    This is the martyred church. Jesus had no condemnation only encouragement for the suffering they would experience. Many still suffered in and for their faith. Christ is still with us.

    THE 2ND CHURCH OF REVELATION: Smyrna 3-3-02 Revelation 2:8-11 The first letter was to Ephesus … representing Apostolic Church – the church from Pentecost until about 110 a.d.

     | 7,186 views

    Do you know what? We do the same thing. We say the same erroneous things to ourselves that the Jews did and we do not even realize it. We need to be grounded in truth with ourselves and with God.

    GROUNDED IN TRUTH JOHN 8:31-41 INTRODUCTION... Was Popeye Right? By Karl Kruszelnicki’s abc.net.au/science 5-24-2001 The cartoon character Popeye is famous for eating spinach.

    Clashes Of Power Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 28, 2005
    based on 21 ratings
     | 3,785 views

    The series of clashes with the Pharisees reveal their blindness - blinded to (1) the true identity of Jesus and (2) the needs of man. Learn therefore that the power of life is in Jesus, and the focus of life ought to be the needs of others.

    The 5 clashes Jesus had with the Pharisees: Mark 2:7 "Why does this fellow talk like that? He’s blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone? - Jesus has authority on earth to forgive sins! Mark 2:17 "Why does he eat with tax collectors and ’sinners’?" - Jesus has come to save ...read more

    Beginnings are very important. However, they usually start very, very small.

    A Place of Beginning Micah 5:2 -- “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” Matthew 2:1 -- “Now when Jesus was born in ...read more

    The cry of freedom is what America celebrates this week. Freedom, however, comes in many forms. The political freedom Wallace heralded and that America celebrates is but one. We would do well to remember the others. That is at least part of what Je

    See what can happen when we fail to do what God has commisioned us to do - what will happen if we don’t fish for men?

    When Fishermen Don’t Fish. We all have a call. Jesus will make us Fishers of men. Matthew 4:18 - 20 What would you have done if the incident we have just read about happened to you?

    The Shadow Of The Cross Over The Incarnation

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Apr 13, 2001
    based on 74 ratings
     | 4,921 views

    The full significance of the Incarnation is only seen when its dark side is understood - in the Sign of a Sword to Mary’s heart, the Symbol of Myrrh as an offering from the wise men and the Sorrow of Rachael over her dead children.

    If the message of the Incarnation, the coming of Jesus into human experience, had to be condensed into a single sentence it couldn’t be bettered than the words of John: "He came to his own home and his own people received him not" (1:11). In the opening verses of his Gospel, John had already ...read more

    based on 18 ratings
     | 12,944 views

    Some see grief as something to get over with as quick as possible, but God wants to deepen us through it.

    Grief is typically treated as something to be "gotten over with" as soon as possible, or certain things are not seen as worthy of grief. If others were not impacted the same way as you then you have the problem. There doesn’t seem to be any room for people responding differently when it comes to ...read more
