    Examines what true discipleship is supposed to look like.

    WHAT DOES A CHRISTIAN LOOK LIKE? 2 12 This past Wednesday, many across our country and others, went to their local churches to have ashes placed on their foreheads, as a sign of repentance. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, a 40-day period that many “give-up” something in ...read more

    This message looks at the implications of Peter’s confession in Matthew 16.

    There are times when asking certain questions seem to heighten the drama of the moment. “Do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?” “Do you swear to tell the truth…?” “Where were you on the night of…?” Questions such as these have the ability to cut through all the surface stuff and ...read more

    Matthew 16

    BEAR THE CROSS TO WEAR THE CROWN (MATTHEW 16:21-28) Being a disciple of Christ is quite costly in many parts of Asia and Africa even though it is quite a tame or mild affair in the Western world. In Iran, 32-years old pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, leader of a network of Iranian house churches, was ...read more

    Peter Falls On His Face

     | 2,927 views

    Right after an astounding and historical confession of faith, here we find Peter arguing with Jesus. And the source of the problem was predictable, since Peter was a human being stuck in the physical and being led into the spiritual realm. Self-interests

    Passage: Matthew 16:21-28 Intro: Peter must have been feeling pretty good! 1. just made the first confession of faith in Jesus as Promised Messiah and the Son of God. 2. great enthusiasm from Jesus, “go to the head of the class!” 3. and then, a few minutes later, everything has changed. 4. ...read more

    El Peligro De Los Mega-Ídems

    Contributed by Byron Perrine on Apr 22, 2020
     | 1,628 views

    En este discurso, he reelaborado varios sermones de otros predicadores con un énfasis ligeramente diferente basado en la traducción de la versión inglesa contemporánea de Mateo 16: 23, a saber: «estás en el camino porque piensas como todos los demás... ».

    Comparar una variedad de versiones bíblicas puede ser muy útil, y dado el hecho de que los textos originales del Nuevo Testamento fueron escritos en una antigua forma del griego, es difícil extraer el significado exacto del texto y transferirlo al inglés. A través de la ...read more

    Look, you need to know this man died. He was tortured and executed. It was awful.

    In the book, How to Disappear, there are true stories of people who faked their own deaths to collect on life insurance policies, or simply to start over. To catch them, specialists are hired. The book says many get caught by doing things like visiting their mother. Or, they chose a new name that ...read more

    This message is about what a spiritual attack looks like and what can be done about it.

    Do you remember the record where Peter rebukes Jesus for telling the disciples He was going to die in Jerusalem? Of course you do. Turn with me to Matthew 16. (21) From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the ...read more

    In this discourse, I've reworked several sermons from other preachers with a slightly different emphasis based upon the Contemporary English Version's translation of Matthew 16:23, namely, "You're in the way because you think like everybody else..."

    (If you have found this sermon useful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) Comparing a variety of Biblical versions can be very helpful, and given the fact that the original New Testament texts were written in an old form of Greek, drawing out the ...read more

    Part 1: Preparing For The Fight Series

     | 5,565 views

    I was raised NOT to fight. My Father told me since I was knee-high that fighting was wrong and that I would get a “whoopin’” if he ever found out that I had been fighting.

    The first fight I ever had was unofficial if you will and it was between a local farm-boy and myself. I was defeated, although it took awhile, and I ended up with two black eyes and some swelling to my jaw. I never asked for the fight but it happened and I was ill-prepared to defend ...read more

    In this episode from the life of Peter, we learn how to avoid being used by Satan to stop the progress of God's kingdom.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a minister who parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter. 1. So he put a note under the windshield wiper that read: “I have circled the block 100 times. If I don't park here, I'll ...read more

    Peter fails to see Jesus's supremecy and plan for the coming kingdom and tries to push his plan instead. We often do the same in telling God how things are going to work instead of looking at his plan

    Have you ever stuck your foot in your mouth? Have you ever had a time where you thought you knew what you were talking about but it turns out that you didn’t quite have all the facts straight.
