The Man Without A Wedding Garment

Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 13, 2017

Imagine missing Heaven because you wore the wrong clothes! Sounds absurd. But something as simple as that will damn millions, because they want to wear their own righteousness rather than that which Jesus provided. Get the festal robe today!

HUMOR: CRAZY THINGS CAN HAPPEN AT A WEDDING 1. “How did the wedding go?” asked the pastor’s wife. “Fine, dear, until I asked the bride whether she would ‘Love, honor, and OBEY her husband.’” “She looked at me and said, ‘Do you think I’m ...read more

The Lord's Prayer 4 - Learning To Call God Father: Our Father Series

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Aug 24, 2024

We start the Lord's Prayer in a very personal way, calling God our Father - what a privilege but it goes even deeper than that as we are taught to call God, Abba Father where Abba means daddy. All this shows us how unique the Lord's prayer is, the prayer jesus taught us to pray.

Learning to call God Father: Our Father; who is in heaven. Do you know the wonderful thing about scripture is that you can read, re-read and read again the SAME passage and each time get something different from it! Many times nothing at all but sometimes there is that flash of inspiration when ...read more

The Truth That Will Set Us Free

Contributed by Craig Condon on Feb 9, 2015

Ganging Up On Jesus Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jun 11, 2012

In this portion of Mark we get a clearer picture of what it means to rely on God for things, and what it means to rely on the government. Here the religious leaders try to trip Jesus up, but they fall right into His trap.

After the episode in the Temple on the previous day, I guess Jesus should have expected the religious leaders of Israel to react. In fact, the Lord is trying to get them to react and eventually figure out a way to arrest and condemn Him. In the end of Chapter 11 and into Chapter 12 we see a series ...read more

Who's Living In Your House?

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Jan 21, 2020

In our text this morning, Jesus uses a strange illustration about demon possession to make a very important point about the problem of half-baked, external repentance. In this portion of the text, Jesus talks about an unclean spirit that has gone out of a person; but still seeking rest.
