    The Ten Virgins

    Jesus’s teaching in Matthew 25 is a continuation of Matthew 24. Jesus’s disciples have asked Him when the Temple will be destroyed and what the signs will be of His judgment against Jerusalem. Jesus has been answering their question, and we are now able to look at the historical record and see that Jesus was…

    Was Jesus an irreligious, Renegade Refugee and revolutionary?

    Claim: Jesus was a renegade, refugee who rejected religion and lived a revolutionary life.

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 8:1-15

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 8:1-15

    For Egyptians, the frog symbolizes birth, generation, water, renewal, and fertility. The Egyptians wear frog amulets and even have a frog-headed goddess named Heqet. With his staff, Aaron obeyes the Lord and summons frogs over the land of Egypt. He does so that Egypt will know that there is no one, especially no god, like…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 7:14-25

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 7:14-25

    Blood represents life and death, and so does the Nile for all of Egypt. At some point in their history, Egyptians associated the Nile with their gods—Hapi, Sobek, and Osiris—and relied on them to bring fertility to the soil for farming through the natural cycle of the Nile River. Without the Nile, Egyptians would die.…

  • Jesus’s Compassion for Sinners

    Jesus’s Compassion for Sinners

    It is Monday on Holy Week. Jesus has pronounced woes on the Pharisees after answering the Sadducees. He now broadens His attention to Jerusalem as a whole. We know that God is good. We know that He is patient with the worst of sinners, not revealing His wrath in haste and never taking pleasure in…

  • It’s All About the Temple

    It’s All About the Temple

    Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and her colt. He rides up to the temple and enters. The crowds called Him the son of David, the rightful heir to David’s throne. David is known for reforming the nation of Israel concerning her religious practices (cf. 1 Chronicles 15ff). Jesus, who fulfilled David’s typological reign,…

    Jesus’s Christmas Vision

    Last year on Christmas Eve we exposited the Christmas praise in Luke 2:14 together. This year, we heard about the Christmas hope, Christmas faith, Christmas joy, and Christmas peace we enjoy because of the incarnation of Jesus Christ.

  • What if God Showed His Face?

    What if God Showed His Face?

    The condition of the world has been reported to the just judge, God. The saints who have died responded by asking when God would vindicate them, set right the world’s injustices. Now, the whole world is exposed in light of the testimony that has been presented in this heavenly courtroom. Revelation 6:12-17 I looked when…

  • Christ Unveiled, The Disciples Terrified

    Christ Unveiled, The Disciples Terrified

    Jesus stated He was building His church upon the foundation of the apostles’, primarily Peter’s, testimony. He showed them that He must go to Jerusalem, suffer, be killed, and raised from the dead. He has made it known that there is a great cost for those who desire to go after Him into His kingdom.…

  • When Jesus Went To Sin City

    When Jesus Went To Sin City

    I was told by another pastor that the church I pastor is full of horrible people. This other pastor was not wrong. The Church at Sunsites is a local church full of unrighteous people whose only hope is to be clothed in Christ’s righteousness and be sanctified by His Holy Spirit. Really, I pity those…
