     | 7,921 views

    Peter, like all of us, had commitment issues. He was the leader of the disciples but he denied Christ three times. He was impulsive. He cut off the ear of Malchus. But still he followed Jesus. There is hope for all of us.

    “Commitment Issues” John 18:15-18; 25-27 All of us have at least one. All of us have at least one sound; one noise that really annoys us. For some it is the sound of the dentist drilling in your mouth, for others it may be the sound of screeching tires on pavement or perhaps when kids used to rub ...read more

    Worship Jesus Only

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 13, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,303 views

    When the opinion of men supersedes the opinion of God, we are focusing too much on people; and there are believers who unknowingly worship people. But the only one whom we should be seeking to please and worship is Jesus.

    John once shared the account of some people who had denied Christ for fear of what the Pharisees would think. In John 12:42-43, He said, “Many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the praise of men more ...read more
