    INTRO ƒ{ The stumbling block has become the Christian Subculture ƒ{ Much of what we do today at Citipoint is not only trying to tell people about Jesus ƒ{ But getting them beyond this Christian subculture barrier that we've created ƒ{ Jesus never wanted us to create a subculture ƒ{ Jesus hung ...read more

    In this message I am going to talk about a woman who touched Jesus where the ribbon of blue hung from His garment, the symbolism behind it, and the powerful message of grace it conveys.

    A Ribbon of Blue Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree... Colors from time immemorial have conveyed messages. Red is danger, yellow is caution, green is go. For the Jews, purple is royalty and blue symbolizes keeping the ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 18, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,060 views

    This encounter makes no sense (why would Matthew just get up and follow this man) unless you know the behind-the-scenes encounters that happened prior. This message unpacks the need for that hidden work in our lives to see God moves powerfully.

    WHY DOES MATTHEW FOLLOW A STRANGER? The public commitment was preceded by behind-the-scenes work. - Matthew 9:9. - Matthew 4:18-22; John 1:35-42. - Matthew doesn't follow a stranger. He had a previous relationship with Jesus. This public moment was preceded by behind-the-scenes things. - The ...read more

  • Why Did The "Sinners" Love Hanging Out With Jesus?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 30, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,873 views

    It's a fact worth pondering: the tax collectors and sinners LIKED being with Jesus. That's not usually how the lost feel around us. What did Jesus have that we don't?

    AN IMPORTANT FACT: The tax collectors and “sinners” liked hanging out with Jesus. - Matthew 9:10. - It’s easy to rush past verse 10 and get to the rest of this story, but it’s worth settling for a moment here and thinking about its implications. The tax collectors and ...read more

  • How Focusing On Sacrifice Can Twist Our Faith Into Something Ugly

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 6, 2014
     | 2,226 views

    Why focusing on sacrifice causes trouble and how focusing on compassion (as Jesus instructs us to) brings better results.

    WHAT'S WRONG WITH SACRIFICE? Sacrifice is not intrinsically bad, but the problem is when we say that more sacrifice equals a better Christian. - Matthew 9:13. - There is a lot that is good to sacrifice. Like many other things, though, making it the ultimate goal of our Christian life puts us in ...read more

  • Did Jesus Come To Repair The Old Way?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 13, 2014
     | 5,739 views

    Jesus' comment on wineskins is confusing to many. What does it mean and how does it tie into His comments right before that on fasting?

    DID JESUS COME TO REPAIR THE OLD WAY? There are some of the same elements, but we need to know that this is a new thing. - Matthew 9:14, 16-17. - There will still be fasting – Jesus doesn’t dismiss it. Instead, He says it’ll happen when He is taken away from them (when the ...read more

  • Jesus’ Word To Those At The Top And The Bottom

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 15, 2014
     | 4,409 views

    This passage is a "sandwich," which leads to some significant parallels and contrasts.

    THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING THIS PASSAGE: This story is a sandwich. - What does that mean? This is one of the multiple places in the Bible where a story is begun, then interrupted by another story, and then the first story is revisited and concluded. When that happens, there is always a great ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Jul 3, 2013
     | 6,911 views

    Jesus uses three contemporary examples to answer the question, "Why don't your disciples fast?"; In doing so, He explains the exclusiveness of the Kingdom of God.

    “Fast or Feast” Matthew 9:14-17 (Mark 2:18-22, Luke 5:33-39) To eat or not to eat; that is the question that is asked of Jesus. Matthew 9:14: “Then John's disciples came and asked him, "How is it that we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?" The question ...read more

    Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 26,137 views

    There are two main climates I want to preach on today, the first an atmosphere in our church that is conducive for a move of the Spirit of God, and the second is an atmosphere in our church and our personal lives that is attractive to the lost.

    Spiritual Climate Change The basic premise of global warming is that certain things done over an extended period of time will heat up the earth. Our message today is about improving the spiritual climate in our lives. There are things that we can do that effect our spiritual climate personally, in ...read more

    THE BENEFITS OF LOOKING BACK Matthew 9:9-10 I want you to imagine that just outside the doors of this church is a time machine that will immediately transport you back to the day that you were born again.
