    Why are people so passionate to kill and torture good and innocent people who bring them God's good news? And what makes the gospel so compelling, that others will not keep silent about it?

    [Sermon preached on 14 January 2018, 2nd Sunday after Epiphany / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Over the past few weeks I had a great opportunity to catch up with reading books that I have wanted to read for a long time.

    Jesus hung on the cross BECAUSE of you, and He hung on the cross FOR you. Notice what Jesus endured for you and me: Multiple Trials, Multiple Mockeries, Multiple Tortures, A Singular Act, A Single Offer

    Crucifixion and Burial: The King is Dead Mark 15:6-39 “Before we can begin to see the cross as something done for us, we have to see it as something done by us.” John R.W.

    let us remember Him, as much as Jesus has said “Do this in remembrance of Me.” Remember how he gave himself away, how he allowed his body to be tortured to be pierced.

    Remember His Suffering Rev. Joseph Lai Every year when we come to this time near the Easter the Resurrection Day, we are often faced with complicated feelings.

    The disciples thought Jesus would return for them in their day, but He did not return. After the cross, the Christians were persecuted for their faith in Jesus and what He did for them at the cross. Many suffered torturous deaths because they would not

    Jesus Will Keep His Promise by Greg Johnson http://www.lovinggodfellowship.org Right before Jesus went to the cross to die for our sin, He made a wonderful promise to His followers.

    The picture has not been very encouraging: sheep among wolves, hated and despised, betrayed by family and loved ones, sold-out for convenience and self-preservation, falsely accused and punished, even tortured and killed. All this they had to look forward

    From being on the receiving end of personal betrayal and persecution to the point of beatings and death, to being cast in a light that will cause them to be labeled with the most odious of labels, the disciples have been hearing from their Teacher just what the price tag is for all who would really ...read more

    Is Your Life Sacrificial Or Superficial?

     | 4,897 views

    So many Christians believe if they were given the choice to renounce Jesus or die, that they would choose torture and death, but would they really? If we cannot make small sacrifices now, we cannot hope to make bigger ones later.

    In this sermon, I also shared the Text Illustration: The Rich Family in Church by Eddie Ogan Read story of a martyr – short one. I chose the story of Nichomachus, from Foxes Book of Martyrs.

    As humans we have been taken prisoner by a strong opponent who wants nothing but to destroy us. We see this captivity and torture revealed graphically as Jesus takes on not one but thousands of demons at once. It is a powerful picture of how our ultimate

    Just prior to Chapter 5 Jesus calmed the wind and seas and the disciples said “Who then is this?” As the disciples approach land they find out in spades. In a way, all of chapter 5 involves people imprisoned and the ultimate action hero who comes to set them free. In verses 1 through 20 ...read more

    Forgiving

    This sermon focuses on forgiveness and the benefits related to it. The Kingdom of God is about forgiveness. When you live a life characterized by forgiveness, it not only frees other people up of the prison of unforgiveness, it frees your mind up from the torture of unforgiveness.

    Good morning. If you were here last week, you know that Ramsey finished off our 12-week series on discipleship. Discipleship was ordinary people learning to live their everyday life like Jesus. Just because we are done with the series doesn’t mean that we stop learning what it is to live like ...read more

    Not all believers are aware of the continuing atrocities against Christians in Nigeria from the hand of wicked Islam. We examine some of this and look at practical issues in martyrdom. We must stand with our fellow Christians being killed and tortured in Nigeria and other nations. Pray for them.

    LOOK AND SEE IF THERE BE ANY SORROW LIKE MY SORROW – FOCUS ON NIGERIA There is one certainty in following God, be that 4 000 years ago right up to our current time.
