Peter’s Denial, Matt 26:31-35
In Matt 26:31-35, when Jesus told his disciples that they would be offended because of him, Jesus knew by the scripture and by his understanding what they would do.

The Bloody City, Ezek 22:1-12
In Ezek 22:1-12, Ezekiel pronounces the abominations going on in Jerusalem, the bloody city. And he proclaims that her time has come and her days have drawn near to be punished. In v.2, the Lord asks, “Wilt thou judge the bloody city? Shew her all her abominations”. This is just like Ezek 20:4 when he […]
Abundant in Goodness, Ex 34:6
When the Lord passed by Moses he proclaimed that he was the Lord… abundant in goodness. When Jesus replied to the rich, young ruler’s greeting, he said, “None is good, save one, that is, God”, Lk 18:18. Our God is the only one who is good. And not only is he good, he is abundant […]

Harden Not Your Heart, Ps 95:8
Ps 95:8 says, “Harden Not Your Heart”. The reference in Psalms is to the Jews who wandered in the wilderness and didn’t make it to the land of Canaan because they erred in their hearts, and tempted the Lord. They are an example to us to harden not your heart, 1 Cor 10:6, 11. Though […]
For Christ’s Sake, Lk 6:22-23
Our text is Lk 6:22-23. Jesus said, “Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake”. When you follow Jesus men are going to say some bad things about you […]
The Two Ways, Ezek 21:18-32
The Two Ways The reason we’re studying Ezekiel is just to help you understand what you’re reading when you read it. We’re not approaching this study as an effort to look for wild, new, or strange interpretations of prophecy. The lesson today is on the two ways Nebuchadnezzar could make his attack on Jerusalem. The […]
Spiritual Attacks, Lk 4:1-12
Spiritual Attacks Spiritual attacks from the devil often follow spiritual highs with the Lord. We see this with the baptism of Jesus Christ. In Jn 1:29-34, we see why John baptized the men of Israel and why he baptized Jesus. John preached the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. And he baptized Jesus […]
