    The disciples on the road to Emmaus had their eyes opened when the bread was broken. The songwriter wrote, "at the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light..." The cross opens our eyes.

    Johyn 8. Nicky Cruz was the leader of the toughest gang in New York City. His Satanist parents abused him brutally, so he grew up a hardened man void of love and full of hate. “I wanted to do to others what my mother did to me,” Nicky says. “I used to feel good when I hurt people.” But privately, ...read more

    Whose child are you?

    I certainly do not want to imply any disrespect for one of the greatest hymn writers of the church; Charles Wesley, who gave us, among many others, such grand tributes to the majesty of God as “And Can it Be”, and “Christ the Lord is Risen Today” and “O, For a Thousand Tongues to Sing”.

    God gives eternal life and joy to those who die “in the Lord.”

    Scripture Introduction The relationship between Jesus and the religious leadership continues to deteriorate. By refusing to acknowledge their importance, his ministry threatens their power and prestige. Therefore, they turn on him: attempted arrest, entrapment, theological tests, dismissing his ...read more

    As people respond to Mel Gibson’s film, there is one truth that must be made clear: Neither the Jews nor the Romans had power to put Christ to death apart from His voluntary act. "No man takes my life from Me. I have power to lay it down and to take it ag

    Some people will believe early, some later. We are to remain faithful in praying for and witnessing to those who have not believed in Jesus.

    Ill. Persistence * Proverbs 3:5-6 basically says “Trust in God, Stop trying to fit God into your logic. Just look for His hand around you, and then that Hand will guide you.” * But I say, “Lord, that is how I try to live, but…” * What about those we are praying for?

    I Am The Light Of The World Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 4, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,267 views

    What does it mean when Jesus says He is the Light of the World? He spoke to a culture thoroughly verse in the Old Covenant, and so to understand the significance of His words, we will need to explore what the people heard when He spoke.

    ”Again Jesus spoke to [the Jewish leaders], saying, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.’ So the Pharisees said to him, ‘You are bearing witness about yourself; your testimony is not true.’ Jesus answered, ‘Even if I do bear ...read more

    Just how much does Jesus know about you and what does he do with that information? A woman and some Pharisees find out but his response is very different between those who need forgiveness and those who want it.

    In the movie "Conspiracy Theory" Mel Gibson believes that the government knows all kinds of things about him and are tracking his every move so that he doesn’t uncover some super secret plot they are trying to cover up. For most of the movie you believe that Gibson is just plan wacky but then all ...read more

    Search For Utopia And Light

    It’s the message that needs to be proclaimed to the world. Man’s search for an earthly deliverer or Messiah is futile. Man’s earthly search for utopia is futile.

    Tonight’s study will not be as long as others have been. We are only going to look at 4 verses tonight. READ. Jesus has just tried to explain to the Pharisees that He is the Light of the world. Of course they didn’t believe it. The Pharisees had just asked Jesus to show them His ...read more

    Best summed up by a D.A. Carson quote: ¡§Jesus does not merely bring his Father¡¦s message; Jesus is the message, He is the Word.¡¨

    Let's understand the context¡KJesus has just claimed to be the ¡§Light of the world,¡¨ and His critics are outraged at such audacity. They¡¦d like to yell, ¡§Who do you think you are!¡¨ but He just got finished telling them who He was. His self-disclosure is indeed outrageous if it isn¡¦t true. ...read more
