The Bonds Of Legalism Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on May 4, 2009

Instead of doing a full exposition of the passage, we’re going to focus on one aspect of it. We’re going to focus on the bonds of legalism. And make no mistake about it, legalism is bondage.

But this morning, rather than doing a full exposition of the passage, we’re going to focus on one aspect of it. We’re going to focus on the bonds of legalism. The fact is that true ...read more

This morning we visit a place called Bethesda. An invalid, crippled, lying on the ground waiting for the miraculous. Jesus says "Do you want to get well?" Some people do not want to get better, they like the attention they get, or possibly the thought of doing anything different scares them. ...read more

Sought To Be Killed

Contributed by Bill Butsko on Sep 3, 2010

The Jewish leaders fabricated a way to destroy the Son of God.

Text: “For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath” (John 5:16). Is it wrong to do good on the Sabbath? If someone is hurting or suffering and we know what to do or we can help that person, but it happens to be the ...read more
