    based on 109 ratings
     | 8,142 views

    Paul uses the story of Ishmael and Isaac and their mothers to demonstrate that the Galatian believers were in danger of abandoning the Gospel of grace in Jesus, with fascinating contrasts historically and allegorically, ever relevant for today.

    THE SPIRITUAL SAGA OF ISHMAEL AND ISAAC The most casual reader of the Bible will notice that the Scriptures consist of 2 sections - the Old and New Testaments. But have you ever thought how are they related to each other? Someone made the interesting comment about the 2 Testaments that ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,834 views

    This message opens up Paul’s spirtual mindset in refuting the religous self confident Jews. He explain despite the Law despite the covenant of circumcision how they too have fallen short of Gods standards in a game of spot the difference.

    Romans 2:17 -3:8 Spot the difference • Have you ever played spot the difference? You can usually spot the difference quite easily because all the differences are on the outside but when it comes to our standing before God, it is a little bit harder to spot the difference because the difference is ...read more

    This is a very disturbing story where a woman, at her wits end, was actually ignored by Jesus, who favoured the Jews. Why? God ticks Jesus off here. Did Jesus sin here? It certainly needs investigation.
