    based on 10 ratings
     | 7,345 views

    NOTE: THIS IS NOT MY SERMON I DON’T EXPECT IT TO BE APPROVED (Just maintaining my calendar). It was written by Karl Barth - but its definately worth reading (and I’ve got a decent responsive reading to go with it...) MP: Fire produces coals and a

    Title: Fire Upon the Earth “I am come to kindle fire upon the earth and what would I desire more than that it should already burn!” (Luke 12:49). What shall I say about the fire which Jesus came to kindle? Above all, that this fire does not yet burn upon the earth, as little today as then when he ...read more

    A look at Jesus’ statements about coming to bring not peace, but division.

    With this speech, Jesus certainly grabs our attention. “Do you think that I have come to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division.” It’s not exactly what most of us come to church on Sunday morning hoping to hear. To a large extent our families are what make us who we are, where we ...read more

    What did Jesus, the prince of peace, meant when He said:no peace but division?

    1stBBC No peace but division! Luk 12:49-53 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished! Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather ...read more

  • Having A Heavenly Head On Your Shoulders Series

    based on 29 ratings
     | 4,359 views

    Jesus gets tough on hypocrisy and worldly desires. All that stands in the way of the kingdom of God must go!

    Does Jesus ever say things that make you mad? Sometimes when we get close to someone and there are disagreements, we get mad at each other. Does that ever happen in your family? Some things have to be said and done even when it makes for an angry response. Jesus knew when to be soft and when to ...read more

    based on 75 ratings
     | 15,414 views

    Are you paying attention to the spiritual climate? If you aren’t right with God, don’t wait. God’s storm warning has been issued and you’d better prepare and get right with God.

    Tuning in to the Spiritual Weather Channel Luke 12:51-59 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION I don’t watch much television as a rule–I read. I might catch an episode of “Star Trek: the Next Generation”, or watch Fox News. However, I do tune in the Weather Channel quite often. I’ve always been ...read more

    Jesus desired to bring a burning, exciting, dynamic presence of God in the lives of people. God’s fire is dazzling and powerful and can work wonders in your life.

    Are You Fired Up for Jesus? Luke 12:49-50 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION Sometimes sermons can be too long. A bishop spoke in Chapel at Yale University. He spoke for 15 minutes on how the Y in Yale stood for “Youth” then for another 15 minutes about how A stood for “Ambition,” the L stood for ...read more

  • The Mission Of Division

    Contributed by Joel Pankow on Aug 27, 2004
    based on 45 ratings
     | 8,525 views

    Jesus talks about a mission that seems foreign to his character as the Prince of Peace - that of causing divisions. Come and explore this strange text with me.

    August 29, 2004 Luke 12:49-53 “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is completed! Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. From now on there will be ...read more

  • Peace & Fire

    Contributed by Dan Cormie on Aug 15, 2010
     | 4,944 views

    In Luke 12 Jesus asks His disciples if they think He came to bring peace on earth and then - without giving them a chance to respond - He makes; what to me seems like a shocking statement, “No, I tell you, but division.”

    Dakota Community Church Revised Common Lectionary August 15, 2010 Peace & Fire Quick background notes: A.) This month’s book of the month is “Why Johnny Can’t Preach” by T.

  • Deliver Us From Evil

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Aug 17, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,263 views

    What do we mean when we pray "deliver us from evil"?

    People have always been divided about Jesus. I have known folks who are so “sold-out” to Jesus they drive everybody else crazy. They come across like the butcher who wanted to be a good soul-winner, so he took some training in personal evangelism and memorized all the scriptures and ...read more

  • Is Jesus Really The Prince Of Peace?

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Aug 23, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,018 views

    While Jesus came to bring peace between God and sinners he wants us to know that our life in this world as his followers won't be peaceful.

    A couple of years ago a number of Circuit City electronic stores in the States were going out of business and some of them hired a liquidator to sell off their remaining inventory. Customers lined up to purchase TVs that were supposedly discounted by as much as 75%. Some savvy shoppers, however, ...read more

  • Fire Of God

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Apr 22, 2012
     | 11,448 views

    If the fire of judgment is early kindled in us, we, as Christ, die to sin but live to God.

    Fire is full of symbolic meaning in Scripture. Fire is used as a sign of God’s presence and as a sign of judgment, both of acceptance and rejection. Fire is a sign of theophany, which is just a fancy way of saying a revelation of God, God’s presence. When God made His covenant with ...read more

    It is this simple, a person who does not accept the forgiveness of God by believing in Jesus Christ is still eternally doomed to be judged because all have disobeyed God.

    We continue our study of the Gospel of Luke. Please open your Bibles to Chapter 12 of Luke….. We note at the beginning of Luke 12 that Jesus spoke to thousands of people as well as giving intimate lessons to His Disciples. So far in Luke 12, we have noted 3 major application questions for our ...read more

  • Gentle Jesus Meek And Mild

    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,869 views

    Jesus was controversial - and if you are having a comfortable Christian life - are you really worshipping the Jesus of the New Testament?

    Luke 12:49-56 Gentle Jesus meek and mild You have to be kidding!! Story: At the very start of his ministry in Florence, Savonarola the Italian political reformer (1452-1498) noticed an elderly woman who used to come and pray regularly before that statue of the Virgin Mary. One day, ...read more
