    I have to admit I felt annoyed at what I thought was his ignorance and arrogance when he spoke about the Church we attend. I feel that way when any Bible based Church is denigrated or dismissed.

    Part 13 - Matthew 10:16 - WISE AS SERPENTS OR JUST SPITTING VENOM? I was talking to a friend on Friday about our Church. He said he didn’t like our way of doing Church.

    Matthew 10 records how the disciples become GOSPEL TERRORISTS, terrorists of a very different kind who are going to fire some LOADED TRUTH GRENADES right in the middle of the nation of Israel, not to destroy but to save.

    God has always been on a mission. From Creation to Consumation God has been on a mission. From making us in His image to restoring us to that image, God works with missionary zeal. Matthew reveals how Jesus forms that missionary heart into the disciple

    The one mark that Christ said would distinguish His followers is the love they have for each other. We have shown a different picture. As a church we must stop hurting each other. We must learn to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
