    Who do people say that Jesus is? Who do you say that Jesus is?

    There are two questions I want to point us in the direction of from this passage of scripture; Mathew ch 16 v 13 Jesus asks, “Who do people say that the son of man is?” And Mathew ch 16 v 15 where Jesus asks “But who do you say that I am?” We start the narrative with this discourse between Jesus ...read more

    Going Deeper

     | 5,203 views

    It is our tendency to be satisfied with shallow answers to rather complex questions. We pop a pill instead of finding the root cause. But Jesus takes us deeper.

    Passage: Matthew 16:5-12 Intro: It is very common for us to be satisfied with shallow answers to deep questions. 1. got a headache, take an aspirin. 2. can’t sleep, take a pill. 3. this is especially true of God’s revelation to us. 4. because it is spiritual in nature, something ...read more

    I hope to explain a little bit of what it means to be a Christian.

    What does it mean to be a Christian? Matthew 16 Many preachers have asked that question over the years. Now the first thing most of you think when I ask that question is ok here it comes.

    The Bad And Good Of Leaven

    I think Jesus is saying here that I can take care of divine multiplication, and I can handle a miracle! However, I can’t help those who take in and receive the leaven of this world!

    The Bad and Good of Leaven Text: Matthew 16:5-12 5 Now when His disciples had come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread. 6 Then Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.” 7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “It is ...read more

    Why The Church Series

    based on 8 ratings
     | 21,517 views

    In our culture where the influence of the church is diminishing, why should we BE the church? The answer is found in the identity of Jesus and the promises he makes about the Kingdom he is establishing (the church).

    Why the Church I want to share some staggering statistics about church. Since the year 2000, more than 4000 churches in America have closed the doors to their buildings each year. That's more than 40,000 churches. At the turn of the 1900’s there were 27 churches to every 10,000 people. ...read more

    These verses in Matthew and Mark are some of Jesus’ teaching concerning false doctrine. He compared false doctrine to yeast. It appears small and insignificant, but it grows secretly and soon saturates everything.

    The teaching you receive will either equip you to honour the Master or will serve to allow birds to invade and despoil your life.

    “When the disciples went to the other side, they forgot to take bread. ‘Watch out,’ Jesus said to them, ‘beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.’ So, they began to discuss this among themselves, saying, ‘It is because we brought no bread.’ When Jesus learned of this, he said, ‘You ...read more
