    Yhwh The Son

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Feb 7, 2018
     | 4,135 views

    This sermon is an attempt to help us to realize the gravity and magnitude of Who is being introduced in the first chapter of Mark. When we describe the Trinity as God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit it tends to fragment YHWH in our minds.

    Please open your Bibles to Mark 1:9-13 which we will read in a few minutes. Last week we took a look at what John the Baptist meant when he said that he was baptizing people with water but Jesus would baptize them with the Holy Spirit. And we saw that Grace is God’s underserved favor toward ...read more

    Sometimes “maybe” is all I have. Finding faith when I am in pain, when my world is crumbling, when I don’t understand is difficult. Lord, I believe, help me overcome my unbelief.”

    When Faith Falters (Mark 9:14-29) Intro: A. For Peter, James and John life was incredible. They had witness Jesus radiating like the sun; they had seen two great heroes (Moses and Elijah) who were dead, but obviously living talking to Jesus; they had heard the voice of God ...read more

    Trusting God When Times Are Tough: The Christmas Hangover Have you ever had a hangover? I hear they can be rough. You know the story… the night before, you felt alive. You even loved everyone.

    The people of Nineveh really were terrible godless, violent sinners. Just the kind of people that God loved and wanted to save.

    A whale of a tale Jonah 3:1-5 NIV 1 Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time: 2 Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message I give you. 3 Jonah obeyed the word of the LORD and went to Nineveh.

    As Christians, there are some things that God used in the generations before us and it's high time we dig afresh some of these wells and allow God to provide 'a well of springing water'.

    Opening illustration: Illustration of the well at our home in Muladha, Oman. • The water in our faucets was stinking • Found a dead cat in our well • The well needed to be covered and air tight • No contamination allowed from outside environment or sources • No space ...read more

    A Good Plan That Went Awry – Or Did It? Series

     | 2,481 views

    A unanimous apostolic plan that went awry, Jewish rumors, gentile riots, and an apostle getting a ride on Roman soldiers. The purpose of the Christian life is not to avoid problems; indeed, God can sometimes use our problems to further His plans.

    A Good Plan That Went Awry – Or Did It? (Acts 21:17-40) 1. The invention of Post-it notes is interesting. What seemed like a failure was turned to a great success: In 1968, scientist Spencer Silver at the 3M company created a very weak adhesive that would peel off when removed from any surface. ...read more
