Text: Luke 4:1-30 Jesus Christ was tempted by the devil in all ways; He was tempted with the lust of the flesh (v.3), He was tempted with the lust of eyes (vv.5-7) and He was tempted with the lust of pride of life (vv. 9-11). God is never an agent of temptation (James 1:13); but[…]
Text: Luke 3: 21-38 Instead of going to Jerusalem and associate with established religious leaders, Jesus Christ chose to come to River Jordan to be with those who were repenting (v.21). Jesus Christ had no sin to repent of in order to be baptized, but He did it because He was both God and human.[…]
Text: Ezekiel 48:1-35 This is the last Chapter and the last meditation in the Book of Ezekiel. It seems rather boring, dividing the land among the people of Israel; but it is very important. At the time Ezekiel writes this, the people are in exile. They have no land. This passage is a promise that[…]
Text: Ezekiel 47:1-23 This Chapter gives a quiet, but powerful, description of the waters of blessing flowing out from the Temple.

Text: Ezekiel 45:1-25 In this Chapter, we read of a very large portion of land given to the prince. The kings of Israel often took the land from their people; but Yahweh will have no more of it. The princes are given a lot of land and commanded to rule justly. They must also provide[…]
Text: Ezekiel 44:1-31 For so many years the Levites were not faithful to Yahweh; they also served false gods (v.10). Although they continue to slaughter the animals brought into the Temple by the people, Yahweh does not allow them to minister to Him in the sacrifices or handling of the blood.

Shalom Brethren! Last Sunday our topic was: Setting our hearts to seek the Lord 2 Chronicles 20:1-30, Matt. 13:44-50. We seek the Lord NOT because He is lost BUT rather we are lost from him as a result of the fall of man. [Sin separated man from God]. We ought to seek the Lord while[…]
Matthew begins, “In those days…” (1a) This phrase refers to the time before Jesus’ coming. There was no word of God. Without the word of God there was no direction; no truth; no vision or hope.
