Text: Matthew 15:1-20 The Pharisees came to Jesus Christ to accuse His disciples of not honouring traditions of the elders (vv.1-2). For several centuries, after the return from captivity in Babylon, many religious traditions were added to the law of God. And Pharisees, and other leaders of religious law, took them seriously and equated them[…]
Text: Matthew 14:22-36 Many people recognised Jesus Christ as a great healer and not necessarily what He truly was, the giver of eternal life. They were looking for miracles and not necessarily to receive the miracle worker. Many were looking for physical healing and blessing, food and other physical things and not necessarily spiritual welfare.[…]
Text: Matthew 14:1-21 John the Baptist stood firm and confronted King Herod Antipas for wrong doing. King Herod Antipas had married Herodias, his brother’s wife, wrongly or sinfully. To make matters worse Herodias was a daughter to Aristobulus, another son to Herod the Great. So, marrying her uncle was an act of clear incest, thus[…]
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.
