GRAVE TO CRADLE | EPIC FAILS (EX. 32)

GRAVE TO CRADLE | EPIC FAILS (EX. 32) 'When times get difficult, things become uncertain, and life gets hot, there’s a tendency to throw our God-given value into those fires, at which point, idols jump out.'

Here’s my longer sermon notes from this morning’s Metro Christian Centre service (dated 23rd June 2024), session sixteen in our series journeying through the book of Exodus. You can also catch up with this via MCC’s YouTube channel (just give us time to get the video uploaded). ‘And the people bowed and prayed | To the neon god they made’ –Simon & Garfunkel, The Sounds of Silence ‘In the…

Amos 5:6 Seek The Lord To Live

Seek the Lord and live, lest He break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, with no one to quench it in Bethel–Amos 5:6 From the time a person becomes a teenager, people want to live life. They see movies and ads and think that is the way a person should be able to live to really have a great life. Living life is commonly focused around what a person has, position in society, and…

Prayer 10/08/2023

Exodus 9:15Now if I had stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with pestilence, then you would have been cut off from the earth. Any power, spirit, structure, system or patterns resisting our freedom, O Lord, rain pestilence upon them in the name of Jesus Christ.

God seeks Justice. Therefore, Thank You Jesus!

Have you ever considered what God sees from heaven? What must he think of our societies, loose morals, violence and injustices? We catch a glimpse of what God thinks about what He see in Isaiah 59 as the sins of mankind are discussed. Isaiah 59:14-15 Justice is turned back,    and righteousness stands far away;for truth has stumbled in the public squares,    and uprightness cannot enter.15 Truth…

Silent, Immovable Reminders of Hope

Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. Psalms‬ ‭19‬:‭2‬ I love the mountains. A few years ago we took a trip from our midwest, relatively flat area to the mountains. Driving through one pass in particular, the mountains on either side of us nearly blocked the sky. They were huge. One of the things I thought of as I gazed at these immense rocks is how they…

A Christlike Response To Skeptics

When people reject our message of love or even attack us, it is natural to feel angry. Jesus did. But He also showed us how to respond in a way the world would never have expected.

He doesn’t just fulfill promises in a vague way or in “the spirit of the law,” but He attends to the jots and tittles of every…

Justice

Joshua 7: 23-26. And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the children of Israel, and laid them out before the LORD. And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he…

Where's The Restraint?

photo courtesy of David Garrison on Pexels I lost my temper the other day. This is not unusual, though I’m an adaptable person, going with the flow rather than expressing my anger in an outward way. I’m also a passionate person who sees a principle, a truth, being ignored and will respond with a heightened use of words full of exasperation. I get ticked. We were watching the news–doesn’t…

Suitcase - MIA!

I’ve traveled enough to know the drill. We step off the plane, tired but relieved, only to face the final hurdle: baggage claim. We stand there, watching everyone else’s bags slide down the conveyor belt like they were personally invited. But ours? Nowhere to be found. How do we feel in that moment when the crowd thins out, and our suitcase is still MIA? Frustration, anger, dread — it all hits…

The Contrast of Good and Bad (1 Samuel 2:11-17)

This method of contrast is meant for us to look at the narrative and say to ourselves that we don’t want to go down the bad path but to walk in the good way of helpful service.

Top picture: Eli’s sons commit sacrilege; Bottom picture: Hannah and Elkanah bring the boy Samuel to the tabernacle; by William de Brailes, c.1230 C.E. Elkanah and Hannah went back home to Ramah, but the boy Samuel stayed to help Eli serve the Lord. Eli’s sons were priests, but they were dishonest and refused to obey the Lord. So, while people were boiling the meat from their sacrifices, these…

Amos 1:11 Punishment For Chasing With A Sword

Thus says the Lord: “For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity; his anger tore perpetually, and he kept his wrath forever.” Hosea 1:11 Children are often seen fighting with their brothers and sisters. This can occur out of jealousy or sibling rivalry, or just trying to be the boss of…

They Don’t Know

We seem to be living in a world these days that is running with a deficit of love. Every time you leave your house, it seems as if it doesn’t take long to find people manifesting the opposite of love. They only care about themselves. They will cut you off on the road. They accuse you only to divert the attention away from their own selfish actions. You know what I’m talking about. They spread…

The Heart of the Matter

11 ”See, my father, see the corner of your robe in my hand. For by the fact that I cut off the corner of your robe and did not kill you, you may know and see that there is no wrong or treason in my hands. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt my life to take it. 12 May the Lord judge between me and you, may the Lord avenge me against you, but my hand shall not be against you. 13 As the…
