The Value Of Death Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

By rough estimate I counted 750 references to death and dying in my concordance of the Bible. If we are to live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, then no Christian can be honest with God's word and ignore the subject of death.

There are two subjects that men have tended to be shy about all through history. These two subjects have been considered off limits as topics of public conversation. It was taboo to speak of them openly. The two subjects are, sex and death. The paradox of this is, there are no two more ...read more

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 13, 2011

The sounds of the city snatches away our attention and the persistent voice of Christ’s love fights to be heard above the collective sighs of our APATHY. Just like the parable of the Sower and the Soils.

Matthew 13:10-17 – HOW TO GUAGE YOUR SPIRITUAL APATHY – Part 3 We visited the Opera House in Sydney not long ago. Thousands of people on foot!

Lowered Expectations Of Jesus

Contributed by Aaron Holbrough on Feb 12, 2013

Some of us have to lower our expectations in order to find what we are looking for, others of us need to change them completely

Most of us have high expectations of Jesus, but Mark chapter 2 records a story of a man who has lowered expectations….literally. One thing we quickly learn is that Jesus doesn’t care to meet expectations, only needs. It a ridiculous account of a guy who is carried by four of his ...read more

The Shocking Demands Of Jesus Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 10, 2021

A culture obsessed by sensory suggestion refuses to admit categories of transformation. But that is what Jesus Christ intends to do, and we desperately need Him to do it.

Monday of 15th week in course For Catholics raised on family values, Matthew’s transmission of Jesus’ words today are something shocking.

How To Overcome Slavery To Sin

Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000

Too many people are in bondage to their negative thinking, irrational assumptions and sinful tendencies.

Many people start well but finish poorly. In Judges 2:11-23 we see how Israel began well but gave into a cycle of sin and slavery. The pattern is repeated seven times in the book of Judges over a 350 year period. This cycle of slavery to sin points out the truth of Galatians 6:6 which says, "Be not ...read more
