    Our minds want a god we can control, but that’s not following Jesus

    Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man must undergo great suffering, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. 32He said all this quite openly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. 33But turning and ...read more

    Here’s Biblical algebra problem for you to solve. S+D+T= The mind of God and everything else. (I had to fill in for our youth pastor and this is what I preached.)

    As we consider the risks in following Christ, we need to acknowledge that He is the Christ headed for the cross; therefore, it will cost to follow Him, but the risk is worth it, because being with Christ is the only way to live!

    Jesus turns from silence about His achievements to open speaking about His death. He will not follow the ambition path, the pleasure path, or the easy spirituality path.

    You can admire Jesus, you can think well of Jesus, you can even love Jesus. But you cannot domesticate Him, you cannot tame Him, you cannot make Him sweet and nice and pretty. He is who He is and He says what He says, and sometimes it’s hard to take. In my experience, just about everybody out ...read more

    How Do I Take Up My Cross?

    based on 14 ratings
     | 12,163 views

    This sermon looks at both what it means, and also what it does not mean, for us to take up our cross for Jesus.

    Jesus said to his disciples and to the crowd following him, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (8:34). It’s hard for us to hear those words in the same way that those following Jesus heard it. The context is that Peter has just recognised that ...read more

    Though salvation is a free gift, Christ requires we deny ourselves, take up our Cross, and follow Him to be saved.

    Mark 8:34-38 (KJV) And when he had called the people [unto him] with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and ...read more
