    Hated For Healing Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 26, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 9,382 views

    The opposition Jesus faced continued as He sought to reveal Himself as the Christ. Sadly they failed to see Him for who He really was. Many today deny and oppose the Gospel, but we must remain committed to share!

    Hated for Healing Mark 3: 1-6 Our text today, once again finds Jesus in the synagogue on the Sabbath. While there He performed a great miracle. Unfortunately, this marvelous act of grace is overshadowed by the suspicion and animosity of the Pharisees. Our studies in chapter two revealed the ...read more

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Jan 11, 2024
     | 1,102 views

    Do we really know people even after 50 years of marriage? Jesus knows all about us and even our secret thoughts we'd like to keep secret. Jesus knew Nathanael and He knows us and has good news.

    In Jesus Holy Name January 14, 2024 Epiphany II John 1:47-48 Redeemer “Does Jesus Really Know Me?” January 6th is the Sunday of the Epiphany. The term epiphany means "to show" or "to make known" or even "to reveal." Just as the ...read more

    His Presence Or Presents

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 384 views

    Have we thought of bonding with God, getting intimate with Him and desiring His Presence more than anything else in life? God’s presence with us is one of His greatest presents to us.

    Opening illustration: Oswald Chambers once wrote: “It is not God’s promises we need, it is [God] Himself.” At Christmastime we often say, “God’s presence is more important than presents.” But the amount of time and effort we spend on shopping for gifts may indicate otherwise. In certain parts of ...read more

    Tested & Approved In Christ

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 11, 2025
     | 791 views

    The Christian’s life is similar to the Olympic Games where we are all competing to win the approval of God. Some Christian's behavior is NOT approved, most are told to work toward God's approval, and some are said to be approved while still on earth.

    TESTED & APPROVED IN CHRIST 2 Tim. 2:15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man named Bubba had a stray dog that kept showing up at his door. His wife said, “Bubba, you need to take him out in the woods and drop him off.” He did, but when he got to the house, the dog was standing on the doorstep. ...read more

    Looking For Mr. Right

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 6, 2023
     | 898 views

    Jesus wants to be loved for the right reasons.

    I expect most of you know that fear of commitment is endemic in today’s society. It's not surprising. I expect many if not most of us have experienced - or at least witnessed - bad relationships or are the children of divorce ourselves. If you've gotten burnt, you're more than a little ...read more

     | 2,522 views

    Many of us associate idolatry as simply worshiping a false god. Would it surprise you to read that within the King James Bible and the New King James Bible the words “False Idol(s)” never appear together?

    As Americans, we should be thankful for our citizenship in this great nation under God. But, Christians have dual citizenship and have been incorporated into "one new humanity" in the church of Jesus Christ.

    INTRODUCTION "One Nation Under God…" That phrase, One Nation Under God, which features so prominently in our Pledge of Allegiance has been the subject of much discussion and has become the scrutiny of many people over the last year. It all started last year when a self-avowed atheist by the name ...read more

    Feast or Famine Text: Luke 14:15-24 Introduction: There is a difference between a reason and an excuse.
