Hard Hearted can’t understand what they see

July 31, 2010 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Mark 6:52 For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened. The word consider here means to be able to “put together” or comprehend, understand. They saw Jesus do great things but they didn’t understand. They didn’t put it together that He was really God in the flesh. Now He […]

An appointment after death

July 30, 2010 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Matthew 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. I love how Jesus had set up an appointment and where to meet. Death was no hindrance to Him. Never entered His mind. He knew who He was and what He was doing. Meet me guys where […]

July 28, 2010 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Matthew 23:1-12 ….The scribes and the Pharisees ….. whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.

July 27, 2010 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Matthew 18:34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. Jesus tells a story explaining about forgiveness. He shows that we have been forgiven for a debt we could never have paid. Now we are to forgive others that owe us such […]

Hosea 11:4 I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them. God drew the nation of Israel to Himself with bands of love. He was a God that would take them […]
