Part 14 - Matthew 10:18-19 - Grasshopper, Expect The Unexpected! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on May 21, 2010

I remember as a kid watching the TV series called "KUNG FU" staring David Caradine. The blind Master Po (Keye Luke) calls his young student "GRASSHOPPER" to "EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED". We are not grasshoppers but we are called to BEWARE.

Part 14 - Matthew 10:18-19 - GRASSHOPPER, EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED! A friend of mine works as a boilermaker in Bowen, Queensland Australia. He is a big man with muscles like an Olympic weight lifter, a voice that booms and a laugh that is full and infectious. PATRICK PATTERSON loves the Lord and if ...read more

Impossible

Contributed by Mari Larson on Mar 27, 2016

Throughout history, many people have had doubts about many things. It is no wonder there were doubts about the resurrection.

Throughout history, some very smart people have said some not-so-smart things, and thanks to the internet, they will never be forgotten. For example, Thomas Watson, the Chairman of IBM said in 1943, “I think there is a world market for maybe five computers.” When something new comes ...read more

Troubles And Warnings For Today! Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Sep 26, 2017

How intense are the troubles today that Jesus stated 2000 years ago and so, how serious should we heed His warnings?

We started our study of Mark Chapter 13 last week. We noted right off the bat that we humans can get so caught up with our own views that we forget God is in control. God has freely given us a life to live but we must never forget God’s view of the world we live in! I for one, have to keep myself ...read more

Root Issues

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 13, 2016

Don't nip it in the bud. Get down to the root!

The reason we are not seeing solutions to our national problems is we are only dealing with the symptoms not the root.

I Know History; I Do Not Know Myself Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 4, 2002

I know. I know the one in whom I have put my trust. ...read more
