     | 2,222 views

    Sermon – When Following Jesus Gets Hard Scripture - John 6:66-69 “At this point many of his disciples turned away and deserted him. Then Jesus turned to the Twelve and asked, “Are you also going to leave?” Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words that give eternal life. ...read more

    As the years roll by, it seems that many have forgotten that they were once lost and have been found by the LOVE of JESUS!

    "The Forgotten MANY!" “…The harvest truly [is] great, but the labourers [are] few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.” Luke 10:2 WARNING: Today’s devotion may be hazardous to religious hypocrites and those caught up in false ...read more

    Are You The King Of The Jews?

    Contributed by Paul Green on Nov 27, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,706 views

    Jesus was the King who never looked like a King, the King who never acted like a king – at least not in the way the world understands royalty. He came the first time, 2000 years ago, as the servant king, and he is coming again, in power and in glory, as the king over all kings.

    Today is the last Sunday of the Christian year, traditionally recognised as ‘The Feast of Christ the King’. Next week is Advent - the start of a new Christian year, but today we conclude the old ecclesiastical year with a proclamation of the kingship of Christ. ‘The Feast of Christ the King’ is a ...read more
