Mapalad ang mga may tainga na nilinis, nilinis, at binuksan ng Panginoon upang marinig nito ang banal na tawag; ngunit walang pagpapala para sa Kristiyano na ang espirituwal na mga tainga ay hindi aktibo.

EPHPHATHA “At dinala nila sa kaniya ang isang bingi at may kapansanan sa kaniyang pagsasalita; at ipinamamanhik nila sa kaniya na ipatong ang kaniyang kamay sa kaniya. At siya'y inihiwalay niya sa karamihan, at inilagay ang kaniyang mga daliri sa kaniyang mga tainga, at siya'y dumura, at ...read more

The Church Of Casual Christianity

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 8, 2022

Flies don’t land on a hot stove. A cold church is a dead church, but a hot church is alive.

What does it mean to be a Church of Casual Christianity? How does a church become casual? Is it speaking of the church building or the church body? Or does it refer to the church members, the individual Christians? Look at the churches depicted in Revelation 2 & 3. • Ephesus – Revelation ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 6, 2022

“I will surely show kindness to you for the sake of your father Jonathan,” is a dynamic verse of grace. The whole story of Mephibosheth is a delightful display of grace from a merciful God. Includes us too. You will love this account. It means so much.

ABOUNDING GRACE – MEPHIBOSHETH ENTERED INTO THE KINDNESS OF GRACE INTRODUCTION When you come in from a very brightly lit room where you have been for a few hours, and into a closed room where there is just one candle on a table, all is dull.

Getting In Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

So often we hear stories about dying and coming to the golden gate and dickering with Peter whether we should be allowed in or not. This would be a tragic mistake to wait until you die to find out if you can get in.

Everybody wants to get in on the action. Back in 1982 a crowd began to form one Monday afternoon in December at the River Front Coliseum in Cincinnati. By the time the police arrived at 3:00 P.M., hundreds of fans had gathered at the doors, even though they would not open until 7:00 P.M. The rock ...read more

Zacchaeus

Contributed by Lucy Paynter on Sep 7, 2019

Every time I read the gospels recounting of Jesus ministry I am amazed at how every turn, route or path Jesus took was a planned season for someone to encounter him. Jesus entered and passed through Jerico and this time it was Zacchaeus season of visitation.

Luke 19 King James Version (KJV) 19 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. 2 And, behold, there was a man named Zaccheaus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. 4 ...read more

Can A Person Interpret Scripture And Give Their Own Meaning?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 23, 2019

Some believe that the 66 books that make up the Bible are insufficient, so they continuously look for private prophetic words, dreams, or visions for a more meaningful personal experiential revelation from God. - A Multi-Part Message

There is a growing belief in the church today that a person can interpret and give their own meaning to Scripture because Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me” (John 10:27-28 ESV), as well as, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and ...read more
