    The Price Of Discipleship

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 17, 2015
     | 6,076 views

    We often preach on salvation given so freely, but do we take the time to look at the price we have to pay to be a disciple?

    The Price of Discipleship Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem, a journey that he knew would end with him being crucified, and yet many of those following him thought he was on his way to establish his Kingdom in the capital city. Sometimes I wonder if Jesus ever wanted to say: “What ...read more

    God can take even our smallest prayers and turn them into great success as in the case of freeing Peter from Herod's prison.

     | 7,296 views

    Jesus has many casual fans, but He asked us to take up our cross and be a follower. It costs something to be a true disciple.

    TITLE: Not a Fan but a Follower TEXT: Mark 8:27-38 INTRO: A soldier was frantically digging in during battle as shells fell all around him. Suddenly his hand felt something made of metal and he grabbed it. It was a silver cross. Another shell exploded and he buried his head in his arms. Just then, ...read more

    The ratification of the old covenant did not take place without blood. But it took the blood of Christ to bear away our sins, once and forever!

    NOT WITHOUT BLOOD. Hebrews 9:15-28. In continuing to compare and contrast the old covenant and the new, we have seen how the high priest would enter the ‘Holiest of All’ (Hebrews 9:3), alone, once a year (on the Day of Atonement) ‘not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the ...read more

    Unseen Persons And Their Works Series

     | 4,109 views

    Effective faith involves being aware of the supernatural. It recognises that God Himself is a Spirit and that the most important things take place in the spirit realm.

    The bible shows us that there are unseen personalities and operations around us. Some of them are working for us while some are working against us. Some want our good while some want to harm us in whatever way they can. This does not have to make anyone nervous, it should only stir us to become ...read more
