    God is delighted and able to take the misfits and rejected of society, and patiently turn them into world shakers and world changers for the Kingdom of God! All he needs is a surrendered and committed life.

    The Word of God speaks with a clear and loud voice. When we reject the Truth, then it is all riddles and parables. When we believe, the Truth is heard clearly again.

    What Was Jesus Saying (WWJS)? John 7:25-36 Introduction In our last several messages from the seventh chapter of John, we have noted that it happened at the Feast of Tabernacles about six months before the crucifixion.

    Jesus in bringing life to someone who was dead causes the plot to kill Him but little did they know that the very plot they conjured up to kill Him will bring about eternal life.

    47 Then the leading priests and Pharisees called a meeting of the high council. They said, “What should we do? This man is doing many miraculous signs. 48 If we let him continue doing these things, everyone will believe in him. Then the Romans will come and take away our Temple and our ...read more
