Ackowledge Your King Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Apr 10, 2022

Palm Sunday reminds us that the message of the cross, the message of salvation, must be set in the context of Jesus being king. And we must recognize Jesus as the king he is, not the king we might like him to be.

In a typical year about 3.5 million people visit Jerusalem. It’s one of the most historic cities in the world. It has been continuously inhabited since about 1,800 B.C. So it’s been worth visiting for a VERY long time! But in the time of Jesus, there were certain times of the year when Jews had ...read more

Give Us A King

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022

This passage shares the account of a church that is looking at what the church down the road is doing. The pastor (Samuel) tries to lead this church (Israel) according to God’s will, but the congregation won’t heed his counsel.

As we look at this chapter of 1 Samuel today, there unfolds a scene that can be applied to discussing the goal of churches today. What is the vision of some churches? Do churches think in a Christ-centered manner, or do they think in a worldly manner? What I mean is this: Are churches today ...read more

The Palm Sunday King

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 23, 2021

Have a song of praise on your lips for Jesus. Be ready to go out of your way to honour him. In your life, find the equivalent of coats that you can humbly lay on the road before him. In your life, find the equivalent of branches that you can wave in the air to praise him!

Every year again there’s a day on our calendars called Palm Sunday. It always falls on the last Sunday before the Easter weekend, when the church remembers Good Friday and Easter Sunday. But unlike for those other important days, we may not really understand what Palm Sunday is all about. Sure, we ...read more

Jesus, Priest And King Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 16, 2021

The grace won by Jesus on the cross is infinite, and therefore enough to redeem every human being, liberating us all from slavery to sin.

Monday of 2nd Week in Course 2021 “Son though [Jesus] was, he learned obedience from what He suffered, and when He was made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey Him.” That word, “perfect,” really confused me when I was a kid.

Counting The Cost Of A King Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Sep 24, 2022

Israel demanded a king and rejected God as their king. God made a new covenant with King David. In David’s offspring a king would rule forever. Israel rejected God but they did not thwart his sovereign purposes for man. In Jesus Christ both the Sinai covenant and David’s covenant are fulfilled.

It is tragic when we give something more priority than we give God. Sporting events can develop character and teach young people positive lessons but if that sport ever came between that person and God, it is wrong. Even humanitarian projects which are serving human need in a ministry, if they ...read more

Support From A King Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 3, 2022

Those who spend their efforts to destroy God’s work are fighting for a lost cause. God will Triumph. A little faith overcame opposition. Through faith the Israelites overcame apathy. There is so much we can do as Christians with the Holy Spirit through faith.

The noted 18th century French Philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) was a renowned Atheist.

We Want A King Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 15, 2021

Long before the British royalty, the Bible tells the story of Israel’s royalty. Yet, many of us know so much less about Israel’s royal line than England’s royal line.
