    No one wants to live in a lie, however, as a believing being, many men live with corrupt beliefs that influence their thoughts and actions.

    So I’d like to begin with a quote today. From A.W. Tozer. He says, “What comes into our minds when we think about God, is the most important thing about us.

    Crisis: Dangerous Opportunity

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 14, 2001
    based on 39 ratings
     | 5,264 views

    Jesus precipitated a crisis for others around Him: for Judas, for the disciples, for Peter. Their reactions are like ours -- confused -- but Jesus knows who He is in the midst of the crisis.

    I’m sure that you have heard many times now that the Chinese character that is usually translated by the English word “crisis” is actually made up of two components – one character that means “dangerous” and the other that means “opportunity.” Put “dangerous” and “opportunity” together, and you ...read more

    John 12 brings us a perplexing situation. Is Jesus giving the green light to personal jets for evangelists who preach the prosperity gospel? Or is there another point altogether?

    John 12:1-8 “Did His Feet Smell that Bad?” By: Ken Sauer, Pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN I must admit, this can be a very perplexing passage of Scripture. Wouldn’t it just be easier to ignore it? Of course, if we ignore it… …we loose the incredible insight ...read more
