    Generally, those appointed to the Master’s service should be respected by all Christians, though that seldom works out in practise. The Apostles, the prophets and even those who have served as preachers of the Word, are often maligned and despised by the

    “Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God. Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself. We also add our testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.” Modern Christians are poorly ...read more

    Those who would serve the interests of God can do so by giving expression to joy in their lives. Those who feel God’s love have much to offer the hurting and disconnected in our world.

    We all have certain core traditions and beliefs that are important to us. They make us who we are, they define our own behaviours and the way we think other people should behave. That is what lies behind the Gospel passage from Mark that we heard a few minutes ago. As usual, the Pharisees and ...read more

    The One True Living God is a God of love, indeed, but He is also a fearsome God of Wrath to those who would rebuff Him, and a respect-worthy Father who chastens those whom He calls sons.

    Those called of God are to use their spiritual authority to build people up & not to tear down. Those who have been granted authority in Christ have within them the ability to call forth the true exercise of authority.

    2 CORINTHIANS 10: 7-11 [GAINING PERSPECTIVE Series] A DEFENSE OF GOD GIVEN AUTHORITY As I read these words, I am appalled at the attacks that were leveled at Paul and the pain he must have felt. What spiritual battles he must have fought yet he still maintained the meekness and gentleness of ...read more

    What will our destiny be? It will be what God designed it to be - an eternity of joy for those who love & follow Him; & an eternity of separation for those who reject His love & turn their back to Him.

    While becoming merciful is not easily attainable, from Jesus’ words we learn that mercy grows best in the fertile souls of the poor in spirit, those who mourn, the meek, and those who hunger and thirst for righteousness sake.

    Paul is clearly talking about unity in the church. He is talking about the kind of harmony that should exist among those people who really love the Lord, among those people in whom the Holy Spirit is living.

    Opening illustration: Our power is shut off, and suddenly we become thankful for electricity. Our garbage is not picked up, and suddenly we become thankful for the garbage collector’s weekly stop. A good friend dies, and suddenly we discover how much he meant to us.
