    Knocking On Heaven's Door (Psalm 122)

    Contributed by James Jackson on Aug 10, 2025
     | 475 views

    Three things give us confidence to knock on Heaven's Door: We've been invited, Someone's home, and we desperately want what's inside.

    For a lot of people, there are few things more intimidating than knocking on a door. Think of the tension: at the closed door of your boss’s office. The front door of your prom date’s house. The front door of a neighbor’s house when you have girl scout cookies to sell. Knocking on a door can ...read more

    The Christian’s High Priest is better than the high priest under the Law of Moses because he is both God and Human so that we can draw near to the throne of Grace with confidence for help in time of need.

    The Great High Priest Heb. 4:14-16 The theme of the book of Hebrews can be phrased in one word . . . BETTER. The book is one comparison after another of Christ and the things the Jews revered. For instance, in 1:4-7, Jesus is declared to be better than the angels. In 3:1-6, Jesus as a son is ...read more

    Are we willing to make his service the priority in our life? Are we proclaiming the gospel in the confidence that comes from knowing Jesus, who taught with authority, who cast out demons and healed people of incurable diseases?

    Jesus begins his ministry with this clear announcement: “The time is fulfilled.” That is, it’s complete. Time’s up. We’re at the end of the line. Notice that John, the one who’s like Elijah, has finished his ministry. Mark wants to make it clear that the time of ...read more
