    "Cutting Himself With Stones..." By Dr. Winson Butler

    Contributed by Winson Butler on Aug 24, 2005
    based on 11 ratings
     | 3,162 views

    The person who really wants to do something finds a way, all others an excuse. Not so with the the encounter of Jesus with the sad soul who lived in the tombs. Let’s examine it together!

    INTRODUCTION Mark 5 has been appropriately called the Bible home for the incurables. Three cases, absolutely, humanly speaking, incurable. The demonic man, The diseased woman and The dead girl. All three have been seen as hopeless. If they lived in our world today, one would be sent to a mental ...read more

    Sometimes, life feels much like that Friday when Jesus died and was laid in the tomb. We feel Discouraged, Doubt, Disappointment! But as Tony Compolo says: ...... "It's Friday, ... but Sunday's a comin'"!

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service there are four Scriptures read prior to the Message. The assigned readings for today are: Acts 2: 36-41; Psalm 116:1-3,10-17; 1 Peter 1:17-23 and Luke 24:13-35. Only Luke records the story. Not a word from Matthew, or Mark, or John.

    New Hope

    This leads us to a tremendous truth for our lives today. In the resurrection of Jesus Christ, God has overcome the dark tomb of our ancient despair with the bright promise of His new hope.

    Tom Lowe April 21, 2016 Title: New Hope Recent archeological expeditions have unearthed surprising discoveries in Europe—families buried together side by side in ancient cemeteries—destroying older ideas about pre-historic man in Europe. Now we understand they had some of the same ...read more

     | 7,055 views

    What’s so great about God? 1. He gives delight from disaster (vs. 12-20). 2. He gives triumph from the tomb (vs. 21-23). 3. He gives a heart to help others (vs. 24-26).

    What’s So Great about God? Philippians 1:12-26 Sermon by Rick Crandall Grayson Baptist Church - August 5, 2012 *We say it in one of the first prayers we ever learn: “God is great.” -And He really is great! -We could talk about His greatness all night long. -And in these verses, ...read more

    Lent, 1986, Communion: We should never be intimidated from the Lord's Table by ritual, shame, or weakness. It is hosted by one who offers us mercy and grace, paid for by His blood; so come boldly.

    In the South Africa of apartheid, I suppose, nearly anything is possible. And so I do not expect that this story, improbable as it sounds, is untrue. If anything, I expect it could be multiplied many, many times over. At any rate, the story is that one day an Afrikaner, one of the ruling class in ...read more

    Discipleship: The Call Of The Cross

     | 12,322 views

    It is important to understand that God has freely given us salvation. It was paid for by the cross of Christ. Along with this salvation comes discipleship. Jesus said if you are going to be His disciple, you have to bear your cross.

    Discipleship: The Call Of The Cross (Note: This message was preached at a special School of Ministry/Congress on Leadership convened in Panama City, Republic of Panama) I consider it a great privilege to be invited to be part of this School of Ministry and Congress on Leadership.

    Ordinary Proper 21: Divisions among Christians are not new. Unfortunately, they are all too common - even among the same church members. But we are called to be one because of the price paid to make us one - the Cross!

    At one time, we had a large aquarium. It was fun to keep it up and to learn about the different sorts of tropical fish that we kept. One of my very favorite fish was the Betta Splendens. Sometimes they are called bettas or they are called Siamese Fighting Fish. There is a picture of a betta on ...read more

    The Cost Of Following Jesus

    based on 24 ratings
     | 11,778 views

    There is a cost to be paid for everything we do in life, even in our spiritual lives. We explore this concept using King Jehoshaphat and his decision to turn the battle over to God and let God fight it for him.

    Last week, we spoke about our having problems and how those problems will undermine our walk with Christ if we let them. I reminded you of just how important it is to stay on top of the storms in your life, and that you can only do that by fully relying, not on yourself, but on Jesus Christ to ...read more

    Paul Was Persuaded, How About You?

    The price of Redemption had been paid at the Cross, however until Jesus brought His precious blood into the Holy of Holies made without hands, the Redemption of the purchased possession (THE CHURCH) was still in expectation, not possession.

    Romans 8:1-4, 35-39 Why could Paul say this? -Because he knew that Jesus came to make “redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament.” Heb. 9:15 -Because he knew that the Law was a “shadow of good things to come.” Heb. 10:1 -Because he knew that ...read more

    Those who assume positions of influence and leadership must be willing to pay the price to hold such positions. In this lesson we'll explore the price Peter paid in Antioch when he played the hypocrite and was rebuked by Paul.

    There are people in this world who possess the natural ability to lead and command the respect of others. Whether you call it charm, charisma, magnetism, or whatever, such people wield a powerful influence on those who look up to them as the embodiment of all they would like to become ...read more

    Bart Simpson, in a program aimed at millions of America's young, is asked to say grace and he says, "Dear God, we paid for all this stuff ourselves, so thanks for nothing."

    The attitude of ungratefulness can not only be seen in the cartoons in the newspaper, but also in the lives of people. WHAT AN UNGRATEFUL PEOPLE WE HAVE BECOME! For example, if you have attended church very long you have experienced ingratitude. • There are people who will attend church to get ...read more

    Be careful! Be on guard against false teachings and teachers. These are warnings Jesus makes as we wait for Him to come again. Luther fought against the false teachings of his time, and we must within ours as well.

    10.27.24 Mark 13:5–11 (EHV) 5 Jesus began by telling them, “Be careful that no one deceives you. 6 Many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and will deceive many. . . .

    Women hoping to tend to Jesus’ body went to his tomb. The stone closing the entrance was rolled aside. They met an angel announcing that Jesus had been raised from the dead. This event set in motion our own final salvation.

    Easter started in darkness. Jesus had been buried quickly but compassionately after he died on Friday afternoon. With permission from the Roman governor, Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus, two Jewish religious leaders who quietly followed Jesus, took Jesus’ body down from the cross, carried ...read more
