  • Matthew 13:1-23 – Part 7 - A Return On The Investment Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Feb 4, 2011
    based on 14 ratings
     | 7,241 views

    In the midst of this devastation a harvest of another kind is ripening and producing an incredible return.

    Matthew 13:1-23 – Part 7 - A RETURN ON THE INVESTMENT Vehicles being thrown around like toys in the rushing waters and heartbreaking stories of lives lost have filled the news reports. The damage to bumper harvests was also devastating, probably in the billions of dollars, as the states of ...read more

    It is called “Bastard wheat” because in its early stages it cannot be distinguished from real wheat. “When the crop began to grow and produce grain, the weeds also grew” (Matthew 13:26 NLT). I’m sure Jesus was looking at the Pharisees when He told this pa

    Matthew 13:24-26 - Part 9 – TOXIC OR TRANSFORMED? He didn’t look much like a missionary to me. He was built like a tank in terms of muscles. Not the way I pictured a missionary should be. He should have been skinny from lack of support from his home church, with an old brown cardigan. ...read more

  • Part 4 - Matthew 11:12 - Well He Started It! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jun 5, 2010
    based on 30 ratings
     | 6,432 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

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

    Part 8 - Matthew 11:25-30 - WITHOUT THE ENCUMBRANCE OF GENIUS Perhaps it is the reason that I embraced Christianity so easily was that the Christian faith doesn’t demand intelligence. I have an above average intelligence level. Well, actually, although it was above average according to the IQ test ...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
     | 5,185 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

  • Part 9 - Matthew 10:5-13 - Music To Raise The Dead! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on May 10, 2010
    based on 11 ratings
     | 4,002 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

    I work in a building called THE SHALOM CENTRE in Sydney. Recently Kathryn, a Jewish girl said she found it unusual that we would call a building Shalom, since it is a Jewish term for saying HI AND GOODBYE.

  • Part 12 - Matthew 10:11-15 - They Can Go To Hell? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on May 15, 2010
    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,900 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

  • Part 14 - Matthew 10:18-19 - Grasshopper, Expect The Unexpected! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on May 21, 2010
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,529 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

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 22, 2009
    based on 9 ratings
     | 12,847 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.

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

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 28, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,657 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

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Sep 19, 2010
    based on 26 ratings
     | 9,947 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
