    Who Are You To Judge? #1 Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Jul 26, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,104 views

    Judgement of the eternal status of another is never our responsibility. Our responsibility is to choose our path daily.

    This week we begin a summer series entitled, Tell Me A Story. “Tell me a Story” is a simple way to reference Jesus' use of parables to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson. Jesus told 36 different short stories in the gospels. Telling stories is one of the most powerful means that leaders ...read more

    Part 3 - Matthew 12:9-14 -Deformities Of The Heart And Hand Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Sep 19, 2010
    based on 26 ratings
     | 9,683 views

    The CLAWED FINGERS of their law system were DISTORTED AND MALFORMED and particularly difficult to uproot. It is not at all surprising that Jesus uses a man with a DEFORMED HAND to illustrate what needed to be done if ever they were to be healed of their D

    Part 3 - Matthew 12:9-14 -DEFORMITIES OF THE HEART AND HAND Yesterday, with the encouragement of my wife, I got rid of some THORNY WEEDS growing like trees in the back garden. The thorns were now like razor sharp nails and so it was difficult to get to the roots without punctures, scratches and a ...read more

    Part 11 - Matthew 12:22-37 - The Music Of My Soul Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Oct 26, 2010
    based on 49 ratings
     | 6,621 views

    If my heart writes the music of my life then my WORDS are the LYRICS OF THE SOUL. I can tell from the lyrics what is in your heart. Open your mouth and I can hear what kind of song is in your heart.

    Part 10 - Matthew 12:22-37 - THE MUSIC OF MY SOUL "Where’s my..." "On the kitchen bench" "...keys". "What happened to my..." "It’s in the washing machine. You wore it yesterday." My wife knows my thoughts before I ask. It’s uncanny. "Do you know where my..." "On your desk" "...phone is". She is ...read more

    Matthew 5 - Part 4 - Gentle Jesus, Meek And Mild - Not! Series

    based on 9 ratings
     | 12,701 views

    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.

    Perhaps the reason that I embraced Christianity so easily was that the Christian faith doesn’t demand intelligence. Now don’t be so unkind...

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

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 28, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,536 views

    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. All you have to do is see all the so-called Christians who have been involved in bloody conflict in history, all done in the Name ...read more

    Matthew 5 – Part 19 – "But The Guy Is A Jerk And Deserves It!” Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 8, 2010
    based on 10 ratings
     | 6,585 views

    Most action movies have some aspect of revenge in their storyline. When the bad guy finally gets killed, I agree with the hero as he says, “The guy was a jerk and deserved everything he got!” Am I the only one? Jesus challenges my thinking!

    Matthew 5 – Part 19 – “BUT THE GUY IS A JERK AND DESERVES IT!” Most action movies I have seen have some aspect of revenge in their storyline. And I must admit it, when the bad guy finally gets killed, I am there saying on the inside “The guy was a jerk and deserved everything he got!” Am I the ...read more

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Feb 7, 2010
    based on 8 ratings
     | 4,152 views

    I seek to serve His purposes no matter what and He will supply for me. Now that takes faith, for me at least. I have to gulp and leap into the unknown.

    Matthew 6 – Part 10 – GULPING AND LEAPING INTO THE UNKNOWN? Last time I mentioned that I don’t have any paid employment at present. Moving to Sydney has been a step of faith. We have limited resources for the future. Our possessions fit into a garage. I am excited about what God ...read more

    Part 4 - Matthew 10:5-6 - No Dogs Or Women Allowed! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Apr 28, 2010
    based on 18 ratings
     | 5,115 views

    Jesus only calls men to be among the 12 disciples? Why no women? IS HE A MALE CHAUVINIST? At first He sends them only to Israel? IS HE A RACIST? I don’t think so.

    Part 4 - Matthew 10:5-6 - "NO DOGS OR WOMEN ALLOWED." Some years ago in Whitsunday Baptist Church a few men got together and started a prayer meeting. We met every week on a MONDAY MORNING AT 6 AM at Wyn’s place. It was high up on the side of a mountainous hill that overlooked Proserpine and back ...read more

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on May 10, 2010
    based on 11 ratings
     | 3,922 views

    When Jesus gives His disciples the authority to "Heal the sick, raise the dead," in Matthew 10:8 I'm not sure that playing loud music is what He had in mind. But the "wailing out the truth" part certainly was.

    Part 9 - Matthew 10:5-13 - MUSIC TO RAISE THE DEAD! "MUSIC TO RAISE THE DEAD", an album from a Christian Rock group called Resurrection startled the Christian world with it's intensity in the 1970's. They did this in a day when many conservative pastors and evangelists actively thundered their ...read more

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on May 15, 2010
    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,721 views

    I have heard the terms "GO TO HELL" and "SEE YOU IN HELL" used all too casually over the years. Hell, as described in the Bible, is not something you would wish on even your worst enemies.

    Part 12 - Matthew 10:11-15 - THEY CAN GO TO HELL? I was speaking to someone about New Zealand a couple of days ago and how when we went there we had explored the colourful natural volcanic areas of Rotorua - bubbling mud, steaming ground and geysers, huge volcanic craters and weird and wonderful ...read more

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on May 21, 2010
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,448 views

    I remember as a kid watching the TV series called "KUNG FU" staring David Caradine. The blind Master Po (Keye Luke) calls his young student "GRASSHOPPER" to "EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED". We are not grasshoppers but we are called to BEWARE.

    Part 14 - Matthew 10:18-19 - GRASSHOPPER, EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED! A friend of mine works as a boilermaker in Bowen, Queensland Australia. He is a big man with muscles like an Olympic weight lifter, a voice that booms and a laugh that is full and infectious. PATRICK PATTERSON loves the Lord and if ...read more

    based on 30 ratings
     | 6,353 views

    "Well he started it!" "No I didn't, she did!" Sorry, I am just reminded of my childhood days when the arguments got too heated with my sister. But this is a slightly bigger battle. John started it and the repercussions of his actions have been ongoing.

    Part 4 - Matthew 11:12 - WELL HE STARTED IT! Since I had nothing better to do and everyone had gone out, I decided to watch the war movie "SAVING PRIVATE RYAN". It was some years ago now and I was at my daughter's house and Joel, my son-in-law had just connected his TV WITH SURROUND SOUND. The ...read more
