Physical Versus Spiritual Worlds? Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Jul 31, 2017

Was John's baptism from heaven or from human origin?

Keeping God's House Clean Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Jan 28, 2018

God won't live in a dirty house. You may live in one, but God won't. He is holy and He can't abide with the presence of sin.

INTRODUCTION Last week I suggested some hymn titles for the chronologically challenged. This week someone emailed me a funny list of pop song titles for aging Baby Boomers.

Palm Sunday: Appearances Can Be Different To Reality

Contributed by Steve Pearman on Apr 3, 2020

On Palm Sunday, things were not as they appeared

Things aren’t what they appear to be. And in life, some things are also not what they seem. For example, we can make assumptions about things and systems and people, and maybe we steer clear of something because it seems like something we don’t like. Maybe we look at a food or a venue or a type of ...read more

The Triumphal Entry Into Jerusalam

Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Mar 27, 2021

This is so well preached on that I would like to ask the question: Why did Jesus not tell the disciples the name of the owner/owners of the Donkey

EMB 28-03-2021 “On a donkey, you must be kidding!” Luke 21:28-44 Often there’s more to a story than meets the human eye. And our Gospel reading in Luke 21 is no exception.

Lent 2021 - Jesus Cleansing The Temple Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Feb 27, 2021

Lent 2021 - Jesus And The Barren Fig Tree Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 6, 2021

The account of Jesus and the unfruitful fig tree is one that surprisingly connects with the spiritual condition of the Jews in Jesus' time and with our spiritual conditions as well. May we bear much fruit for the Lord and bring glory to His Name!

Monday - Cursing Fig Trees And Cleansing Temples Series

Contributed by David Owens on Mar 7, 2022

On Monday of Jesus' final week of earthly life, he cursed the fig tree and cleansed the temple. Both activities symbolized God's judgment on the fruitless religion of Israel. As disciple of Christ, we must be faithful and fruitful, and not cause others to stumble.

The Week That Changed The World: The Day Jesus Cleaned House Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 3, 2021

The Lord Jesus arrived in Jerusalem hailed by the Jews as the Davidic king who would restore Israel. He arrived not for that purpose, but to fulfill Isaiah's prophecy of the Suffering Servant who restored all of HIs people back to God. The first step was to restore His house.

The final week of Jesus' public ministry had started with His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, being hailed as the rightful heir of David and the One who would finally drive out the hated Roman Gentile oppressors and restore the nation of Israel back to its former glory, or so the people ...read more
