Podcast appearances and mentions of jesus please

Would you like some help? Only Jesus can rescue you.  Know, that He will never leave you or forsake you!

Sermon preached at East Frankfort Baptist Church on January 5, 2024 during morning worship.

People grow frustrated when they see Jesus being misused, for example, by political factions. However, it is easy to project a false image of Christ to match what we want Jesus to be and to be for. This talk will look at various images of Christ, contemporarily and historically, before turning to the image presented in the New Testament. We will consider what it means to measure our own images to that original one and what it means to follow Jesus not just as an image but as the risen Lord.

Jesus, Please Come In by Free Life Church

Weekly live worship service from Cornerstone Church, North Gower (Ontario) FOLLOW US #northgowercornerstone WEBSITE https://www.knowgrowshow.ca/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/northgowercornerstone/ FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/northgowercornerstone/ LINKTREE https://linktr.ee/knowgrowshow The Passage: Mark 10.34-45 The One Thing: Will the real Jesus please stand up? Discussion Questions Know K1 What did God say to you through the service / message today Grow G1 What do you make of James and John's request in verse 35? What do you think motivated them to ask this of Jesus? G2 Think of Jesus' words: you will drink the cup (of suffering according to Mk 14:32) and be baptized (into familial conflict according to Lk 12:52-53). Why do you think Jesus told them this would happen? Would you rather know or not know if bad things were coming your way? G3 What can you do to compare your Jesus with the Biblical Jesus? How can you know if “your Jesus” resembles the Jesus of the Bible or not? What will you do about it? G4 Jesus asked James and John (v36) the same question he asked Bartimaeus (v51). Why did he give Bartimaeus what he asked but not James and John? What was different about the two requests? G5 What about those who are ignorant of Jesus? They're not actively selfish (like James and John), they're just young in the faith, or naïve. Will Jesus answer their misguided prayers if they are sincere? Show S1 Jesus asks you “What do you want me to do for you?”. Guided by Mark 10:35-45, what do you ask of him?

Slow down today.  That's the assignment. Every time you catch yourself going top speed to nowhere,  STOP and slow down.  And know that 'nowhere' will look like 'somewhere'... it will look like your office, or your home, or your room,  whatever it is, stop in the midst of that stride, and slow down. Stop and listen for The Feeling.  Stop and listen for The Feeling.  Stop and listen for The Feeling.  And then continue,  slowly,  very mindful,  very peaceful, very God-like.  You're closer than you think.  (When you stop thinking, you're (t)here.)

Surrender Novena #2 (All nine days in one place!) "Dear Jesus, please slow me down so I can better hear your voice." - @Living_Christian  DAY 2 Surrender Novena - Father Ruotolo Dolindo  Surrender to me does not mean to fret, to be upset, or to lose hope, nor does it mean offering to me a worried prayer asking me to follow you and change your worry into prayer. It is against this surrender, deeply against it, to worry, to be nervous and to desire to think about the consequences of anything. It is like the confusion that children feel when they ask their mother to see to their needs, and then try to take care of those needs for themselves so that their childlike efforts get in their mother's way. Surrender means to placidly close the eyes of the soul, to turn away from thoughts of tribulation and to put yourself in my care, so that only I act. Saying You take care of it. O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times) Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus. Amen  September Affirmations: I release my need to control outcomes. I am thankful for all that has come. I am grateful for all that has left. Whatever had to go was not mine. 1 find beauty and value in change. My home is within me, wherever I am. My struggles refine, not define, me. The universe conspires in my favor. I trust in the timing of my life. Uncertainty is a friend, not a threat. I am going to get exactly what I want. I choose peace over worry in this moment.- @wetheurban  A lot can happen in a month.

In the modern world we have a relatively narrow idea of who Jesus was, but things were quite different in the early years of Christianity. Many alternative versions of his life and personality proliferated, while at the same time, several other saviours also competed for attention. These stories are at the centre of a new book Heresy: Jesus Christ and the Other Sons of God by the classicist and author Catherine Nixey, who is joined in conversation for this episode by Rob Attar. (Ad) Catherine Nixey is the author of Heresy: Jesus Christ and the Other Sons of God (Picador, 2024).

Will the Real Jesus Please StandPastor Steve AhlersmeyerRevelation 19:11-16Bulletin

Matthew 8 is filled with miracles performed by Jesus, yet at the end, people ask Jesus to leave. Have you experienced the power of God, yet pushed Him away?

12/20/2023 - Today on the "Wildcard Wednesday" edition of The Simple Truth with co-host Joanne Wright, we're continuing our series on how to better meditate on the Mysteries of the Holy Rosary, with today's focus on the Third Joyful Mystery - The Nativity of Jesus Please help share this video in 3 ways:

It's not just “my opinion” that playing close to the edge of occult involvement is a trap and a lure. It's my very deep conviction after having a full on and horrifying experience when we were young and first married. Steve and I had watched a James Bond 007 show earlier that evening called "Live and Let Die", with a lot of “harmless” voodoo, (incantations and curses being put on people) and "fun" spies disturbing graves, and dark evil spirits attacking them. While we were watching, I had a very quiet but persistent warning inside my heart to “stop watching the show”. I blew it off saying to myself that, “I could handle it…  It was just a show… harmless entertainment.” After we had gone to bed and had fallen asleep, I was awakened by a loud crashing sound outside of our bedroom door, which was our living room. I turned my head to look in that direction and standing in the door frame was a hunched over, very tall, long haired, naked from waist up, long armed, pig snouted with a brass ring pierced through it, hairy being. I thought I was maybe dreaming so I shook my head and rubbed my eyes to see if I was just coming out of a bad dream. Nope. The dark being was still there. My body was paralyzed in fear and I could not move to wake Steve. I spoke to the hideous creature and told it to leave in the mighty and powerful name of Jesus Christ. It just laughed at me and began to move into the room and alongside the bed, heading towards me. I said the same words again and it laughed, saying, "YOU invited me into your home tonight! I have every right to be here!" I immediately knew that I had rejected the warning of The Holy Spirit to not watch the show. I was crying in terror and said, “Jesus… Please forgive me for ignoring your warning! I repent and apologize for blowing you off!” At that point, the demonic thing stopped at the foot of the bed and was very agitated. I was no longer paralyzed with fear and then spoke to it again, telling it that I was forgiven by Jesus and that in HIS NAME, the evil being had to leave our home. It still stood there frustrated and I told it again that the power of Christ and His poured out blood on the cross for my sins cried out against this attack and that it must leave. It started to whimper and walked towards the wall and then, walked right through it, and left. Immediately, Steve woke up and asked what was the crashing sound! I told him everything that happened. He got up and went out to the living room. On the floor was a weather station type of decoration that we had firmly screwed into our wall. It had “somehow” ripped itself off the wall, jumped 8 inches and onto our record player, (yes…. we had vinyls!) sending the needle across the worship record we played often every day. Both Steve And I Knew At That Point That We Could Never Again Justify Or Blow Off The Warning From The Father About Our Entertainment Choices.   We were called to be worshippers and to not ever allow a strongman from hell into our home. Here Are Some Reasons The Scriptures Warn Against Engaging In Any Form Of The Occult: ➡ We are opening ourselves up to spirits other than God's. ➡ We are not looking to God for guidance, but to the occult. ➡ We are turning away from true faith in Jesus. ➡ We are disobeying God's word, the Bible.   The Israelites often made the same mistake and turned from God, although God clearly warned them about this. “When you enter the land The LORD your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or who consults the dead. 
 Anyone who does these things is detestable to The LORD, and because of these detestable practices The LORD your God will drive out those nations before you. You must be blameless before The LORD your God. 
   The nations you will dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery or divination. But as for you, The LORD your God has not permitted you to do so,” Deuteronomy 18:9-14.   Saul, Israel's first king, started out well. He expelled mediums and spiritualists from the land, then violated God's word and his own conscience by consulting a medium (1 Samuel 28:3-25). His end was tragic (1 Samuel 31:1-6).   New Testament Christians turned from sorcery. We really need to let their example serve as an inspiration and a warning. “Many of those who believed now came and openly confessed their evil deeds. A number who had practiced sorcery brought their scrolls together and burned them publicly. When they calculated the value of the scrolls, the total came to fifty thousand drachmas. In this way the word of The LORD spread widely and grew in power.” Acts 19:18-20.   These verses are given to us as warnings. God wants us to learn from the examples he gives in the Bible, and to avoid making the same mistakes. He loves us and wants us to turn from anything that will get between us and the safe spiritual life that he offers. Bible verses warning about mediums and spiritualists: “Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritualists, for you will be defiled by them. I AM The LORD your God,” Leviticus 19:31. “I will set my face against the person who turns to mediums and spiritualists to prostitute himself by following them, and I will cut him off from his people,” Leviticus 20:6. “When men tell you to consult mediums and spiritualists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?” Isaiah 8:19.   So these are the things, these are the scriptures that the Lord has given us, the warnings are there, and also the consequences! I can tell you that ever since then, I have been fully aware of when there's something on television or when people want to watch a movie or, there's people beginning to talk on a New Age level of intellectualism. Or, they talk about some of the things they're partaking in for “medical practices”, or, different kinds of exercise programs, my first thought is, “If it has to have something to do with the occult or if it has to have something to do with “freeing your mind” so that you can relax and so your body is at peace”. These are the lures that the enemy uses to draw us into other gods, and some Christian individuals actually say, “Oh, we're not worshiping the god, we're just doing things with the name of the Lord on it.” The Lord doesn't put his name on anything occult, and he never will, because he is The Sovereign, Ultimate Strength, THE  Sovereign Ultimate King, and he is The Voice that speaks to his people. The word talks about those that know the voice of the Lord, the sheep, they know his voice, but the voice of strangers they will not follow, SO, I encourage you that during this time in the Earth, when the occult practices are literally overwhelming schools, college campuses, exercise regimes, television, movies, videos, (the Super Bowl was packed with these for years) to not engage! Many of the performing artists that are considered “popular musicians” have sold their souls to demonic activity in order to become wealthy. This is how it works many times, you make a pact with the devil for fame fortune and greatness, but there's always a price to pay and that is that you are captive, held captive, and many times these people can't get out without a tremendous amount of threat against them.   I'm Now Going To Lead You In A Prayer. I feel in my spirit that the reason I was to put this on this podcast is that there are some of you who have been saying, “I need to know if this is really bad for me or if I'm being ridiculous, and being too stringent or too rigid”. Let me tell you something. You can never be too rigid against Satanic involvement in your life and you can never be too stringent against saying, “is there anything that I am opening the door to in my home that can affect my children's sleep, affect my health, affect the safety of our home,” because our homes are to be a place of peace for the presence of God, a sanctuary for God to reside on a more personal level. The word says, “don't you know you're a temple of the Holy Spirit?”  When Jesus comes into our spirit, when the spirit of God comes to dwell inside of us after we surrender and we say, “Take that part of my life and use it”, that part dictates from the inside out. But, if we let our mind get in there and say, “I can handle it! I can handle it! It's not that big of a deal! I feel so good! It's good entertainment.  My body feels great when I engage in meditation!” (What kind of meditation?)  Why do you need to meditate on something that is not bringing the presence of God closer to you, and you, closer to the presence of God?  Because our flesh doesn't want to be convicted. Our flesh does not like the discipline of getting still, or studying the word of God, or resting in his presence, and worshiping him. Not unless we discipline it and train it, and grow in his word so we see the gratitude of how, IT is, the voice that controls and speaks to our spirit, causing us to be at peace and to war against the things of darkness. We live in high-pressure times, and the warfare, (yes, it is warfare), it is demonic war against God‘s people, and, the number one thing is fear, anxiety, stress, worry, and then, just go ahead and escape for a little while.  Watch something on TV. The Flesh says, “Go ahead! Watch some of those movies on Netflix that have some horror scenes or a lot of heavy sex. You can handle it! The "F word" is being used a lot, and now many other words have become commonplace. But you see the thing is, WE CAN'T, handle it! Because it gets into our brains, it gets into our minds. It gets into our way of thinking, and it dulls our ability to hear the clear and clean pure words of the Lord. If you don't want to walk with Jesus, 100% and you want a lukewarm walk, then you're going to be susceptible to demonic activity in your life, and unfortunately if you have children, you're opening the door to them, and the Lord talks in that one scripture about not letting children pass through the fire.   We Are Not To Offer Our Children Up In Sacrifice To Demonic Activity, And Yet A Lot Of Parents Go Ahead And Sacrifice Their Kids To A Lot Of Occult Practices Because “It's Hard To Be Different”.   You don't have to have to be locking the doors, and turning the light bulbs out all the time for fear that the devil is coming to get you! But! I can tell you this! You do want to shut your door to occult practices and the doors that come through your iPads, your computers, and your television screens. These are the places; these are the entry points that the enemy uses. Those out there preparing programming, the majority of them in the world are all geared towards doing satanic and fearful programming and if anything, they like to do “shock value” enticing types of programs to bring stimuli and fear! That's how they get better listeners or viewers or people chatting and talking! But their goal is not to bring goodness or peace or safety. Their goal is to get you to come back and be addicted to more or “fascinated”.   This is where that word “fascination” and “magical” comes in.  We just feel like we're mesmerized and drawn in, and we kind of want to know how it works. We want to know how it ends! And then before you know it, your mind has been seared, your conscience has been compromised. Then enters the guilt and then the shame, and then the hiding, and guess who did that? When Adam and Eve engaged with the snake in the garden, he trapped them and lured them, and said, “It's not that big of a deal! You can handle it! Did God really say that to you?”But once they tasted of evil, they were forever changed. They were forever changed and lost their innocence, and forever change mankind. Imagine how much that sin nature is affecting us! Thank goodness that Jesus came to wash us clean and poured out his life, and endured a horrible sacrifice for us, so that we would have a chance to have our minds cleaned. If we are introducing our children to it, imagine the torment, and the things passing down to them.    I encourage you now to pray with me, and if it's not for you, If you don't have this problem, but you're saying, “I agree I've had experiences like this or I know what you're talking about!” If you have family members maybe you have children, if you have a spouse, if you have grandchildren that are engaging in specific kinds of occultic things, (and friends you know with a lot of the PlayStation games and different kinds of Xbox games), there's a tremendous amount of demonic looking creatures and a lot of darkness in those games and yeah, I guess, “you can handle it”, but if you're murdering and killing and having guns shooting and bloodlust all the time, eventually, is it a just a game? Has it become a conquering or have you become desensitized? SO! I ENCOURAGE YOU TO RETHINK WHERE YOUR COMMITMENT TO THE LORD IS.   Do you want to hear the voice of the Lord? Do you want to hear the Lord speaking clearly about the times about the days? Do you want to hear him protecting you, telling you to get in the car and leave now, or “don't go to the grocery store” or “don't go down “that” street”?  He WILL lead you like that and protect you!   Do you want the Lord to tell you his secrets? Did you know that he tells them to his servants? But! He tells them to those that will spend time in his presence, seeking his voice, seeking to know him more.  I encourage you to consider, "which tastes better". The presence of God, and hearing his voice, or a temporary high and excitement, or the thrill that wears off, and then you're buried in guilt, or harassed by something dark?   I'm just going to pray now. I'm going to ask you just to pray with me or agree with me in prayer for those that you know need to be free. Heavenly Father, we come to you and Father you say that you roam the Earth to and fro, with your eyes you are looking all over the Earth, searching for those who will serve you, searching for those who will obey you.  Lord you know all things, you see all things, and you hear all things. You are aware of the assignments of darkness against our families, against our children, against our grandchildren, against our spouses, against our brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles. Father, we stand before you now individually and ask you for a clean heart. We ask you to wipe the slate clean of anything that we may have engaged in. First of all we say we've sinned against you because it's the truth.  If we've done these things we have done them against you. We have put our eyes upon idols or things at the world calls, current and exciting and we think that we're just fitting in, as a part of it or maybe it seems like it's not harmless. It looks like everybody else is doing fine. Lord, l you know the condition of each man's heart, and Lord you know those that are using this as a lure, so Father, we stand before you, and we ask that you would create in us a clean heart, and renew a right spirit within us. Don't cast us away from your presence! Lord, we don't want your Holy Spirit taken from us, because we choose to listen to other evil spirits are divining spirits! Now Lord, we say to you, we ask if there's anything in our lives, anything in the lives of our families that they are engaging in or things that we have become accustomed to, that you would show us clearly and concisely, vividly, the things that we have put our hand to that are not from you. Lord, we repent, we apologize. We are ashamed that we would allow even the whisper of a demonic subtlety to enter into our home. We want to be the stewards, good stewards of what you've given us in children, in our spouses and our grandchildren. So we ask that you would put a barrier between us and the darkness, that conviction would rise up again, that we would heed your voice, and not the voice of a stranger! Lord your word says whether we turn to the left or turn to the right, there you are right behind as a voice saying, “This is the way, walk in it”. Lord, forgive us for thinking that we don't want to be different or strange in this world, that we don't want to be ridiculed. Father we are a peculiar people as you said, you made us and fashioned us to stand out in the dark world, and when we gave our lives to you, we committed that you would be Lord, Savior, King, Ruler, Master over our lives, and we apologize to you for ever touching anything that gave others mastery over us. Now Father, we just come before you, and ask you to wash us clean. Wash our children, wash our grandchildren clean, wash our families clean. Lord, we apologize and ask that now you would make the rudder of our ship turn back out to the direction where we seek you, and seek you alone. That the entertainment choices that we make in the future will be with wisdom and if there's something on television that is dark or dirty, or evil or suggestive, we turn it off, we don't just mute it. We turn it off. We will not let our eyes even watch, nor let our ears hear.  Father. We thank you that you will speak loudly, “Don't do that! Stop now!”  Just like you did to me. Father, we ask that you would speak loud and clear, because sometimes we're dull of hearing. Lord we submit to you, we glorify your name. We thank you, that you deliver us completely and you set us free when we're captive to dark things. We call upon the name of Jesus Christ who is God, who is the Son of God, the Sovereign king, and we thank you that the Holy Spirit is there to convict us of our sins. We thank you Triune being Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for the privilege of being called children of God. Lord, teach us to act like children of God, in our every day lives, in Jesus most holy and powerful name against darkness. Amen.

It is not uncommon for your clients to speak of the presence of "Jesus" within their system. How do you know if it is the real Jesus Christ or a demonic deception? 

In 1956 an American game show debuted called “To Tell the Truth”. Each round of the game introduced three people all claiming to be the same person, and a team of panelists would ask them questions. Those pretending to be the real (usually famous) person would make up answers, while the real person would answer truthfully. The inquiring panelists would then guess which was the real person. The host of the show would conclude by saying, “Will the real (name) please stand up?” and he or she would then stand up thereby revealing their identity and the accuracy of the panelists' guesses.

“When I die, will I live again?” Something deep inside of us cries out for eternity, to see beyond life's brief problems. In this message, we interpret a vital insight from Job's cry of hope while he sat in the dust. Even though Job could not see it at the time, he confidently believed a living Redeemer would come for us.  To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/172/29

Some believe every desire of our hearts should be met—even though many longings are not or cannot be fulfilled. Job understood that there's an infinite gap between God's holiness and our sinful nature. In this message, we hear three cries from Job's heart out of his alienation from God and his mortality. Who can meet our deepest longing?  To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/172/29

Who is this Man?The Miracles of JesusAnd then Jesus got into a boat, and His disciples followed Him. Out of nowhere, a vicious storm blew over the sea. Waves were lapping up over the boat, threatening to overtake it! Yet Jesus was asleep. Frightened (not to mention confused—how could anyone sleep through this?), the disciples woke Him up.Disciples: Lord, save us! We're going to drown!Jesus: Please! What are you so afraid of, you of little faith?Jesus got up, told the wind and the waves to calm down, and they did. The sea became still and calm once again. The disciples were astonished.Disciples: Who is this? What sort of man is He, that the sea and the winds listen to Him?- Matthew 8:23-27 VOICEWe also read of this account from Luke 8:22-25 NASB and Mark 4:37-41 NLT.Are there storms in your life that you've been asking Jesus to calm? Perhaps He is saying, “You calm the storm, my spirit lives within you.”“Who is this man?” is a question all of us will be required to answer. Blessing you to spend so much time with Jesus, that you become like him.Thank You!Becoming a PatronIf you are one of the many who have been blessed by Cultivate Connection, please consider becoming a monthly patron.
