    Numbers 12 provides a pattern which demonstrates the way dissension develops among God’s People and why. Two New Testament passages show the antidote.

    It was one of those nightmares I hope never to experience again. Our regular mid-week prayer service usually had somewhere between 6-10 people in attendance with a maximum of 4-5 cars parked alongside the church building to accommodate them.

    His Triumphal Entry

    Contributed by Shawn Miller on Mar 30, 2015
     | 8,209 views

    This passage in Luke 19 reads like a book of three chapters - The sacrifice of a colt, The praise of a crowd, and The weeping of Christ. Each point can be used as a sermon in itself.

    This is what this passage tells us.  Spiritual growth was not only a priority in the life of Jesus, it was everything.  Jesus taught us how to live a balanced life.

    “Finding Balance” Luke 2:41-52 When we look at the life of Jesus and what the Bible tells us about Him we quickly notice that the majority of what we know is from his adult life…those 3.5 years He spent in ministry. There is of course the story of his birth. Also in the gospel ...read more

    What are these “spirits in prison”? Many people reading the word “spirits” in this passage translate it in their minds to dead people who supposedly live now (as spirits) in a prison.

    1 Peter 3:19 : The spirits in prison Some time ago, I got a question from a friend of mine concerning the passage of I Peter 3:19. Let’s read this passage together with verses 18 and 20: I Peter 3:18-20 “For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us ...read more
