    Lesson #8: To Become A Merciful And Faithful High Priest Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 30, 2019
     | 3,341 views

    The element of solidarity: the champion emerges out of the people; he can represent them only because he is one of them. Similarly, the high priest is chosen from among the people; he can represent them effectively only because He enjoys solidarity with the people.

    6/17/19 Tom Lowe Lesson #8: TO BECOME A MERCIFUL AND FAITHFUL HIGH PRIEST (HEBREWS 2:17-18) Scripture: Hebrews 2:17-18 (NIV) 17 For this reason he had to be made like them, fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and ...read more

    Stages On The Journey

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 2, 2022
     | 2,829 views

    On the journey of faith, our spiritual vision is often clouded. As we continue on the journey, Jesus corrects our spiritual vision. We are to remain on the journey of faith, looking to Jesus for improved vision. Luke gives us three reasons.

    I am looking at this passage as a portrayal of the Christian journey of faith. Like all journeys, the Christian pilgrimage through life has a point of departure, a destination, and a route through which we travel from one to the other. Verse 39 shows us a pilgrim who has just begun the journey. ...read more

    The Fundamentals Of Fasting Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 2, 2022
     | 3,444 views

    Fasting is something that creates uncertainty and anxiety in the minds of many. I think if we will take the time to consider what our Lord has to say and seek to understand fasting, we will become more comfortable with it.

    The Fundamentals of Fasting Matthew 6: 16-18 We have come to a portion of Scripture that is little discussed in our day. I don’t think I have ever heard this passage preached or dealt with at length. The focus of this portion of the Sermon on the Mount is fasting. That may be something the average ...read more

    Our Thought Life

     | 1,577 views

    God wants to do a deep work on our character and He accomplishes this through changing the way that we think.

    Where do we go in order to develop character in our lives? You may have noticed that our world is simply obsessed with the outward appearance. Everywhere you turn you see advertisements for products that will make you look younger, make your skin shine, cream that will take out all your wrinkles, ...read more

    Walk In Righteousness

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 3, 2025
     | 488 views

    We live in the midst of a rapidly changing culture, one that has no desire for that which is righteous and holy. The church is being pressured to abandon the truths of Scripture in order to conform to the dictates of the culture.

    Walk in Righteousness Ephesians 5: 3-7 In our last study, Paul admonished believers to follow the Lord, literally being imitators of God. In order to accomplish such an enormous task, we must walk in the love of Christ the Lord. Those who are purposefully following the Lord and walking in the love ...read more

    based on 24 ratings
     | 5,398 views

    As we study what the Bible says about Dan Brown’s audacious claims, we come to what is perhaps the most scandolous section of the DaVinci Code -- the assertion that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene.

    Cracking the DaVinci Code: The Women in Jesus’ Life Matthew 27:55-56 Rev.

    A "Sign"? : A New View Of The Nativity Scene

    Contributed by Bryan Douglas on Dec 8, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,720 views

    God has revealed in the Christmas story a powerful "sign" of the swaddling clothes and manger which has great spiritual significance, but it has been concealed by our cultural depictions of the Nativity Scene.

    A “Sign”? : A New View of the Nativity Scene Luke 2: 1-19 As we read the Christmas story in Luke 2: 1-19, it is such a familiar passage that it is easy to just blow through it ...read more
