In the nineth chapter of the Book of Joshua (verses below), Joshua and the assembly leaders of Israel get themselves into a big pickle.

This clip comes from ‘The Passion’ movie. It’s poetic license at it’s best as Jesus has ‘crushed the head of the serpent’ at and through the cross, not here at Gethsemene (and not a real snake). However, for me at least, it is a powerful visual of what Jesus’ death and resurrection has achieved in [...]

This is kind of powerful – The Reason by Hoobastank with clips from The Passion. (Warning – very graphic) Isa 53:1-11 (Prophecy dated at 700BC) 1 Who has believed our message? To whom has the Lord revealed his powerful arm? 2 My servant grew up in the Lord’s presence like a tender green shoot, like [...]

Here is a basic and essential truth that each one of us needs to ALWAYS hold on to with all of our being… “GOD IS GOOD!” Since the beginning of time, Satan and his cohorts and this corrupt and broken world have relentlessly and tirelessly tried to get mankind to believe the lie that “God [...]

Galation 5:1 says this; It is for FREEDOM that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. [Gal 5:1] What an amazing truth! Why has Christ set us free? The answer is right here in this verse; “It is for freedom that [...]

In the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Colossae he writes in Col 1:6: “All over the world this gospel is bearing fruit and growing, just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and understood God’s grace in all its truth.” The gospel is bearing fruit and growing [...]

Just to recap ‘Sin (Part 2)’… Sin is anything that goes against God’s written Word and God’s spoken Word. If we are a truly, born again, Spirit filled believers we have a new Master – Jesus. Sin is no longer our master. The power of sin is broken in our lives and we are called [...]
