Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Feb 25, 2018

At the cross we see an intimate exchange between one criminal and his Messiah. And there we find not only how to have eternal life, but what that life is like. Jesus points us to the original garden relationship we can have with God, ours for the asking.

Deceptive Looks

Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Apr 17, 2018

Jesus enters Jerusalem as the Messiah—King of the Jews. Kings hate other kings coming onto their turf. The king is crucified—a messenger of love and a victim of hate. In the process, what looks good turns out bad and what appears to be bad becomes good.

One day, the horse escaped into the hills and when the farmer's neighbors sympathized with the old man over his bad luck, the farmer replied, "Bad luck? Good luck? Who knows?" A week later, the horse ...read more

That’s what a shepherd is. That’s what a shepherd does. The Shepherd speaks to us with a voice that we cannot ignore. He says, “Relax, I’m your Shepherd. Don’t think about another thing. I have everything under control. Relax. No worries.”

The Rejection Of The Word Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Jun 11, 2012

The argument turns from how to be saved to why Israel wasn't saved with these verses. Like so many people today the Jews had rejected God's plan to save the world, they had rejected Jesus as the Messiah basically because they had rejected God's Word.

ROMANS 10: 17-21 THE REJECTION OF THE WORD We have just been advised in this passage dear friends that if you are seeking salvation you must be a hearer of the Word. We are to keep in mind that it is the Word of God that we need to hear, because the word of man cannot save you. It may delude ...read more

Standing On The Promises Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 30, 2022

In 2 Samuel 5-7 David stands on God’s promise to him. It is God’s covenant to David. The promise is that his decedents will reign on the throne of Israel forever. Yet this promise goes beyond David and his family and the King of Israel. It is the promise of the coming Messiah.

When God makes you a promise you can stand on that promise The Hymn says it well: Standing on the promises that cannot fail, When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail, By the living Word of God, I shall prevail, Standing on the promises of God. That hymn has brought great comfort to many ...read more
