    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 10, 2025
     | 152 views

    And it was through the faith of the virgin Mary of Nazareth and the birth of Her Son that the promises of Isaiah came to life in the Church Jesus left after His resurrection and ascension.

    Third Sunday of Advent 2025 Today we sing psalm 146, the first of the five alleluia psalms which act as a final movement to the whole book of psalms. It’s easy to hear the poetry of this hymn, even in English: “Adonai frees imprisoned; Adonai opens closed-eyes; Adonai lifts the prostrate; Adonai ...read more

    Expectations – General And Specific – Great And Small Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 4,142 views

    Expectations keep us hoping if they are good, and fearful if they are bad. There are many examples in the bible of expectations but I have selected only a few, then we look at Christian expectations. Even cricket is touched on.

    EXPECTATIONS – GENERAL AND SPECIFIC – GREAT AND SMALL I wonder how many are familiar with the novel “Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens. Pip the orphan boy relates his story that is based around what expectations wait for him, surprises, incorrect assumptions, tragedy and a lot more. Well as ...read more

    The Wicked Generation

    John the Baptizer wasted no time in telling Herod that it was wrong for him to have his brother Phillip’s wife saying that it was not lawful. John went to prison for being the prophet God called him to be and not the puppet that Herod wanted him to be.

    THE WICKED GENERATION Text: Matthew 11:1 – 19, 25- 30 N. T. Wright once said that “… wicked people don’t like a message of judgment because they think the message is aimed at them, (and rightly so) while good people don’t like a message of mercy because they think (wrongly) that ...read more

    It is just these types of lonely, painful moments that Jesus wants to redeem. John the Baptist got ministered to in prison by Jesus. He answered John’s question and complimented him to others.

    A bedraggled little man once walked the streets of an Italian town 100 years ago. Many of the townspeople saw his pallid face, often tearful, as he stumbled along the cobblestone streets and narrow alleys. One day a kind soul, witnessing the man’s misery, came up to him, hoping to lift his sad ...read more

    Transition And Testimony (Matthew 11:1-30)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 14, 2025
     | 459 views

    Our commentary on Matthew continues with Jesus' testimony about the ministry of John the Baptist and the promise of judgment upon the unbelieving cities who witnessed HIs work yet did not repent.

    Matthew 11 begins with what is referred to as a "transitional" passage (v.1). While the disciples were going around the countryside doing the work that Jesus had commissioned, He continued to preach in the cities in Galilee. Verses 2-3 describe how John the Baptist had been thrown into ...read more

    Expectations & Evidence

    Yeshua was saying, “Don’t be upset because I’m not what you expected. You’ve got my credentials. Now trust me for the rest of it.”

    Zach was tired. He had been coming down to Tiberias every week for almost two months, bringing news and food to John in prison, and it looked like he’d probably be doing it for the rest of the year. Nothing had changed. After Herod arrested John for publicly accusing him of incest and adultery, ...read more

    From Doubting To Faith

     | 973 views

    The best thing we can do during difficulties and trials is to bring all our griefs, troubles, and discouragements to Jesus. This is what John the Baptist did when he was in prison, and it helped him move from doubting to faith.

    All me to begin with an illustration: “Joe Scriven was a missionary from Ireland to Canada, working among the Iroquois Indians. He was joined by his fiancé, who was also from Ireland. Just before the wedding, she was killed in an accident. Joe buried her with his own hands and a broken ...read more

    Doubt: The Devil’s Most Lethal Weapon

    Contributed by Rakesh Sharma on Oct 25, 2024
     | 1,041 views

    Doubt can be one of the most destructive forces in our spiritual lives, often leading us away from God's promises and plans. In this sermon, we will explore how the enemy uses doubt as a weapon against us and discover the truth that sets us free from its grasp.

    >> Opening Bible Verse: James 1:5-8 (NIV) "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and ...read more

    This message ends with the Catholic and Orthodox churches in Jerusalem opposing evangelical Christians. Leading up to that we will look at the Kingdom being set up, Simeon, John the Baptist, the timing for the Kingdom, and eschatology in Protestant churches. Things are moving in Israel.

    DO NOT DISCOUNT ISRAEL – OR DO IT TO YOUR OWN PERIL – ARROGANCE IN JERUSALEM [1]. INTRODUCTION Earlier this year there was a release from an organisation of Catholic and Orthodox leaders in Jerusalem that was an affront to Protestant Christians, to Jews and to Israel.

    When God’s plans confuse us, as they did John the Baptist, Jesus reminds us that His kingdom begins with mercy before judgment—and blessed is the one who trusts Him even in the waiting.

    Good MORNING. Advent, Christmas and the New Year invite us to look at expectations, not only expectations for our own lives, but also the expectations we can make about God.
