    Paul addresses his critics directly and highlighted a few lessons. A true ministry does not draw attention to himself, commits to the work God assigns and lives for the audience of One, his Lord.

    2 Cor 10:7-18 The True Measure of a Minister 2 Cor 10:7-18 – Paul addressing his critics 7Look at what is before your eyes. If anyone is confident that he is Christ’s, let him remind himself that just as he is Christ’s, so also are we. 8For even if I boast a little too much of our authority, ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 1, 2023
     | 2,325 views

    Paul commands the Thessalonians not to quench the Spirit. We will consider that and the ministry of the Holy Spirit, and the use of gifts given to every believer. Biblical prophecies are not to be despised through neglect or misappropriation. Victory in storms.

     | 3,433 views

    There is an all out attack against hope in the hearts and minds of believers. We must have hope against hope. We need a ministry of HOPE GIVERS in the church and the family. Hope is an essential.

    In his closing remarks, we see the heart of Paul. He meets the practical needs of the saints. he plans but submits to God's leading. He cares for those in ministry.

     | 921 views

    Paul arrived at Ephesus and tried to share the Gospel with the Jews in the synagogue. After they rejected him, Paul found another place to teach. He also found a ministry of healing in Ephesus, too.

    Introduction: Paul had just arrived in Ephesus and had finished ministering to a group of men who claimed to be disciples of John the Baptist (verses 1-7). Now he’s moving on into his pattern, “to the Jew first, and also to the Greek (or Gentile, Romans 1:16)”. There’s another pattern, so to ...read more

    It is the “final story in Jesus’ public teaching ministry” and only Matthew shares it with us. There are two groups in this passage: those who go into eternal life; those who go into eternal death.

    You Did It For Me Matthew 25:31-46 Introduction We have been studying some of the judgment parables found toward the end of Matthew. The judgment parables offer surprises / great reversals. The last shall be first. Many are invited, Few are chosen. Keep watch, for we do not know the hour. ...read more

    Perspectives Of A Tentmaker

    Contributed by Ed Lu on Dec 17, 2024
     | 439 views

    Just as Paul brings a perspective as God’s instrument in both his occupation and ministry, similarly we have a calling to live out our purpose for the people we are responsible for.

    Perspectives of a Tentmaker 1 Timothy 6:1-10 What kind of bosses do you work for? What type of a boss do your employees think about you? As for me, I had many.

    As you consider the life and ministry of Jesus, what comes to mind? What was His purpose for coming to the earth? He came with purpose – a purpose ordained of God, the Father before the foundation of the world.

    The Gospel of the Kingdom Mark 1:14-15 “When you hear the bells ringing out at Christmas, think of the reason why Jesus was born. Dream not that He came to load your tables and fill your cups, but in your mirth look higher than all earth-born things. When you hear that in certain churches there ...read more

     | 883 views

    We are vulnerable to the Potholes and speed breakers on our spiritual journey. The people who are committed for full time ministry are very much inclined to fall on daily basis. There are sins of Contamination and condemnation.

    Text: 1 Corinthians 10:1-14 Theme: “Our Daily Spiritual struggles”   Observation from the Text: 1 Corinthians 10:1-14: Please note the following words in this passage: Not be ignorant (1), spiritual rock (4), God was not well pleased (5), lust after evil things (6), sat to eat, drink and ...read more

    Throughout His earthly ministry, Jesus consistently defied expectations. Whether it was the religious leaders of the day, the multitudes, or even His own disciples, Jesus was always more than people anticipated.

     | 418 views

    Our commentary on Matthew continues with Jesus' testimony about the ministry of John the Baptist and the promise of judgment upon the unbelieving cities who witnessed HIs work yet did not repent.

    Matthew 11 begins with what is referred to as a "transitional" passage (v.1). While the disciples were going around the countryside doing the work that Jesus had commissioned, He continued to preach in the cities in Galilee. Verses 2-3 describe how John the Baptist had been thrown into ...read more

    Commissioning Service: This message explores a significant ministry, as it looks at the "missionary call." To be discussed is the role played by God, and also the commitment required of the home church in the missionary’s support.

    During the Battle of Britain in the summer of 1940, Winston Churchill said of the brave men of the Royal Air Force, “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.” A similar statement could be made concerning the missionaries from our churches. Compared to the larger ...read more
