    based on 94 ratings
     | 5,300 views

    Compares real love with "Britney-love" (the 55-hour-marriage in Las Vegas" kind of love) to discover the differences. What does the Bible say is the foundation of built-to-last relationships? *HANDOUT*

    1Co 13:1 ¶ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have ...read more

    The Submissive Sovereign

     | 6,803 views

    While in the Upper Room, just hours prior to the Crucifixion, Jesus humbled Himself, assuming the position of a slave to wash the disciples' feet. Although He knew their hearts, He washed the feet of each one.

    The Submissive Sovereign John 13: 1-5 I am well aware that all Scripture was given by inspiration of God, through the Holy Spirit for our benefit; but this is one of those passages that almost seems too holy for mere mortals to impose upon. Our Lord is in his last hours upon this earth. Very soon ...read more

    Commandments Would Talk With You!

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Aug 10, 2015
     | 2,487 views

    When you bind the Word of God on your heart always and tie them around your neck, then they would lead you, guide you and also protect you in the quiet, dark hours of the night.

    Commandments would talk with you! Proverbs 6:22”…. When you are awake, they will talk with you.” Talk with you! I’m today not talking about the whole gamut of worthless people who are talking with you, but this is about the ‘Commandments that would talk with ...read more

    Party On! Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 31, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,754 views

    We all know that there were parties last evening, some that lasted well into the morning hours. But I venture to say that these parties were not celebrations of religious faith, such as the ones implied by today’s Scriptures.

    Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God Party On! Today’s Scriptures are so brief that if our minds are not focused, we might not remember any of them. I’ve wondered if that was an act of mercy on the part of those who back in the 1960's put together the three-year cycle of readings, and saw New ...read more

     | 996 views

    Most mothers have known the pain of having to place their babies in a day-care facility for the first time and knowing they would have to be away from them for eight or nine hours while they went to work.

    Illus: Recently one mother, who had to do this with her first baby, explained that she began to cry as she wrapped that little eight-pound boy up in his warm blanket to get him ready for the day-care. She said that throughout the day she was constantly wondering what he was doing. Jesus knows ...read more

     | 2,679 views

    Moreover, the deaths occurred "at midnight," in the weirdest hour, at the quietest time, and in the deepest darkness. So it had been prophesied (Exodus 11:4), but the particular night had not been announced.

    The Firstborn Are Slain. Exodus 12:29-30. 29 At midnight, the LORD struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all the livestock as well. 30 Pharaoh and all his ...read more

    Joseph Of Arimathea: A Cowardish And Blessed Man

     | 535 views

    While Jesus was still alive, Joseph did nothing for Jesus. However, at the right time, when he only had three hours before the Sabbath, he could take care of Jesus’ body.

    The story of Jesus’ death and burial that we will discuss today is recorded in all four Gospels. This shows the significance of this event. Let’s read Mark 15:33-47. Verse 33 – “At noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon.” Jesus was crucified at nine in the morning. ...read more

     | 10,909 views

    God often allows trouble and trials to come into the life of His children. The life of Paul provides us with great insight into dealing with the thorns of life.

    THE THORNS OF LIFE 2 CORINTHIANS 12:1-10 Introduction: God often allows trouble and trials to come into the life of His children. God could have kept Daniel out of the lions’ den. He could have kept Job from Satan’s assault. He could have kept the three Hebrew children out of the fiery furnace. ...read more

    True peace only comes from Jesus and only to those who believe on Him. This is a peace that allows us to have peace in the midst of trials.

    I Give You MY Peace John 14:23-29 It was a confusing time. Jesus with the disciples had come to Jerusalem. They had seen the joyous crowds a few days earlier on Palm Sunday, Their expectations of the disciples that Jesus would immediately take charge and set up the Messianic Kingdom and take the ...read more

    God resists the proud.That demon of pride was born with us, and it will not die one hour before us. None of us are invisible to this ancient enemy.Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God(1 Peter 5:6).

    PRIDE “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” (1 Peter 5:5) God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). The love of God is beyond our understanding. He ...read more

    In this passage, Jesus knows what is in store for Him. He knows that within just a few short hours, He would be beaten and bruised and hung on an old rugged cross. He knows the tremendous task that lies ahead. So He knows He must urgently prepare.

    1. Urgently prepare in solitude 2. Urgently prepare in sorrow 3. Urgently prepare in submission 4. Don’t prepare by sleeping What would you do if you knew what was going to happen to you tomorrow? If, somehow, some way it was possible for you to look into the future—what would you do?
