Being In Awe Of God Series

Contributed by Brad Henry on Dec 9, 2011

How to be poor in spirit not on the outside but only on the inside is the place where God can do His greatest work. We need to rely on the only One who can save us from Hell's grasp and the only One who can help us conquer fear and worry.

What do you think of this statement: “Sin” to see God? In our fourth lesson about “Being In Awe Of God” some of you just can’t get past the fact that you are in some sort of pit that you can’t get out of. Then you feel unworthy of asking God for anything since ...read more

Matthew 5 - Part 2 - What Do You Mean Bankruptsy Is Ok? Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 20, 2009

Who are the "poor in spirit"? Are they rich people with a poverty mentality? Are they poor people who are discouraged? Are they people who don’t have the strength of mind to make it in the world and Jesus wants to take them out?

Matthew 5 - Part 2 - So all of a sudden Bankruptsy is OK? When we lived in the Ukraine for a month, we witnessed incredible poverty. The beautifully ornate Churches over there have domes which are actually covered in gold leaf, but under them are the beggars. Such a contrast. I noticed at one ...read more

Matthew 5 - Part 3 - Good Grief! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 21, 2009

A book I read once was called "Good Grief" and it said that something good can come from losing a loved one. Jesus said to His disciples on the mountain,"Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted". Why did Jesus teach this to His Disciples?

The only thing about Christmas that bothers me is that people see Jesus as a baby, meek and mild but they don’t see Him for all that He really is.

Matthew 5 - Part 5 - Are You Hungry Enough To Do Something About It! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 23, 2009

Now we have a real problem here. We are told to hunger for Righteousness but this seems to contradict other scriptures that says that this kind of lifestyle is impossible for us to live.

Matthew 5 - Part 6 - Oh God, Please Don’t Send Me To Africa! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 25, 2009

So, do I have to go to the heart of Africa or some other war ravaged, AIDS ridden, refugee overrun, starving hordes kind of country before I can show mercy? I hope not! Is that unmerciful? What does being merciful really mean?

Matthew 5 - Take A Bath! You Smell Like A Hypocrite! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 27, 2009

Take a bath! You smell like a hypocrite! Better to live like the unbeliever you are than to act like a Christian on Sundays. Because at least you won’t be deceiving yourself. Take the Purity in heart test from Matthew 5 and examine your motives!

Matthew 5 - Take a bath! You smell like a hypocrite! I don’t know about you but I don’t like the term "pure in heart".

Matthew 5 - Part 8 - All I Want Is A Little Peace! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 28, 2009

Let’s get it right. A peacemaker is the person who has and encourages in others "peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us." (Romans 5:1). Jesus said "the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give" (John 14:27).

Matthew 5 - Part 8 - Kill the Peacemakers - Make war not Love! "BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS - for they shall be called sons of God." You may say "Well that’s nonsense.

Matthew 5 - Part 9 - Ever Been Criticised And Abused For Being A Christian? Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 29, 2009

Unfortunately for many Christians, compromise is easier than being criticised and no-one would ever know that they are Christians, or if they do know, they are disappointed by the kind of example that is given.

Matthew 5 - Part 8 - Have you ever been criticised and abused for being a Christian? One of my jobs some years ago was working with disabled people.
