Crossing over to the other end of the spectrum…… there are those who do have a genuine desire to know the Father…… but they feel the need to make this known to the rest of the world….. and end up going about things the wrong way. Matt 6:1-18 1 “BEWARE OF PRACTICING YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS BEFORE [...]

Let us take a look at a prayer that Jesus said concerning his disciples. It is very important to situate the context of the scenario….. because it is specifically about his disciples.

This is probably one of my favorite things that Jesus ever said…..because it has had such an impact on my life. It is one of those statements that comes in conjunction with the saying….. “put your money where your mouth is”. It is short….. and to the point. Jesus says: John 7:16-18 16 “MY TEACHING [...]

The warnings continue. Matt 16:6-12 6 “BE CAREFUL,” JESUS SAID TO THEM. “BE ON YOUR GUARD AGAINST THE YEAST OF THE PHARISEES AND SADUCEES.” 7 They discussed this among themselves and said, “It is because we didn’t bring any bread.” 8 Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked, “You of little faith, why are you talking [...]
