I ran across this video at the Stepping Up website. I thought it worth sharing.

What offices does Christ fill as our Redeemer?

Jesus is the only one who has demonstrated the ability and the authority to fulfill all three of these offices in combination in one person.

A much needed rest

Jesus’ yoke is easy and the burden light. If the burden is not light, if service is difficult, then I need to consider that the yoke is not Jesus’ yoke.

That pesky sense of oughtness seems to keep creeping in, even in those who say it doesn’t exist. This is the dilemma of the materialist. It is this sense of right and wrong that has caused many to explore the claims of Jesus Christ.

The real cost of the win-at-all-costs mentality

In America we like people and teams who win. We like winners, but what does the win-at-all-costs really cost us? Can we afford to continue down that tunnel?

Moving beyond the gospel?

In some churches I have attended, there is a sense that the gospel entails the elementary teaching of Christianity. To move toward maturity then requires that people move beyond the gospel into more “meaty” doctrinal teaching.

I have come to realize that this is wrong headed and leads not to maturity, but to immaturity. The effect of this teaching is the exact opposite of the desired result.

Disqus Update – Why I’m Back

I have been amazingly indecisive about which comment system I use on this blog. I have tried the native Wordpress system, Disqus, Intense Debate, Livefyre and one or two others. Currently, I am back with Disqus.
