    Here is a great story, full of drama, of desperation, of the bringing down of the walls of racism and pride.

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 7, 2010
    based on 24 ratings
     | 11,829 views

    Why is the F*** word and and the Sh** word used so freely today? Jesus doesn’t directly include this in what He says about oaths in Matthew 5 but it is there by way of application and other passages enlarge on this area of sin, so I am taking a detour.

    Making a choice to serve Jesus (Luke 16:1-13)

    This is one of the more difficult passages of Luke’s Gospel, and the interpretation of it divides commentators and preachers. What are we to make of it? I think the key to it is, once again, to look at it in the context of the central theme of Luke’s Gospel – what does it mean to ...read more

    Them Dry Bones

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,101 views

    There is something about being surrounded by death that makes us contemplate life in a very honest way. God uses a kind of cemetery full of bones to illustrate the need for the Holy Spirit in our lives.

    Them Dry Bones Ezekiel 37:1-12 Acts 2:17 NIV In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Joel 2:28 NIV [ The Day of the LORD ] And afterward, I will pour out my ...read more

     | 3,902 views

    Are we ministers of life unto life experiencing the power of God to win souls and edify the saints? Or are we morticians just dressing the corpse and polishing the casket?

    The Opinions Of Churchianity

     | 4,523 views

    There is no room in the Church for legalism. In love, we must get along with (and be more understanding of) fellow believers since we are all at different levels of understanding in our faith journey.

    WHEN IT COMES TO LEGALISM, I LIKE WHAT AUTHOR, MAX LUCADO, WROTE WHEN HE SAID, “LEGALISM HAS NO PITY ON PEOPLE. LEGALISM MAKES MY OPINIONYOUR BURDEN, MAKES MY OPINION YOUR BOUNDARY, MAKES MY OPINION YOUR OBLIGATION.” I LIKE THAT! WE HAVE ALL BEEN, AT SOME POINT, NOT ONLY A WITNESS TO, ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 21,700 views

    The “little ones” Jesus refers to are frequently the scapegoats or victims in our society. They are the powerless, the weak, the hurting, the abused, the abandoned, the elderly or children, and they are often the easiest targets for our wrath.

    Christians throughout the centuries, in response to the challenge of this passage from Matthew’s Gospel, have tried to help people in need, and in the process have made a better world. We, and they, will reap the reward of our earthly actions.
