When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw [Jesus] eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6 We live today in what I would call a very spirituality pluralistic society.

It is finished!” And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. John 19:30b Today is Good Friday. This is the day that Jesus was crucified on the cross. Read Luke 22:47-23:48 and John 19:1-37.

And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My…
Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love respectful greetings in the market places, and chief seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets, who devour widows’ houses, and for appearance’s sake offer long prayers.

Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will scatter him like dust.” Luke 20:17-18 Yesterday we read and saw how Jesus cleaned the Temple from what…
It is written, ‘And My house shall be a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a robbers’ den.” Luke 19:46 Easter is not a day, it is a season, and for us Christ followers, it is a way of life. In order for us to prepare for Easter Sunday, I want us to spend this week looking at Jesus’ last…
This week we have been looking at Psalm 139 and praying bold and dangerous prayers. Today I want you to consider your response to God’s call, His direction, His leading. In the Bible, there are three types of responses: Jonah’s Response: Here I am. I’m not going (“Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has…
See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139: 24 In Psalm 139, David asks God to look at four specific areas in his life. The first area was his heart. Second, David prays that God would reveal his fears, his anxious thoughts. Third, David asks God to reveal his sins. David ends…
