    "Jesus’ authority as kingly Messiah rests not in spectacle or selling-out or cutting corners, but rests on His reliance on the Father and Jesus’ costly obedience to the Father even along the road to the cross."

    “The time has come,” Jesus said, “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!” (1:15) That was Jesus’ great announcement at the beginning of his ministry in Galilee. And to the two pairs of brothers… “Come follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” ...read more

    Jesus' victory over temptation gives us hope and shows us that we can overcome too. His humility, obedience, and reliance on God's Word are examples for us to follow.

    Our church, like many churches, is in need of some repair much like the walls of Jerusalem. Nehemiah’s rebuilding began with reliance on God, repentance from sin, and risking obedience.

    Faith Is More

    Contributed by Mark Haines on Mar 12, 2007
    based on 27 ratings
     | 3,407 views

    I’m calling God’s people in my care to develop a faith in Jesus that goes beyond mental assent (belief) to include emotional reliance (trust) and active obedience (loyalty).

    Introduction: The Bible tells us that "without faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6). The Bible says, "The righteous will live by faith" (Romans 1:17). That makes me think that faith is very important -- even vital. But what is faith? The Bible commands us to "stand firm in the ...read more

     | 3,569 views

    No true child of God gets out of life without enduring some kind of pain, adversity, discomfort, or suffering. Each encounter we have with the difficulties of life need to be seen as lessons the Sovereign LORD teaches us to rely less on ourselves and more on His wisdom and grace.

    I've spent much time in thought and silent prayer, organizing in my mind and soul on how this message should be presented. I wanted to be certain that what I was about to say would be based primarily upon the Word of God and not merely a repeat of topics that I have covered in previous ...read more
