A message from the series “Sermons.” How is your spiritual vision? Do you see yourself clearly? Do you bring the lense of Scripture to bear regularly upon your own soul?

A message from the series “Sermons.” Here we see the crowd demanding a sign from Jesus, but He refuses, promising only to give them the sign of Jonah: just as Jonah was three days in the belly of the whale before preaching in Ninevah, Jesus would be three days in the belly of the earth and then rise from the grave. It was not the sign they expected and demanded, but it was a sign that would be infinitely more wonderful, proving His power over death and sin and His perfect fulfillment of the Father’s divine plan of redemption.

We are going to explore that warning as well as the blessing He gives that is an exhortation to us all.

A message from the series “Sermons.” On this occasion, Jesus heals yet another demoniac, restoring the man’s ability to speak. By this point in his ministry, many are beginning to wonder out loud if Jesus is indeed the Messiah. The religious leaders, infuriated by such conjecture, respond by spreading a vicious lie – they accuse Jesus of being in league with Satan. Jesus responds by not only revealing the inconsistency and hypocrisy of their thinking, but also by warning that those who are not with Him are against Him.
