     | 3,714 views

    Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind.

    Jesus used the tiny mustard seed as a comparison to the Kingdom of God. Although it was small, it had potential to become great. The church would start very small, but soon make a significant and eternal impact on humanity.

    Little is Much Mark 4: 30-34 As we continue in Mark, we come to the fourth and final parable Jesus revealed to His disciples during this moment of teaching. Due to the resistance and unbelief of many, Jesus chose to teach primarily in parables. Those who genuinely sought truth would receive it, ...read more

    All seven sayings of Jesus, as He hung on the cross of Calvary, have deep and abiding meaning!

    We could take each saying and preach a sermon on it. For example, we could preach on: • His prayer, when He prayed, “Father, forgive them...” The promise of paradise He made to the repentant thief, Luke 23:43, “...Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” • His love ...read more

    The end of Joseph's life provides an opportunity to think about the legacy he left . . . and the legacy we will leave.
