Behold The King: The Cross Before The Crown

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 26, 2018

God’s desired will — with omissions and out of sequence — is no longer God’s will. The cross could not be bypassed. Jesus had to wear the crown of thorns before He could wear the crown of the Kingdom.

Behold The King: The Cross Before the Crown (Various Portions of the Gospels) 1. One blogger writes, “Today, I was waiting at the bus stop and noticed a girl that I played netball with. I ran across the road to meet her and she ran across the car park to meet me. We hugged and looked at each other ...read more

What's The Truth

Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Mar 13, 2018

With so many religious purveyors of truth, we have come to question the reality of absolute truth. Relative truth is currently ...read more

Who Kicked Jesus Out Of Politics? Theocracy And Democracy.

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jul 16, 2016

Today the neglect of the Bible and of God in society is evident. The separation of Church and state was originally designed to protect both Church and state, but is now used to subjugate any influence of God in politics?

WHO KICKED JESUS OUT OF POLITICS? Theocracy and Democracy. DEMOCRACY We get what we ask for, but for Australia it seems we don’t really know what that is. Australia voted and it seems no-one really likes any particular party. The common definition of democracy is “government of the ...read more

Dead To The World

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Nov 11, 2019

During the Last Supper, Jesus tells disciples that they are not of this world. And in the epistles, we see that Christians are dead to sin. In this message, we look at what it means to be dead but spiritually alive.

Dead To The World Let’s open with John 18:36. Jesus has been arrested and is being questioned by Pilate. “Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from ...read more

What Is Truth?

Contributed by Walter Thomas on Nov 26, 2019

There are so many truth claims bombarding Believers today. What is a saint to do? Pilot had Jesus on trial, but Jesus said truth was on trial. Pilot asked, "What is truth?" Not much has changed since that John 18:37 episode.

WHAT IS TRUTH? Dr. Walter Thomas I define truth as whatever God says and whatever God knows. God is the source of all truth. The Omniscient One is the Repository of all truth and the Arbiter of all truth claims. Everything else is merely a truth-claim at best, waiting to see if it agrees with what ...read more

Hope Everlasting Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on May 31, 2020

As Christians, we are commanded to honor our leaders, to pray for them, to obey them but Psalm 146 cautions us not to put our trust in them or praise them in the same manner in which we trust and praise God.

Jesus stands before Roman’s highest and most powerful representative in Judea, Samaria, and Idumea. Pontus Pilate looks at Him with a mixture of curiosity and annoyance. He absolutely hates being involved in these petty local squabbles. “Are you the king of the Jews?” he asks. Jesus answered, ...read more
