Going … Make Disciples! Everybody knows the verse: “God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life!” And always the emphasis is put on two of the first five words: “God SO loved the WORLD!” The understanding of most is that God’s love is SO great that it…

Going … Make Disciples! Every human being is guilty of giving in to temptation … of doing something we know is either ethically or morally wrong, or making a choice that is selfish or detrimental to others, and possibly even to ourselves. If you are a Christian and you believe what the Bible says, you know that simply being tempted is not…
Going … Make Disciples! Perfection!! Let’s face it, the very thought of anyone or anything being “perfect” in this world is, for the most part, unimaginable! So imagine the perfect Son of God, who existed before creation, through whom and for whom everything was made, entering into this world, taking upon Himself a human nature, yet without sin … imagine the perfect…
Going … Make Disciples! It was the prophet Isaiah who spoke of the one “crying in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; make His paths straight!’” (Isaiah 40:3; Matthew 3:3). Isaiah was offering comfort to God’s people, who were living in a spiritual wasteland. Having turned away from God, most of the Jews had little hope of salvation. In fact,…
Going … Make Disciples! Living in the midst of our modern world, having access to an unending stream of knowledge on every subject imaginable, what possible difference could it make to your life whether or not you understand or believe what one book says about one man who lived nearly 2,000 years ago? But what if that “one man” was the fulfillment…
Words From The Upper Room While we cannot go back to that morning when the women and the disciples ran to the tomb to find that Jesus had risen from the dead, it is belief in their testimony that confirms the confession Peter made when Jesus asked them who they said He was: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living…

It seems strange to call this period of time “Holy Week,” because it was, in reality, the most “unholy” week in the…
Words From The Upper Room We sometimes joke that certain people think they are “God’s gift to the world.” Such people are often filled with pride and fail to realize that those around them would rather NOT be!! That is just the opposite of GOD’s goal for those who come to know Him. We sometimes, if not often, miss the central truth…
Words From The Upper Room “I want to be like Jesus!” Many people SAY that, but few seem to understand what it means! As He approaches the cross, looking forward to facing the mockery and humiliation of “trials” before the Jewish council, Herod and Pilate, enduring the physical agony of being beaten and whipped, and finally suffering the wrath of God against…
Words From The Upper Room Who would not prefer an “easy road” through life? Given the choice, no one would choose sorrow, suffering, and trials. But while there are those who claim that Jesus promises those who believe in Him such a path, His words that have been passed on to us through the Apostles tell a different story. Jesus simply never…
