    John wondered about Jesus. He had just gotten done preaching how Messiah would come in power and judgment, instead of cleaning house Jesus is preaching love your enemies and turn the other cheek. It is little wonder John had doubts!

    Road Signs Of Danger

    I have called this sermon “ROAD SIGNS OF DANGER”, because the Christian life is similar to traveling down a road. Illus: Have you ever traveled down a road and you came to a road sign that indicated that a curve was ahead? Once you got to the curve, it was so sharp that you could almost see your ...read more
