Matthew 19:4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning made them male and female,’ Once again the religious leaders are trying to trick Jesus into contradicting the law.

Aftershock

April 7, 2017 By Shawn Bumpers 1 Comment

Matthew 21:10-11 And when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, “Who is this?” So the multitudes said, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.” The word in verse ten that has been translated “moved” literally means “shaken” – it’s the same from which we get our word seismic.… Read More »

Matthew 24:30 Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. When we studied Matthew 24, we touched on such topics as Justification,… Read More »

Credit and Joy

January 16, 2017 By Shawn Bumpers Leave a Comment

Philemon 20 Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Lord. Most people don’t realize that Paul operated on credit. That’s what’s going on in this letter we know as Philemon. In the letter, Paul says, “Onesimus did something wrong, put it on my account and receive him… Read More »

Swashbuckler

Matthew 26:51 And suddenly, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear. We know from the gospel of John, chapter 18 that this was Peter who cut off the ear of the servant, Malchus. Peter, as… Read More »

Lepers Like You and Me

December 30, 2016 By Shawn Bumpers Leave a Comment

Mark 1:40 Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, “If You are willing, You can make me clean.” Leprosy is an infectious skin disease characterized by disfiguring skin sores, nerve damage, and progressive and irreversible damage. Let me point something out to you: the law did… Read More »

One Way, Jesus

November 14, 2016 By Shawn Bumpers Leave a Comment

Jesus, teaching in the Temple, had answered the leading questions of the religious leaders. The questions they had asked Jesus were designed to reveal problems with Him and yet His answers revealed problems with them. And in the same way, God’s Word will point out things in our own lives that need change. Jesus answered… Read More »
