    Lord Of The Sabbath ( Matthew 12:1-14)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 23, 2025
     | 362 views

    In this chapter, Jesus teaches the true meaning of the “Sabbath” and how it is to bring glory to God, not to be used as a religious weapon. The hostility towards Jesus was starting to grow.

    Before we undergo any further study of this chapter, it would be helpful to understand the concept of the “Sabbath”. According to the fourth commandment (Exodus 20:8), the Sabbath was set aside as one day in seven to cease from labor and take a rest from all unnecessary activity. Exodus 31:15 ...read more

    Bout With Doubt

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 10, 2025
     | 68 views

    Doubt is not the same as unbelief; God invites honest questions and meets us in our struggles through His living Word and Spirit. King Josiah’s tender heart toward Scripture shows that even when visible results seem small, faithfulness matters because God speaks through His Word and through us.

    Introduction – When Doubt Knocks A young man knelt before his beloved, ring in hand. “Sweetheart, I love you so much. I want you to marry me. I don’t have a car like Johnny Green. I don’t own a yacht like Johnny Green. I don’t have a house as big as Johnny Green’s. I don’t have the money of ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 721 views

    The Trinity, as revealed in Matthew 28:16-20, highlights the authority, mission, and presence of God in the work of salvation. We are called to embrace the mystery and unity of the Trinity as we live out our faith and share the love of God with the world.

    Hey guys, welcome! Today we're going to talk about something that might sound a bit complicated, but it's actually super cool. It's called the Trinity. You might have heard of it as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. So, what's the Trinity? It's the idea that God is one, but also three. It's like a ...read more

    We can reign with the Lamb who reigns right now by obeying him, be intercessors and by sharing in His suffering.

We’ll complete that process this morning as we examine the continuation of that vision in Chapter 5. As I pointed out last week, the vision ...read more

    The One to Whom all authority has been given, in Heaven and on earth, says, "Go therefore..."

    A closer study of all four of the gospels and the opening chapter of Acts will reveal to even the most casual student, that Jesus was seen by many people in various places, after His resurrection and prior to His ascension to Heaven.

    Failure to submit to God given authority figures in our lives keeps us from his Blessings.

    God’s Chain of Command Our nation began with the revolutionary war. It seems we have been revolting ever since. In the name of individual rights we have crushed the soul of society “submission to authority”. It seems we have been in one rebellion after another. The draft dodgers of the ...read more

    Are you saved? Are you Spirit filled? Are you sanctified? How about submissive to Gods’ authority or to those in authority around you? Are you suffering for Christ sake or are you just suffering? based on John MacArthur's "Found: God's Will"

    Last week we started looking at the question “What is Gods’ Will for me? And we saw the very first thing that; 1. In order to be in God’s Will I must first be saved. There is no Will without a personal relationship with Jesus Christ… 2. God’s Will is that I be Spirit ...read more

    Jesus gave two images of himself: He is our good shepherd, so we can trust his voice and follow him. And he is the gate, our entry into salvation and ultimate security.

John included seven “I am” statements, where Jesus publicly identified himself with the great “I am,” Yahweh, the covenant God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the One who would ...read more
