    When we follow Jesus, we believe that God has something better for us and all of humanity. That is the message of the readings from Jeremiah, Hebrews and Luke. We are to spread that message in our world by witnessing to God's love for us.

    There is a story that Dr. Ian Paisley, the fiery Irish minister and politician, was preaching one Sunday on the end times, and in particular on the Day of Judgment. As he reached the climax of his address, he said that on the Day of Judgment, "there would be wailing and gnashing of teeth". At that ...read more

    Everything. Period.

    "What's Love Got to Do with It?" Matthew 22:34-40 We live in a very "religious" world, and I suppose that we always have. Most people, even if they don't admit it, believe in God. One snowy day in Syracuse, New York...many, many moons ago...I was driving "a bit" too fast down an icy, curvy ...read more

     | 8,477 views

    The woman was rebuffed by Jesus, yet responded with a deep faith in God's love for all people independent of gender or race. The people of the Decapolis were presented with an overwhelming demonstration of Jesus' Messianic power yet without believing.

    In the previous section of Mark 7 Jesus is confronted by the Pharisees over the issue of washing hands. He responds by pointing out that their reliance on their traditions has blinded them to the much more central issue of purity of heart. He points out to them that washing your hands won't make ...read more

     | 4,491 views

    How can we be assured of our election? It is demonstrated in our love for God, then our brethren, then our neighbors, and finally to our enemies

    True Love I John 3:13-18 Introduction In the previous section, we are told that what one does defines the person. A person is not who he/she claims to be unless they can back their words with actions. If one speaks like Jesus and acts like the devil, he/she is the latter. The principal ...read more

  • Render To God The Things That Are God's

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 11, 2013
     | 12,228 views

    Jesus says, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's" (Matt 22:21). Most sermons on this verse deal with the first part of this verse, but what does the second part mean? What does it mean to render to God?

    MAIN TEXT: Matt 22:15-22 (parallels in Mark 12:13–17 and Luke 20:20–26) The Jews were desperately seeking to discredit Jesus, because within the context, He was speaking parables against them. They would stop at nothing to do so. Within the context of this verse, various groups ask Him ...read more

    Peter urges us as believers (especially new ones) to be nourished and grow closer to Jesus, and he highlights five anti-growth attributes that will keep us from doing so! Avoid the evil, cling to what is good!

     | 7,640 views

    Religious traditions are dangerous. We can easily be satisfied by them. Passified by them so that we go to sleep and do not follow God's call. May God deliver us!

    Matthew 15:1-20 has been a key passage to point out the danger of vain worship by following man made traditions instead of God's word. I have often heard this passage applied to the activities that we do in our church services, but Jesus' application is actually much broader. So just what is a ...read more
