Carried To Jesus!

Jesus The Struggler Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 21, 2016

Sometimes we so emphasize that Jesus is the Son of God (fully divine) that we forget He is also the Son of Man (fully human). At Gethsemane, we see Jesus’ human nature struggling with the perfect will of God — for our sakes!

Jesus the Struggler (Mark 14:32-42) 1. We all do goofy things. “Today, I took a picture of the combination to my new lock so I would always have it on my phone if I ever forgot it. I put my phone in my gym locker, locked it with the new lock, then promptly forgot the combination.” 2. ...read more

Folded By Jesus

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023

What it means to be folded is, to beat someone up, or the newer past tense version of that, to receive a beat-down. Now Jesus does not physically beat any one up, but He sure delivers a spiritual pounding.

Folded by Jesus Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the ...read more

The resurrection is the very central point and essence of Christianity. It is “of first importance” of the Christian faith. That essence and the importance is captured beautifully in For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the ...read more
