Matthew 13:44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.” Matthew 13:10-17 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak …
Matthew 6:9-13 is generally what we call the Lord’s prayer. It should be called the disciple’s prayer as it is the way Jesus taught his disciples how to pray. Jesus could not pray, “forgive us our trespasses” as Jesus did not sin. That being said, John 17 is really the …
We need to understand this crazy world, God’s purpose and plan for our lives, and why things happen the way they do. The disciples were faced with many of the same questions. Jesus answered them, and I believe, in the process, he answered us, too! John 15: 18-21 “If the …
