    Born Again To See And Conquer!

    Contributed by Victor Ramlall on Mar 7, 2015
     | 4,992 views

    It's not the wise and sophisticated intellectuals admired and looked up to in the world, who are foremost in the kingdom. We need to be born again as a little child into the Kingdom of God, relying on Him always!

    At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the ...read more

    The Greatest

    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

    This message looks at the cost and return on investing in the lives of children.

    Have you ever stepped on a piece of Lego, in the dark?  Have you ever wondered how something so small that provides so much enjoyment can cause so much pain? Well, you’re in luck, because I’m going to explain the science behind the pain.  There are basically four reasons that are wrapped up in ...read more

    Childlike, But Not Childish

    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

    A Biblical understanding of Stewardship: God gives generously (faith, salvation, eternal life, forgiveness, etc) and by God's Holy Spirit, we may also give generously.

    Grace, mercy, peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Today is Stewardship Sunday. Today is the day that, and let me be straight forward with you, today is the day that we talk about money. About giving, about generosity. But I’m not going to try and guilt you ...read more

    Beatitudes mean declarations of blessedness. If we were asked ‘what does it mean to be blessed’, our answers would not be what we find here in this list. But we know our way of thinking contrasts God’s way. The beatitudes reveal what our attitude should be.

    THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT (part one) Read intro in study bible. Beatitudes mean declarations of blessedness. Blessed means more than just happy, since happiness is dependent on circumstances. Blessedness refers to the ultimate well being and distinctive spiritual joy of those who are saved. In all ...read more

    Truly, to the extent we adopt the humble attitude of a child, we will attain greatness in the kingdom of the Father. But what does that really mean?

    When you realize that Jesus did not cancel God’s Law, but completes it, that it continues today, and that you have to keep every part of it from the heart, there is only one thing you can do to be "good enough" for God's Kingdom and that’s count on Jesus.

    Through his humor, Bill Waterson has a way to make you think about life.

    A humble heart is the bedrock of any meaningful relationship with God.

    Humility, Yielding, Surrender Throughout scripture we see a truth that is the bedrock of our relationship with God: a humble heart. It’s a heart that finds joy in yielding and surrendering its will and desires to God’s will and desires. Sadly, this doesn’t appeal to many in the Body of Christ ...read more

    Ministers are reluctant to preach on humility. How do we promote humility without sounding like we think we’ve attained it? Needless to say, my sermon title isn’t “Humility and how I found it.” We are all "works-in-progress".

    Winston Churchill was reviling a political opponent at a press conference. A reporter interrupted him asking, “But surely, Mr. Churchill, you must admit that he is a humble, modest man?” To which Churchill replied: “He is a humble man, but then he has much to be humble about!” Ministers are ...read more

    A call to humility. A warning against stumbling blocks. Lost sheep found.

    AS A LITTLE CHILD. Matthew 18:1-14. 1. The disciples came to Jesus, openly and unashamedly asking, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” (Matthew 18:1).
