    When More Faith Is Not The Problem

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 31, 2017
     | 10,112 views

    This passages initially looks like a call to greater faith, but what Jesus is actually saying points in the opposite direction.

    WHY DID JESUS SAY THAT? Who wants a flying mulberry tree? - Luke 17:6. - This verse is generally taken as a generic injunction to have more faith, but let’s think about it for a moment. It’s a peculiar request when you think about it. Why exactly would anyone want to watch a mulberry tree come ...read more

    Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw! Mark 12:44”for they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had, her whole livelihood."

Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.” 1 ...read more

     | 4,005 views

    If we stand for Jesus, we will inevitably face the same kind of opposition that He did. How do we respond? His example gives us a clue as he faces both the unbelief of his own family, and the deadly opposition of israel's leaders.

    Everyone lives by a measure of faith; it is a fact of life. We trust in things and people to live from day to day. We trust in chairs to support us, cars, elevators, telephones for communication, the red light is going to stop the traffic from coming the opposite direction, and so on.

    This sermon explores how Isaac's story teaches us to persist against opposition, honor our spiritual heritage, and trust in God's provision during difficult times.

    As Jesus continued to provide instructions regarding the ministry He had called the disciples to engage, again He emphasized the difficulty they would encounter. Although this was a worthy task, with eternal implications, their opposition would be evident and extensive.

    Confident to Serve Matthew 10: 23-28 As we continue to study the conversation Jesus had with the disciples in order to prepare them for Kingdom ministry, again we find the Lord being totally honest with them about what to expect. While their task was certainly worthwhile, having eternal ...read more

He faced constant challenges in doing the work of God. • It started with discouraging words of ridicule and intimidation, and then grew into more intense, life-threatening situation that requires them to carry arms. • The problems came from without, and then ...read more
