     | 4,145 views

    In Eph. 5:33 there is one command for men - love, but twelve directives for women to respect their husbands. Even if this is an unpopular passage it must be preached.

    The first three feasts (Passover, Unleavened Bread, and Firstfruits) on the Jewish calendar were significant to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus.

    Is It Really Legalism?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 31, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,795 views

    In many modern churches, legalism is no more than acknowledging that the Lord has given to His Church a body of legislation that He expects to be taught and obeyed.

    During my decades of Christian ministry, the terms “legalism” and “legalist” have progressively been bandied-about within modern churches and their preachers/pastors. These terms have, primarily, been used to describe and condemn those Christians and churches that believe that there is more to ...read more

    Today I want to look at an encounter between Jesus and a “Rich Young Ruler”. Kind of like Jesus meets Mark Zuckerberg. The rich seem to have everything yet this very, very rich young man knew he was missing something. What are you missing?

    What one thing do you lack? Mark 10:17-34 The Rich Young Ruler We are now just four weeks away from Easter Sunday 2018. Easter happens to be on April 1st, April Fool’s Day.
