    So what is Jesus telling us about his kingdom? If you want to be great, become small. God isn’t looking for us to be independent, but dependent. The strongest in the kingdom of heaven is the one who realises that they have no strength themselves, but t

    Intro: My dad’s bigger than your dad! My dad’s stronger than your dad! My dad’s smarter than your dad! My dad’s faster than your dad! Does this sound familiar? The cries and taunts of childhood, usually tossed at our mortal enemies. Why did we use such words, what purpose did they serve? ...read more

    Pride is the most subtle of all sins because it feeds on our good points, normally!

    Respectable Sins – Pride What are you most proud of? Do you take pride in your work? Are you proud of your children? Pride comes into so many areas of our lives and yet very few of us would like to overhear someone say of us: “They are a proud person.” You see Pride really is one of the most ...read more

    Jesus warns against abusing His "little ones." The study of this saying becomes vital to the welfare of contemporary congregations.

    “The disciples came to Jesus, saying, ‘Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?’ And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, ‘Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this ...read more

    An Itch In The Middle Of Your Back

    Young people are often an "inconvenience" to those of us in the church. We want to do ministry to and with children and youth, but we do not want to neglect what we think is really important- the adults.

    A great way to Christ is to see the world through the eyes of young people. Too often, young people are like an itch in the middle of your back that you just can't reach. It's there and we need to do something about it, but we don't know what. We need to look at young people, children and teens, ...read more

    If we want to be a part of the Kingdom of God we need to develop childlike faith.

Illustration: The more we know of God, the more unreservedly we will trust him; the greater our progress in theology, the simpler and more childlike will be our faith (J. G. Machen). 2.

    The Greatest

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,124 views

    The analogy of the child being the greatest in God’s Kingdom was completely contrary to the prevailing culture then and now. Imagine how His disciples must have reacted to Jesus then and how indifferent it is even today.

    Opening illustration: If God was taking resumes, what would you put on yours? In other words, what makes a good Christian? What would really impress them when you arrive in heaven? Experience, qualifications, references, character traits … The reason I asked is because followers of Jesus ...read more

    Jesus’ admonition to become like a child blends with Proverbs solemn command to get wisdom. Refuse to become bland and careful; to be closed to new truth; to be cynical.

    Without question the clowns were the hits of our Vacation Bible School a month or so ago.

    Jesus did not mean that we need to act like children, but to show a few good childlike traits that can help us draw nearer to God.

    Matt. 18:1-5 In the gospels, the apostles were always wondering among themselves who would be the greatest in the kingdom of God. They would argue amongst themselves because they wanted the places of honor In Mark 9 and 10 we see two examples we’ll take note of. Mark 9:33-34 (NKJV) 33 Then ...read more
