    This Man Receives Sinners

    Contributed by Timothy Shumer on Apr 28, 2002
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,228 views

    The self-righteous religious rulers of Jesus’ day didn’t want much to do with sinners - but that was precisely the point of Jesus coming to earth! They wouldn’t receive sinners, but Jesus would ~ and He did! Will you?

    In His second resurrection appearance, Jesus commissions His disciples and breathes the Holy Spirit on them. Will we let Jesus breath His Spirit into us also?

    Jesus, the 40 days after His resurrection said to his disciples and to us today that if we believe in Him, receive from Him what He offers us, we will become all that He desires us to be.

    Believe, Receive, Become John 1:10-13 Introduction- One week ago we celebrated Easter, the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We rejoice that because Jesus arose from the grave that we can have resurrection over death too. We have that because we have by choice accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord ...read more

    Be Ready To Receive Help Series

    Jesus received people according to how they were convicted to serve Him. However, we as human beings often miss the bigger picture, and forfeit opportunities to assist people in being used by God to further the kingdom.

    I want to begin by sharing something from the apostle Paul. Paul, in speaking about what a person should give to the church in the way of monetary offerings; he once stated, “For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have” ...read more

    How do I see clearly? The same way that the man received full sight – he received Jesus’ touch.

    Introduction We come to another familiar scene – Jesus healing someone. We know what to expect after all the other miracles, but be prepared – the Holy Spirit may bring the unexpected. The Text Jesus and his disciples come to the town of Bethsaida, which is at the northern edge of ...read more

    God has placed the enabling to comprehend Jesus as the true Light of the World within each person. Though many will reject Him and others will receive Him into their life, all have been designed with the capacity to recognize Him for who He is.

    JOHN 1: 9-13 HOW TO BECOME A CHILD OF GOD What an astonishing fact that God would come to earth, wrap Himself in human flesh and take up a human nature. Yet He most certainly did become a human being. There is another even more astonishing fact than the incarnation of God. When God became flesh ...read more

     | 1,850 views

    Jesus gives us four good ways to measure our lives: 1. Have I rejected God's representatives? (vs. 12-19). 2. Have I repented? (vs. 20-24). 3. Have I received God's revelation? (vs. 25-26). 4. Do I have a relationship with God? (vs. 27).

    Receiving Treasure In Heaven

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 1,002 views

    Our treasure on earth eclipses our desire for "treasure in heaven." Only God can give us a desire for "treasure in heaven." Therefore, we must forsake our treasure on earth and follow Jesus to receive "treasure in heaven."

    You will notice how this passage begins. We are told that Jesus ‘was setting out on his journey’ (v. 17). And we know where that journey will lead. It will take Jesus to Jerusalem, where a cross awaits Him. He has already foretold His death twice in recent days, and He will speak of it again—in ...read more

    When our desire for something better gets bigger than the reasons "why not" then we are on our way to receiving from God, but it takes determination on our part, then God will meet us there....

    Luke 5:27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me. 28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.
