    This sermon examines the betrayal of Jesus in Matthew 26 and proposes that there are different ways to betray Jesus. Perhaps the more incipient danger is the indifference of the eleven. The sermon also portrays the manner in which God handles human failur

    SURELY, NOT I! Matthew 26:20-50 I was marooned in a seemingly forsaken place, or so it felt. I did not know anyone. The place was isolated from life.

    The Blessings Of Forgiveness Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 22, 2004
    based on 39 ratings
     | 15,530 views

    Jesus teaches us to forgive. This is important because (1) forgiveness releases us from bondage, (2) gives us the freedom to grow, and (3) leaves room for God’s work.

    We have a forgiving God. We receive His forgiveness purely on GRACE. We pay no penance; we did no work to justify forgiveness. In fact, we cannot promise we will always stay RIGHT. We are forgiven because of Christ. We forgive because we have been forgiven. So what does these verses mean? ...read more
