     | 6,884 views

    Jesus was strengthened by his wilderness experience, and so are we. Jesus left the wilderness, called his disciples and started doing God’s work. We can also leave the wilderness and do God’s work, all the time being confident that we can face temptation.

    Have you ever faced temptation in your life? Each and every one of us has faced life’s temptations at some point in time, and we are always faced with the issue of how we are going to face them. Even Jesus was tempted, as we have heard in today’s Gospel reading. We can be tempted at any ...read more

    Following his baptism Jesus is led into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit and is tempted by Satan. His temptation helps him to focus on who he is and what he has been called to do.

    Matthew 4:1-17 “Focused” INTRODUCTION It is interesting to see how Hollywood has interpreted the temptation of Jesus. The truth is that we don’t know exactly what happened. No one was present with Jesus, in the wilderness, to record what actually took place. There were no ...read more

    Using the Temptation of Christ as a text, this sermon examines how sex is a good gift from God, but porn tries to offer a shortcut to sexual satisfaction.

    AN OVERLOOKED TRUTH: Sex was God’s idea and it is a good gift from Him. - Genesis 2:20-25. - The church often comes across as anti-sex. We talk a lot about what’s wrong with the way our culture handles sex. This sermon series largely falls into that category, so I’m not saying that there is no ...read more

    Scripture is a blessing that many of us take for granted, a tool that will establish us well for spiritual battles and develop us as individuals in life and in character.

    We are blessed to live in part of the world where we are able to still share scripture openly. There are countries in where the sharing of God’s word is illegal, where people would love to have access to read the Bible openly but do not. There are other places where the Bible is held in very high ...read more
