    You must not be called ’Teacher,’ because you are all equal and have only one Teacher. And you must not call anyone here on earth ’Father,’ because you have only the one Father in heaven. Nor should you be called ’Leader,’ because your one and only leader

    “Call no man ‘Father’” says Jesus. That’s part of our reading today from Matthew 23. Jesus says, “call no man ‘Father’”. What’s that doing here? And I don’t just mean what’s it doing here as this week’s reading. I mean, what’s it doing in the Bible? Since the (not so recent) publication of “The ...read more

    Being a father today is a huge responsibility. Trying to be a Christian Dad is even harder as our children are subjected to the evil in our society. But with Gods strength and counsel you can do a great job as a father.

    Fathers Day 2009 Psalm 32 While sitting in my office preparing for this sermon for Fathers Day I was hoping that it would be a thoughtful message full of wisdom, reflection and insight.

    Jesus’ first cry on the cross ushered in His ministry of intercession for the world. He has not ceased to intercede for us. Man’s greatest need is the forgiveness of our sin.

    Jesus prayed, "Father, forgive them..." (Luke 23:34). This was the first recorded cry of Jesus on the cross. • It sums up the reason He was there. It encapsulates the meaning of the cross. • He was asking God to give men what they needed most – forgiveness of their sin. • Jesus is going to pay ...read more

    The Parable Of The Good Father

    Today we will look at a familiar passage of scripture commonly called the parable of the prodigal son but I feel a fitting title would be the parable of the good father. We see the selfishness of the two sons set off against the love of the good father.

    Introduction Today we will be studying a fairly familar passage of scripture, familar to most of us as the parable of the prodigal son but most aptly called in my opinion the parable of the good father. Luke 15:11-12 And he said, A certain man had two sons: 12 And the younger of them said to his ...read more

    The waiting father reaches deep into the reservoirs of love, extending compassion to his wayward son. So we also as parents must seek not to control but to guide and then be ready for forgiveness.

    I shall not soon forget the image he presented, this father of the bride. He had smiled all through the vast and elaborate preparations for the wedding; his daughter was a kind of elegant princess, he knew it, she knew it, everybody knew it – and so the princess must have a grand occasion. ...read more

    To those who are lost and living under slavery to the power and curse of Sin, the Word is saying “Come make peace with God.” To those who do have salvation through accepting Jesus, God is saying “learn what you have been restored with and live by it.”

    “But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet...” (Luk 15:20) This is a well known parable, most Christians have either heard of it or study on it.

    So what do we learn from this parable? We learn who the Father is, and what His nature is.

    Intro Today, Jesus tells us a parable, a story. You probably know the Parable of the Prodigal Son. And the point of the parable is simple: When the lost are found, you rejoice. Instead of being a spoilsport, looking down on someone else, you rejoice when a sinner repents, and you join the ...read more
