There will be No Sneaking In
(John 10:1-6) I’m a bit old to go to nightclubs, but I have seen plenty of video and film footage of what they are like. To get into the really exclusive places you have to go through the front door. And there is always some really big dude with muscles on his muscles, a T-shirt…

It’s Bleeding Obvious!
(John 9:24-34) When something is “bleeding obvious” shouldn’t you accept it? When something is as plain as the nose on your face, should you not just believe and accept it? Are you likely to say, “No that thing on my face between my eyes is NOT a nose. I don’t believe it!” Of course you…

Should You or Shouldn’t You?

Jesus Knew What Was in Man
(John 2:23-25) Whom should you trust? Who can you trust and know that you will be OK in all situations? Until you really know a person it is not wise to entrust yourself to them as people will take advantage of others if they have the opportunity. In this section of scripture we see that…

Behold, the Lamb of God
(John 1:29-34) The gospel of John is incredibly powerful. It contains so much knowledge and teaching that it can only have been inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Once Saved Always Saved?
(Luke 13:6-9) Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could be saved once and then know with confidence that you never had to do anything more? You could just sit back, relax and know that you are OK with God. Even if you did the wrong thing, you would still be OK and receive the salvation…
