    A look at hypocrisy.

    There is a lot of teaching about WHY Christ died in the Scripture. There is a fair amount of teaching about the Resurrection. But the burial of Christ occupies a lesser role. Even so, keep in mind that it is one third of the Gospel. Although the Bible

    What a mess we are in. And we aren’t even aware of it! The whole purpose of Christmas was to respond to our need for deliverance.

    Passage: John 3:10-21 Intro: Someone has said, “Ignorance is bliss.” PP to which Thomas Gray responded, “If ignorance is bliss, tis folly to be wise.” PP Cater Burwell has continued the thread, “If not bliss, ignorance can at least be fun.” PP but Philip Wylie has ended the discussion for me: ...read more

    You might never think of yourself as worshiping your pastor. But that's just what has happening in Corinth and it happens in churches all over the world to this day. What are the dangers, how to spot it, and how to avoid it are the subject of part two in

    It had been only 18 months since Paul left his newly formed church at Corinth. A trusted family had filled him in on what had happened to this fledgling body: fights, divisions, class envy, a return to paganism, and out and out sin.

    The Corinthians had made the mistake of approaching worship like a smorgasbord. They were taking what they thought was the best and walking by what they really needed on their plates.

    This is Church not Theatre 1 Corinthians 4:1-21 Today’s scripture passage is meant as a loving correction from a father to his children. St. Paul is writing to his spiritual children in Corinth a church that he planted and now he goes about watering it. Just like the parable of (The Sower) ...read more

    Relationship with Jesus leads to real change, as it did for Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10)

    There are a lot of places the preacher can go with this text, and I suspect many of the hearers and readers will have been exposed to most of them. One of the traditional, and absolutely valid and true, expositions includes Jesus’ choice to minister to those who were outsiders. Tax ...read more

    Spiritually, the enemies of one’s goodness take careful consideration to watch one’s steps. They can only succeed in people’s lives after they had surveyed and understood your weaknesses.

    Anyone that has ever lived in a country such as Britain and in London in particular will be in a good position to understand what a surveillance society is. With progressively more electronic eyes that are increasingly intruding into private lives and with great impacts on everyday activities. It ...read more

    Jesus causes us to consider our motive in what we do and reminds us that if our inward motive from the heart is "not of God" then "not of God" is what we will get. Why do you do what you do?

    INTRODUCTION Chapter 5 began the sermon on mount with definition of “Happiness”: If you will look, and search – If you really hunger and thirst – IF you truly SEEK God with all of your heart THEN your actions will show it – And The RESULT will be “Happiness” as God defines it to be!

    Prayer And The Lord's Prayer

    Contributed by David Mcnally on Feb 24, 2014
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,112 views

    The Lord's Prayer is not a 'carved in stone' set of words that we must use, but is a good guide for how to talk to God, Who wants us to pour out of hearts to Him, but not to try to impress others by our long and fancy words and 'super-spirituality'.

    Matthew 6 verses 5 – 13 PRAYING and THE LORD'S PRAYER Jesus based his teachings, and advice, and especially his parables on things, events and situations, that would be instantly recognisable and understandable to the people He was addressing. So, when He said ‘When you pray, do not ...read more
