Sadly it was also a place where Jeroboam established a false religion, centering on the worship of a golden calf. The background for this message comes from 1 Kings 12-13 Full disclosure: Sermon Central has ...read more

    Evangelism is more than just preaching the Gospel. It is the sharing of the teachings of Jesus Christ to others. The individual Christians life should be an example of Christ to the world.

    Jesus Christ Proclaimed Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 14,626 views

    Mark jumps right into the life and ministry of Jesus, proclaiming Him as the Son of God. The Gospel opens with John the Baptist, preaching a message of repentance in preparation for the coming of Christ. He too proclaimed His deity.

These would have been essential to reach a Jewish audience, but ...read more

    You give them something to eat. We cannot be true disciples of Jesus with this dead faith, He wouldn’t allow it then and he doesn’t allow it now.
