    Jesus came as our high priest, not to substitute a relationship with God, but to facilitate a relationship with God. He is our way to a personal relationship with God.

    How many knows that in every day life, the moment you say this is personal, everything goes to a different level. You may be casually visiting and joking around, and sharing things with little thought. But when someone says this is personal, the time for casual joking is over. Now it's ...read more

    Was the Mosaic law good or bad? Why did God give it to Israel, and what part did it play for His people?

    OPEN: Why do laws exist? Why do we have them? I thought about that a lot this week…and this was my conclusion: “Laws exist to modify behavior and to help us know what is acceptable and what isn’t.” Now, if that’s true, why were these laws written? In Michigan it is illegal to paint sparrows to ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 16, 2020
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,206 views

    The LGBTQIA+ community has raised the argument that the word ‘homosexual’ never appeared in the Bible until 1946

    Before we begin, it is important to note that Jesus is God, and as God, that makes Him the author of both the Old and New Testaments and He does not change (John 1:1-5; Psalm 15:4; Malachi 3:6; James 1:17). Either “All Scripture is breathed out by God (i.e. Jesus) and profitable for teaching, for ...read more

     | 12,772 views

    At the very instant Jesus died, the massive veil before the Holy of Holies was suddenly torn in half from top to bottom.The sound of the veil tearing must have been deafening. Imagine the priests hearing it, feeling the earthquake, etc. What could it mean?

    The Lukewarm Church Of Laodecia

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Nov 17, 2019
     | 4,348 views

    Lukewarmness is like a dud bomb. Accomplishes not a thing. Jesus Christ prefers us to be passionately against God or, much better, passionately for God. And He disciplines us because He loves us so very much. Thanks to William Barclay's insights which are reflected throughout this message.

    November 17 Sermon - The Churches of Revelation - Laodicea So we have come to the end of our look at the churches of Revelation, today being the last day. And it’s been a fascinating journey to see some of the challenges that the early church faced, and how Jesus directly, through this ...read more
