    January 26, 2020 /

    The key phrase “come to Me” was said by Jesus Christ several times in several different contexts. Meanwhile, the preachers of all times have portrayed Him as they see fit – with Bible verses in hand to back up their opinions. This sermon looks at these things and quotes Jesus extensively to let Him speak for Himself in light also of other scriptural teachings by the apostles. Lord bless you!

    If you know Jesus you will love Jesus

    January 12, 2020 /

    Out of the love of Jesus flows all else. It is no hardship to have faith, serve, or anything for God – including receive His Spirit and learn what it is to be truly spiritual. Those who live for other things, or even fall away, show something about themselves without even needing to say it. This message outlines much of what Jesus and the apostles said was Christianity’s highest goal. May the Lord bless you.

    What it is to be ‘spiritual’ like Jesus and why you should you care

    January 5, 2020 /

    Jesus was spiritual. As God and man in one He was the most dynamic Person who ever lived. He said His secret would be made available to those who followed Him and received the Holy Spirit. If they really did, there would be evidence and “fruit” of it. By the New Testament’s standards it is clear one may be a real believer in Jesus and yet not be spiritual. This message overviews the ins and outs of this, and lets the Bible speak. May the Lord bless you!

Weekly Word

Matthew 11 - 25 At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. 26 Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 27 All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
