    Being Salt Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 31, 2023
     | 2,127 views

    Immediately following the Beatitudes, Jesus turned the instruction from character qualities of his followers to their function in the world as salt and light. Matthew 5:13 warns about failing to function as salt.

    Intro We have found in our study of the Beatitudes that a certain kind of person is blessed (approved and favored by God). This follower of Christ has the same characteristics developed in him that we see in Christ. He is poor in spirit, mournful of anything that does not glorify God, meek, etc. It ...read more

    The book of Philemon portrays the love of God through the relationship between Paul and a runaway slave named Onesimus. Similarly, Christ's love for his church is evident in his prayer in the garden where he asked God to receive his church the way he would receive him.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Philemon 1:10-16) (10) "I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:" (11) "Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:" (12) ...read more

    We will see that in our passage this evening Jesus asked for only two things. He asked that He may glorify the Father in what was about to happen. And that God would restore His Son to His former glory.

    Tonight’s passage begins the High Priestly Prayer of Jesus. Jesus’ time had come. His death on the cross was quickly upon Him.

    Discerning God's Voice: Does It Honor God?

    As God's creation, our lives are supposed to point to the glory of our Creator. God calls us to live for His glory. And it's in His glory that we find our greatest purpose.

    This passage is flooded with information about the connections between the Father, the Son, and the disciples. What specifically can we learn from it?

    - [Probably best to do on a Wednesday evening – lots of points.] - This passage is dense. Lots going on. It’s deep and complex. - One of the things worth pulling from this passage: there is an almost overwhelming about of information on the connections between Father, Son, and the disciples. - ...read more

    Jesus Christ, Our Great High Priest

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 13, 2022
     | 1,869 views

    On the last night of Jesus' life before going to the cross, He spent time with the Father in prayer, serving as our great High Priest making intercession with God the Father on our behalf (Hebrews 3:1, 6:20). This "high priestly" prayer warrants our attention.

    So far in John's gospel, we have encountered glorious portraits of the life, work, and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ that give "many convincing proofs" (Acts 1:3) of HIs divinity and godly authority which no one else can ever claim. He healed the sick, raised the dead, fed the ...read more

    The Prayer Of Love Series

     | 12,205 views

    John 17 is the longest prayer of Jesus in the entire Gospels. It's sometimes referred to as Christ's High Priestly prayer... but I regard that as being a far too sterile description of what is truly Jesus' prayer of love for His bride.

    Children have very simple views of life… and of love. The following are children’s views on the topic of love. A 7 year old said – “If falling love is anything like learning how to spell, I don’t want to do it. It takes too long.” A 5 year old boy – “Once I’m in kindergarten, I’m going to find me ...read more
