    There are two kinds of Christians, those who follow rules and those who follow Chirst--which are you?

    Today’s gospel is from Luke 9, the account of Jesus’ transfiguration. But I would like to juxtapose that reading with an Old Testament text from Exodus. I read the Exodus passage first: The LORD said to Moses, "Come up to me on the mountain and stay here, and I will give you the tablets of ...read more

    This sermon looks at the command of loving those of the household of faith, conflict in the church and restoration of those who stumble.

He followed up by saying that the second greatest commandment draws from the first – love your neighbor as ...read more

    Through the cross, Christ provided salvation for those who are lost and an example of service for those who are saved.

    As we conclude our Character Tour of the Old Testament, we're looking to the example of Jesus, who shows us what it means to serve God. This is important, because of the command Christ has given to us: "As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." - John 20:21 (NIV) As we consider the example ...read more

    A reward for those who welcome Jesus' disciples. A warning for those who lead them astray.

    A SEQUENCE OF SAYINGS. Mark 9:38-50. 1. John informed Jesus of “one casting out devils in Your name; and we forbad him because he follows not with us” (Mark 9:38). Perhaps John’s jealousy was fired by the failure of the nine members of the team who - whilst Jesus, Peter, James and John ...read more

    Jesus came to heal those sick with sin. That means the church is meant to be a hospital for those weighed down with guilt. But what can a church do better heal those lost in their shame?

    A Russian soldier was wounded and was ordered to go to military hospital for treatment. When he arrived he found two doors: One was marked, ‘For the slightly wounded,’ and the other, ‘For the seriously wounded’. Well, he wasn’t seriously wounded so he entered through the first door and found ...read more

    Happy are those harassed for the faith.

    Because we are enjoying so much religious freedom here in our country, we tend to forget about persecuted Christians elsewhere in the world.
