-33 I've been going through an online bible reading plan with someone where we read the passages of the day and comment accordingly.

I, Too, Must Die!

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 10, 2017

In this Scripture Jesus confirms that He IS the Christ, the He must die and that He will rise again. Also in this Scripture we see that we must believe Jesus is the Christ, that we must die and be raised; raised to eternal life or eternal death.

Mark 8:27-38 (Please open your Bibles so you can read along) Today we will start following Jesus down the road to the cross and then finally to the resurrection. This, of course, is not something we speak about only at this time of year. This great act of mercy and salvation is the pivotal event ...read more
