    Sermon for 1/29/2006 Introduction: Seinfeld episode where George breaks up with his girlfriend "It’s not you, it’s me." ~George. Before George can say his line, his girlfriend beats him to the line. "If it’s anybody, it’s me." I get this in our text. They don’t threaten Jesus with His life. ...read more

    Here is a seed thought on forgiveness. Take it and develope it. This is an article I wrote for a newsletter that goes into several prisons in the U.S.

    Must I Forgive? MAT 18:21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Till seven times? 22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. 23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a ...read more

    3rd in series "Miracles in Matthew." Looks at whay we doubt the Lord in crises and why we don’t need to doubt.

    Introduction: 1. A storm at sea. There is nothing else that so vividly potrays a picture of helplessness. A tiny boat on the open water tossed by the waves, defenseless. 2. It makes a perfect metaphor for the difficulties that we all face in life--situations beyond our control, unpredictable, ...read more

  • Who's In Control Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 25, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,731 views

    We as humans have a hard time giving up control of anything, but in order to find the abundant life Jesus offers, we must cede authority of our lives to Him, even if that means going into choppy waters.

    We began last time by looking at Jesus as He came down from giving the Sermon on the Mount. He begins to demonstrate that it isn’t all talk—that He really is the coming King and controls His creation, both the visible and invisible. We see Him first approached by two people who really have no ...read more

Since I was smaller, I would give it to him. Then I decided to fight back. I started taking karate ...read more

     | 9,287 views

    How do we deal with struggle and suffering? What is the Biblical perspective on knowing if God cares as we walk through life?

    Struggle: a biblical perspective to Maturity in Christ Matthew 8: 23 When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. 24 And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being covered with the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. 25 And they came to Him and woke Him, ...read more

  • Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - When Jesus Skips Out On Church, You Know Someth Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 3, 2010
    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,513 views

    It's interesting to me that Jesus called His disciples to leave the crowd and His disciples and they experience some spiritual warfare as they cross to the other side of the lake. Why would Jesus miss this opportunity, when He had a crowd gathered?

    Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - WHEN JESUS SKIPS OUT ON CHURCH, YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG! I remember as a young student Pastor being invited to a Church for afternoon tea. They said they wanted to pray for me. What I didn't realise is that they wanted to pray for me to be their Pastor. At the end ...read more

    based on 18 ratings
     | 10,138 views

    Jesus knew what He was doing! He always does. He had just finished giving peace to his discipes troubled by an angry demonic storm. And He would not be thwarted in giving peace to some troubled men who were in the grip of demonic influence.

    Part 13 - Matthew 8:23-34 - DOES JESUS SLEEP IN YOUR STORMS TOO? "I got into the boat with the other disciples and we started across the lake. Some Pharisees seemed annoyed and the crowd was disappointed that we were going, but I saw Jonas, a man who had been healed of leprosy placating the crowd ...read more

  • Part 14 - Matthew 8:28-34 - An Unhealthy Fascination With Evil Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 6, 2010
    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,077 views

    Today, our culture seems fascinated with death and vampires and witches and ghosts and horoscopes and clairvoyants and numerous other dark pathways to evil. It is disturbing because people feel they can control it. These kinds of choices have consequences

    Part 14 - Matthew 8:23-34 - AN UNHEALTHY FASCINATION WITH EVIL He writhed on the floor while men and women gathered around him hurling their prayers. That’s the best way I can describe it. "Come out in Jesus name!" they said, and he writhed all the more as if in pain, and certainly in turmoil. The ...read more

  • Part 15 - Matthew 8:28-34 - An Unhealthy Desire For Power Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 7, 2010
    based on 29 ratings
     | 8,432 views

    THE DESIRE FOR POWER IS OFTEN THE DOORWAY FOR THE DEMONIC. These men couldn't be bound by chains but they were certainly bound by Satan. They were almost completely under the control Satan, enslaved to him.

    Part 15 - Matthew 8:28-34 - AN UNHEALTHY DESIRE FOR POWER My daughter and son-in-law once lived in Parramatta in Sydney, quite near an old cemetery. It had historic significance for Sydney and was protected, I think, by the national trust. It angered me when it was vandalised. A part of our ...read more

    Satan tells us this is just the way it is, we have to accept what he has for us. But Jesus has another option.

    Forgiveness is a choice we make. It is rooted in Christ's sacrifice and it brings freedom.
