    I wonder, is there a bit of worldly ambition present in these men that He had called to be His disciples? I believe they may have been doing a bit of bragging among themselves, and now they come to Jesus to see who He thinks is the greatest disciple.

    Capernaum (53.1) Disciples Contend for Greatness Matthew 18:1-10 A LITTLE CHILD BECOMES AN OBJECT LESSON: At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

    The Lord is to be feared, especially by those who are in rebellion against Him. However, the fear of the Lord seems to be absent from many churches. Is that spiritually healthy?

    Please open your Bibles to Mark 4:35-41 which we will read in a few minutes. This past week I saw a video of a comedienne ridiculing a devout, born again Christian and she was saying, “I am Christian, I love Jesus, but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things.” So, setting her slander aside, I was ...read more
