    In times of confusion and angst, sometimes people want a sign that God is around. This message reveals God's roadsigns, that point to life with him.

    INTRO Have you ever wanted proof – a sign, something tangible that you could see, touch, taste, feel with your senses that God really exists, something beyond the extraordinary? People everywhere are always looking for a sign that God exists, that God is moving in and through their ...read more

    Authentic inculturation means that we Christianize the culture in which we live.

    18 July 2011 The Spirit of the Liturgy I recall from grade school days when some particularly hard-hearted kid wanted to get under my skin, he would say “Prove it!” to anything I might advance. We see this in the Hebrews fleeing from Egypt. They trusted Moses until they got into a ...read more

    This is a study on the subject of what day of the week was Jesus crucified to fulfill the prophecy He spoke about Himself in Matt. 12:40.

    Three Days and Three Nights: On What Day of the Week Was Jesus Crucified? This morning we are going to have a little Bible Study as opposed to a sermon. A few weeks ago I was approached with a question concerning the timing of the death, burial and resurrection of Christ that I have found many ...read more

    When we listen to and obey our Lord Jesus we are received into a new spiritual family.

    THE NEED FOR SPIRITUAL CHANGE. Matthew 12:22-50. The spiritual blindness of the people opposed to Jesus is demonstrated in their reaction to His good works. Their refusal to hear His message is echoed in their speaking out against Him. A demon-possessed man, who was physically both blind and ...read more

     | 14,404 views

    In today’s lesson we see, first, the request for a sign (that Jesus prove that he is the Messiah, the Son of God, and the Savior of sinners), and second, the response of Jesus.

    Scripture Today is Easter Sunday, the day that the Christian Church around the world celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Two thousand years ago Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Jesus knew that his life mission was “to seek and to save the lost” (Luke 19:10). He knew that he was ...read more

    Which Jesus?

    Contributed by Paul Barreca on Mar 28, 2013
     | 4,549 views

    The burial of Christ confronts us with the clear reality of his death and resurrection. The burial of Christ ensures that we accept the historicity of his death and resurrection.

    The gospel is summarized in 1 Corinthians 15:3-4. The Apostle Paul writes, “For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,” (1 ...read more

    In the end, God prevails and Jonah misses the point. The book ends with our graceful and merciful God reconciled with the city turned around and our not so heroic prophet still angry. BUT Jesus still calls him, His Prophet!!

    Matthew 12:38-41 (NKJV) “He is Greater” The Seeker (Teacher, we want to see a sign from You) The “Seeker Sensitive” Church (God does not hide – If you seek you shall find) Romans 3:11 quotes Psalm 14 “There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God.” John 6:26, Jesus answered ...read more
