    In following Jesus, we sign up for both his suffering and his victory.

    A Messiah Who Sends Part 2: Expecting Opposition Text: Matt. 10:16-23 Introduction 1. Illustration: John Stott wrote, “I could never believe in God, if it were not for the cross… In the real world of pain, how could one worship a God who was immune to it? I have entered many ...read more

    God's Missionary Heart

    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

    We have been studying the gospel of Matthew. Let me get a running start on today’s lesson in chapter 10 by reviewing briefly the message of Matthew thus far: What is in the first chapter? The genealogy of Jesus and Joseph’s story. Verse 21 is the key verse: “You shall call ...read more

    Does Jesus really call us to a simple, exciting life?

    “Divide and Conquer” Mt. 10:17-42 Drew Dyck once volunteered at a youth event put on by a national youth ministry. Near the end of an evening full of games, fun, and food the leader began his devotional talk by stating, “Being a Christian isn’t hard. You won’t lose ...read more

    Sheep Among Wolves

    Contributed by David Mcnally on Jun 26, 2011
     | 12,088 views

    Jesus did not call us to an easy, comfortable life, but one of challenge and opposition, and possibly even suffering and death. He gives us forgiveness of sin and eternal life, but requires us to take up our cross as we follow him.

    Jesus would have fallen foul of the Health and Safety laws if he had been around today, and I imagine it would have been hard for him to advertise on TV. Just imagine someone saying today: ‘Come and follow me, and the chances are you will be spat upon, thumped, sworn at, and maybe ...read more

    Wise As Serpents

     | 11,056 views

    Jesus challenged us to be as wise as serpents. In this message we will learn from the attacks on the Jews in the book of Nehemiah, and use it as inspiration to aggressively go after the lost.

    Wise as Serpents In our messages so far in the book of Nehemiah we have been talking about the building of walls to keep the enemy out. Today we are going to switch places with the enemy and talk about how to take down walls or overcome them. I think we can learn some things from the enemy of our ...read more

    The greatest message that can prove that Jesus is real, that can draw others to the Lord, and bring about church enlargement is simply a body of believers working together in love and unity; a church that manifests and demonstrates TEAMWORK

    During Jesus’ earthly ministry He gave us a model on how to do ministry work. Jesus approach to ministry was to select a team of people to work closely together to achieve a common goal. Though Jesus was God in human form, though He had all wisdom, knowledge and understanding, He didn’t ...read more

    Persistence Through Persecution Series

    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,973 views

    Jesus openly warns that the missionary aspect of the mission of His followers would be countered with serious & even deadly opposition. Yet Jesus also knew that danger & even threat of death could not defeat a soul set ablaze by His eternal love.

    MATTHEW 10: 16-23 [THE MESSIAH REVEALED] PERSISTENCE THROUGH PERSECUTION [Acts 4:8-21] Previously the Twelve's mission had been depicted as being received in a relatively friendly manner. In this passage, the disciples were warned that many who rejected the Kingdom message would not leave it ...read more

    when we embrace the mission of Jesus, we make a commitment to hazardous work. And yet one of the things we see in the church today is that following Jesus has become something far less than that. It’s more about comfort than danger and belief rather than

    Risk Takers Matthew 10:16-22, The Message Elizabeth Elliott wrote a book called, Through Gates of Splendor.

     | 8,112 views

    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.

    Harmless Matthew 10:16 “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.” Introduction: The one mark that Christ said would distinguish His followers is the love they have for each other (John 13:35).

    Jesus had spent time with the disciples, preparing them for the work of ministry. He had instructed them on where to go, what to do, and how to conduct themselves among men. Then He shared the difficulty they would face as they served Him, being rejected by most.

    Courage to Serve Matthew 10: 16-22 Jesus had commissioned the twelve for ministry, providing detailed instruction regarding the work they were expected to perform. Jesus had told them where to go, what to take, and how to conduct themselves as they ministered among men. Now Jesus offered insight ...read more

    In perhaps the most challenging parable to understand, Jesus calls us to use our worldly wealth for divine purposes, to be faithful where we are, and to keep God first in our lives.

    Luke 16:1-13 Wisdom in Wealth What if you came to church one Sunday, and your pastor got up to give the sermon and said, “I don’t have a clue what this means!” Well, I’m pretty close to that with today’s passage. Maybe you could relate to that kind of pastor, since sometimes the Bible is just hard ...read more
