     | 3,831 views

    Jesus died to forgive our sins, and He also helps us bear our pain and suffering, as Isaiah 53 describes. Why would we want to bear our sin and suffering alone when Jesus stands at the ready?

Part of getting ready for Easter is preparing our hearts to be able to take in what Easter is about. What is Easter about? ...read more

    These verses point out the preparations the church must make for the Kingdom if we want to see the Lord move among us in a time of power and glory. God’s “High Way” always stands in contradiction to the World’s “Low Way.”

    Isaiah 40:3-5 A High Way For Our God June 23, 2024 Isaiah is writing about the coming of the Messiah. These verses were partially fulfilled through the ministry of John the Baptist. Matthew 3:3 says In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, and saying, "Repent, ...read more

    John the Baptizer experienced severe consequences for standing for God's truth. In this interlude in Mark's Gospel we learn the lesson that discipleship is costly and we learn about people's different reactions to the truth.

Anyone who remembers the show is either old or is a radio and TV history buff. 2. “Truth or Consequences” was a long-running wild and wacky game show. 3.
