Text: Matthew 13:1-15 Jesus Christ told His disciples, and indeed all of us who comprehend spiritual truth, that salvation is by the grace of God (v.11). It is not for everyone; but for those who God destined from birth to be saved (see also John 6:44). It is not by chance; it is from the[…]
Text: Matthew 12:32-50 Jesus Christ is warning us to be careful with our tongue (v.36). There is nothing like slip of the tongue or a simple joke. This is because every word that we speak is from the heart, a bad fruit will always come from a bad tree (v.33). So, we need to be[…]

Praise God Brethren! Last Sunday our topic was; Repent and Rest in Your Salvation from Psalms 15:1-5. Our greatest desire should be to dwell in the house of the Lord. David poses a pertinent question of who is fit to dwell in the presence of God. Looking at the situation in our nation, murders, quarreling[…]
Text: Matthew 12:16-31 It is very sad and it disturbed the minds of the Pharisees to say that Jesus Christ was from Satan (v.24) despite the display and proof that He was God, and they knew it. They blasphemed against the Holy Spirit because they were refusing something they knew was from God (John 11:48;[…]
Text: Matthew 12: 1-15 In this text, we read about Pharisees accusing Jesus Christ’s disciples of picking and eating grains on Sabbath and also accusing Jesus Christ Himself of healing on Sabbath (vv.1-13). At the time of Jesus Christ, there were three prominent parties of Judaism, Pharisees, Sadducees and Essences; of these, the Pharisees were[…]
Text: Matthew 11:16-30 As we read earlier in Chapter 9, Jesus Christ chose Capernaum to be the headquarters of His earthly ministry. No where is it recorded that the residents of that town/ city ever mocked or chased Jesus Christ out of that city, as it happened in some other towns, for example, his own[…]
Text: Matthew 13:16-58 Jesus Christ used to teach in parables; it was a common method of teaching Judaism at the time. At first, Jesus Christ used graphic analogies (cf Matt. 5:13) and their meaning was much clearer depending on the context as He taught. Later, He adopted parables to veil the truth from non-believers but[…]
Text: Matthew 11:1-15 At one time, John was very sure that Jesus Christ was the Messiah (Matt. 3:11-13); but in the midst of persecution, somehow he felt that may be he was wrong. He, therefore, sent some of his disciples to enquire from Jesus Christ, if, indeed, Jesus Christ was the Messiah (vv.2-3). Note that[…]
Text: Matthew 10:26-42. The ultimate end of good news is to have peace with God (John 14:27; Rom 8:6); but the immediate process is full of conflict. In some communities, conversion to Christ can bring strained relationships between family members (vv.34-36), persecution, especially from some other faiths, and sometimes martyrdom. Therefore, to follow Christ is[…]
