    Our lectionary passages this morning concern radical change, perhaps none more radical that Peter's vision in the 11th chapter of Acts. Most of us don't give much thought to what we eat and, if we do, our concern is more with calories than holiness. We don't consider food groups to be "clean" or ...read more

    Contributed by David Roth on Oct 5, 2020
     | 3,315 views

    The religious leaders of Isreal were removed from the kingdom of God because of their rejection of the prophets and of Christ. As Christians, Christ has placed us into His kingdom, that we would serve Him by handing over the fruits His righteousness produces.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. (Ps. 19:14) “From wretched to blessed” Two weeks ago, we heard Jesus tell a parable about a vineyard, and how the owner of the vineyard paid the same wage ...read more

    There are some in the Christian community that suggest that politics and religion should never work together. Some in the public square that suggest that religious leaders ought to stay out of politics and concern themselves with only the spiritual. But God has the final say on this matter!

    Leonard Sweet “The Bad Habits of Jesus” “From healing on the Sabbath, to eating with unwashed hands and touching unclean people, to declaring Himself God,” were acts of heresy to the Jewish religious scholars. Jesus was sinning against the God of the Sabbath.”
