The first sign in John 2:1-11 teaches us that Jesus is the Christ who initiates the new covenant.

Beginning in John 6, in our expositional series in John.

We need all the help we can get in following Jesus. So let's reject conventional wisdom and pay less attention to elaborate church programs and eccentric pastoral personalities and embrace proven gifts to pilgrims along the way.

May we have the heart of Christ as we correctly judge in spirit and truth.

An evangelistic message buidling on Labor Day. What't he most important of all work? And WHY is this work critically important - even eternally important. This message calls a world with upside down views of work to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.

The story of Jesus' attendance at the wedding feast in Cana is rich in spiritual lessons for us. It also bids God's people to prepare for the greater wedding feast to come.

In this part of Mark's Gospel, we are shown that what was going on in Jerusalem at the time was empty ritualism, not living faith. Jesus looked for the little berries on the fig tree that would have proceeded the flowers and fruit, but He found none – and so He cursed it. Then He walked into the Temple in Jerusalem. It was an externally beautiful building, but the interior was corrupted with greedy people who had set up a marketplace and were talking advantage of even the poorest of God's people. Sadly, this still goes on today. It is God Who needs to be worshiped, not we who need to be entertained. Jesus was righteously angry at all this. Just like the fig tree, He found no spiritual fruit within the glorious and beautiful Temple. After seeing the dead fig tree again, He used this as an opportunity to teach His disciples a lesson about faith. He was not saying that the Lord will just dump blessings on you if you pray hard enough. But God did move heaven and earth to procure the forgiveness of our sins. Do we believe that? Jesus came for us to have a living faith, not just a trust in signs and symbols.

CURRENT EVENTS: We discuss the Maui Fire that may have killed more than 1,000 and burned out all the non-elites and non-corporate establishment "box store" locations making way for the WEF Globalist 15-Minute Cities. In our study, we see that the number of the Apostles was limited to twelve and the membership was exclusive with signs to establish each Apostle. We are to test and reject all false professions of those claiming to be apostles. And we should recognize that they were rewarded greatly in glory but suffered great persecution in their role as apostles. Also Reference: 1 Corinthians 1:22, 2 Corinthians 11:13-14, Revelation 2:1-2, Romans 16:7, Philippians 3:4-14 https://bbfohio.com

After a look at the first day, we have learned much about our God. He is eternal, creator, judge, a God of order, a communicator. He made the world and everything in it to showcase His glory. Join us as we continue to look into this section. There are two metaphors that are common. One is that of a canvas and painting. For the first, in days 1-3 God made the canvas, then painted. The other is that he shaped the structure (days 1-3) and then populated it (days 4-6). Tonight we will move to the second half of the analogy. God has made the canvas, now to paint a picture for His glory.

We get to share in the suffering. Stop feeling victimized by our scars its part of being human. God redeems our scars.  Jesus calls for us to believe in Him even though we have not seen Him (1Peter How do we apply this  How has Jesus met you?  Is Jesus your Lord?  Is Jesus your God?  What do your scars make you?  Do you believe in Jesus?
