    Blessed Are The Merciful

    Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Apr 5, 2011
     | 8,148 views

    The way of the Kingdom of Jesus is one of trust in God, which frees us to be "merciful" and give to others, knowing that God is a God of justice and compassion, full of mercy and love.

    Blessed are the Merciful Apr 3, 2011 Matt 5:7 Intro: We are half-way through our Lenten journey through the Beatitudes, the opening words of Jesus’ opening sermon (“on the mount”) where Jesus describes Kingdom life.

    Afraid of God? Sure that God can't help you or won't? Think again. This text encourages to approach the throne of grace with confidence.

    3.9.25 Hebrews 4:14–16 14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest, who has gone through the heavens, namely, Jesus the Son of God, let us continue to hold on to our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been ...read more

    Do I Want God To Forgive Me As I Forgive Others? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 20, 2025
     | 395 views

    Jesus puts forward challenging words in the second half of v. 12 - calling us to ask for forgiveness in the same way we have forgiven others. Verses 14-15 emphasize the expectation from God that we will forgive others as part of having been forgiven by Him. What happens when we live this out?

    DOES THIS SCARE ME? Do I want God to forgive me as I forgive others? - Matthew 6:12b, 14-15. - I said last week as we unpacked the first half of v. 12 that we often don’t put a lot of thought into what that actually means. In that case it had to do with making confession of our sins a regular ...read more

    Jesus performs a beautiful miracle at church one day. We see it from the persepective of the Crippled woman, Christ, Critics, and the crowd.

He said, “Well, Mom, today we learned about the time when Moses was leading the people of Israel out of slavery in Egypt and across the Red Sea. They got ...read more

    The Apostle Paul's defence before King Agrippa

    My text this evening is Acts 26 and verse 28, King Agrippa’s reply to Paul where he says, “Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian?” Now these eight little words have to be the saddest ever to grace the pages of the Bible.

    As the church looks outwardly let us be people of compassion for other people.
