     | 2,339 views

    The disciples jockey for #1. Just like in the Kentucky Derby. Jesus reminds them to be humble, trusting as a little child. People graspe for greatness... So did Adam and Eve,

    God is looking for a people who serve Him freely; who worship Him voluntarily; who love Him as a reflex of the heart. NOT because they cannot choose anything else, but because they decide FOR Him. No other voice can truly tell how great and worthy God is

    “Pierce My Ear” On the last two Sunday mornings I’ve been talking to you about our freedom in Christ. This week, on our television screens, most of us would have witnessed a striking picture of what freedom looks like. I’m talking about the liberation of Kabul in Afghanistan. For the past five ...read more

    There is a place God calls us to daily; and He has opened the way for us to come.

    There is a place into which believers of old never dared tread...where only the High Priest went once each year, and then, with much fear and trembling. It is now the place that God calls all believers to; willing that we should come, not in fear, but boldly, for access has been provided to us ...read more

    God urges us to consider four elements of the Lord’s victory: 1) His triumphant sin-bearing, 2) sermon, 3) salvation, and 4) supremacy.

    On the events of this week, John Piper noted: All of us have sinned against God, not just against man. This is an outrage ten thousand times worse than the collapse of the 35W bridge. That any human is breathing at this minute on this planet is sheer mercy from God. God makes the sun rise and the ...read more

    Every Born-Again Christian has the anointing of God which provides the ability to have an intimate relationship with Him

    The word 'anointing' is one of the most misunderstood and misused words in the church. It is often taught as if the anointing is something that people can 'feel' when the 'anointing' is in the room. People go to 'spiritual' teachers who have declared they have a ...read more

    Ever wished you could have prevented a great tragedy? Just as there are great physical tragedies with lasting consequence, so there are great spiritual tragedies with eternal consequence. The Apostle Paul seeks to prevent a great spiritual tragedy in the fledgling church at Corinth, Greece.

    How many of you here have been associated with a preventable tragedy? What I'm talking about here are bad things that happened to people you knew or know which could have been prevented. These bad things would not have happened if someone hadn't been ignorant or naïve, or ...read more
