Wholehearted Devotion - Mark 14:3-9

Taught on | Topic: devotion | Keywords: devotion, gift, negativity, disciples, nard, spikenard, alabaster, anoint

She did what she could—her gift of costly nard in an alabaster flask was broken and poured out to prepare Jesus for his burial. But the disciples condemned her—scolded her for the extravagant gift. Is that how we view those who are extravagantly sold out to Christ? Through this text, we learn from her sacrifice and Jesus' commendation to the heart of what we do be done in extravagant devotion to God.

  1. Introduction
    1. Long way from home in Cleveland, even longer from home in Glasgow
    2. Lonely experience; only knew two pastors in America
    3. Gratitude to God
      1. Gave up family and friends for the sake of the gospel
      2. Left family behind to come to America
      3. Rejoice to be here to expound the gospel
  2. Mark14:1-9, ESV
    1. See into neighbor's windows—darkness magnifies small amounts of light
    2. Darkness serves as the backdrop to light
    3. Jesus was no longer able to walk publicly among the Jews
    4. Light shines out from the home of Simon the leper
    5. Three phrases
      1. "A woman came" v. 3 (devoted)
      2. "They scolded her" vv. 4-5 (scolded)
      3. "She has done what she could" v. 8 (commended)
    6. Devotion of two women
      1. Poor widow put her offering into the box
        1. She put virtually nothing in, yet Jesus said she put more than anyone else
        2. Disciples did not understand what Jesus was really saying
        3. Her sacrifice was measured by proportion (factor of 1 or factor of 10)
        4. Talk about something exactly opposite of what they have just learned (lesson in sacrificial giving vs. architecture)
      2. A woman came
        1. Alabaster flask, contained pure nard, very costly
        2. "Pure nerd who knows nothing about pure nard"
        3. The point is the cost
        4. An ointment used in preparation of the dead
        5. The very costly nature that brought about the disapproval of those in the room
        6. Perfume that cost an entire year's salary
        7. The monetary value was the least of the cost
        8. Alabaster flask kept by the lady
          1. Family heirloom
          2. Dowry for her marriage
          3. Used on the occasion of her own death
          4. She's pouring away her future on the Savior
          5. She was sacrificing her future and her present (social acceptability)
          6. She broke the flask – a gesture of complete abandonment
          7. Impulsive gesture?
            1. Decided on her own to do this
            2. Would not have just gone to a place like this carrying this material
            3. When she was alone, she said "I am going to go there, I am going to do this"
            4. Wonder: Did He say to Himself—did He quote Psalm 23?
          8. The action of the woman
            1. Unique in its thoughtfulness
            2. Costly in its bestowal
            3. Timely in its provision
      3. "They scolded her"
        1. Must be terrific to read this story for the first time; What happened after her action? I wonder what they did?
          1. They bowed humbly
          2. They jumped up and started dancing around the room—no
          3. Indignation, "why was the ointment wasted like that?"
          4. Hopefully, if you just let yourself go in devotion, you're not surrounded by "Eeyores" like she was
        2. John told us that Judas led this charge (see John 12:3-6)
          1. They all joined in
          2. He could not fathom why someone would waste something so valuable
          3. This was the tipping point that led him to sell Jesus for 30 pieces of silver—Judas sold himself for 30 pieces of silver
          4. They all failed to understand the kingdom of God—snorting in anger and disapproval—groaning, growling, miserable creatures—every one of them!
        3. Couldn't they have commended her?
          1. "What she is doing we ought to be doing?"
          2. "After all we're the core team"
          3. Should do a series on the ladies alone in the gospel of Mark, they are getting it while the men are standing around like a bunch of "cloth-eared nincompoops"
          4. "The spirit of these narrow-minded fault-finders is unhappily only too common. Their followers and successors are to be found in every part of Christ's visible church. There is never wanting a generation of people who decry what they call 'extremes in religion,' and are incessantly recommending what they term, 'moderation' in the service of Christ. If a man devotes his time, money, and affection to the pursuit of worldly things, they do not blame him. If he gives himself up to the service of money, pleasure or politics, they find no fault. But if the same man devotes himself and all he has to Christ, they can scarce to find words to express their sense of his folly. Saying, 'He is beside himself. He is out of his mind. He's an enthusiast. He's a fanatic.'"— J.C. Ryle
          5. The fragrance in the room testified against their calculated pragmatism
          6. If she had showed up a little early to share with the group about what she was going to do, there probably would have been no record of her extravagant devotion—they would have talked her out of it
            1. Don't get sold out for God
            2. You're gonna make the rest of us look bad
        4. Missionary biography is largely ignored in our day – young people don't know
          1. Gladys Aylward
          2. Helen Roseveare
          3. C.T. Studd
          4. Missionaries now are done after four weeks – short-term
          5. When you go there, you may never come back, you have to be prepared to stay there
          6. Missionary convention in 1910 filled to capacity vs. the Missionary convention of 2010 which wasn't a shadow of the 1910 convention
          7. C.T. Studd
            1. Born into high society in England

            4. His father was saved through the evangelist Dwight L. Moody
            5. He became a Christian
            6. He married
            7. Had his wife say a poem each morning, "Dear Lord Jesus you are to me dearer than Charlie ever could be"
            8. Make sure that our nearest dearest are committed to Christ more than to us
            9. He went on mission with all his multimillions
            10. He set back a portion of the money for his wife
            11. She insisted that God can take care of her and he needed to put her money in too
            12. Gave her "pot" to William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army – foundational in Booth's commitment
            13. C.T. Studd walked out and into the night, the rest is history
          8. Eric Little
            1. He died as a relatively young man
            2. School teacher in mainland China under the Japanese occupation
            3. Burned his life out for God
          9. Comfort zone
            1. Some want to live within the sound of church and chapel bell

      4. "Leave her alone"
        1. Jesus is quoting from the Law
          1. There will never cease to be poor in the land (see Deuteronomy 15:11)
          2. Jesus ties it into what they know
          3. The poor are an ongoing obligation and opportunity for ministry and grace; hence, in the story of Ruth and Boaz, glean the edge of the fields: that was the provision for the poor (see Ruth 2)

          1. But the disciples use it as an excuse

            5. And, female intuition – there is a radical difference between men and women
            6. Jesus simply explains to these "tin-heads" on her behalf, "Verily, I say to you" just like in the story of the woman with the two mites (see Mark 12:43)
          6. She had done what she could; a perpetual memorial
      5. The spirit of the Pharisee mistakes grace for waste
        1. Jesus told the story of two sons to confront those stuck in their own righteousness (see Luke 15:11-32)
        2. Elder brother said, "Why that waste on him?"
        3. Jesus said, "You don't understand grace—the wonder of what this story is all about"
        4. Did the disciples need:

Okay, before we do anything else, I want to have your best smiles, because there is no other place that I know, in the entire universe, where you can get a crowd of people like this on a Wednesday night to hear somebody teaching the book of Leviticus.

[points camera and pans the audience]

So—I,—this is, this is, come on. Hang on. I'm going to switch it to video. This is, this is a video now. Okay, let's, let’s go, just—[loud cheering]. Yes, that's just after I finished speaking at Calvary Chapel. Yes, they really loved me. Yes, yes. Nah, I made that up. Nah, this is just—that's amazing. Okay, good. Good. Well, you can tell that I'm really jazzed to be here. It's a privilege to come. I've known about this place for a long time, and so to get a chance to actually come and see it live is something for which I am very thankful.

I am a long way from Cleveland. I'm a lot longer away and further away from my home in Glasgow. And when I came to America in 1983, on the third of August 1983, I didn't hardly—I think I knew two pastors in the entire country. Neither of them were anywhere close to me. One was in southern California and one was in Milwaukee. And I can tell you that it was a jolly lonely experience to settle into that context there in suburban Cleveland.

And now, twenty‑nine years later, I can hardly contain the sense of gratitude that I have to God for the way in which he has proved true to his Word. You know where it says that if you ever give up your family, or your friends, or anything for the sake of the gospel, which is, surprising as it will be to you—that's what I did to come to America. Everybody thinks they want to come to America; I didn't. I wanted to stay in Scotland and ah but I had to leave all my family behind.

And here I am tonight in the context of a Christian fellowship such as I can hardly imagine. And just to be able to engage with the men this afternoon, and the ladies, and then to be caught up in the praise this evening, and to have the opportunity to open the Scriptures with you now; I, I , I rejoice in the privilege. I, I esteem your pastor in the gospel, and for, for many more reasons than I will take time now to recount.

I would like to read, not from the book of Leviticus, but from the Gospel of Mark, and from chapter 14. And the songs have been well chosen this evening, I think. If they were not chosen in reference to what we're about to read, then that makes it even more remarkable than if they were. We'll read from verse 1 through to verse 9. Somebody inevitably asks, "What version of the Bible are you reading?" I'm using the English Standard Version as I, as I read this evening.

Mark 14 verse 1, "It was now two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to arrest him by stealth and kill him, for they said, 'Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar from the people.' And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table, a woman came with an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly, and she broke the flask and poured it over his head. There were some who said to themselves indignantly, 'Why was the ointment wasted like that? For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denari and given to the poor.' And they scolded her.

“But Jesus said, 'Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you will not always have me. She has done what she could; she has anointed my body beforehand for burial. And truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has been done, will be told in memory of her.' " Amen.

Well, just a brief prayer. Father, what we know not, teach us. What we have not, give us. What we are not, make us, for your Son's sake, amen.

Well, we've reached that time of year when it's possible to walk around your neighborhood and see what the inside of your neighbors' houses are really like, unless, of course, they've closed the drapes. But if they haven't, the darkness of the outside makes it possible to get a little inkling of what's on the inside. Don't misunderstand me, I'm not a Peeping Tom; I've not been going up people's driveways and you know looking in their front window.

But when the night is dark outside, it only takes a relatively small amount of light to attract us and to draw us in. And here as Mark moves inexorably towards the events of the crucifixion, the darkness of what is taking place on the outside, as it were, serves as a backdrop to all of the light and to all of the beauty that shines out from the home of Simon the leper.

The gospel records for us that the chief priests and the scribes were seeking for a way to kill Jesus. You would notice that at the beginning of the chapter: It was two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and they were looking for a way to kill Him. The parallel gospels tell us that Jesus was no longer able to walk publicly among the Jews, openly among the Jews. The reason being that they had given orders to anyone who found him, to anyone who knew where he was, to let them know so that they might arrest him.

And, then, from the darkness of that surrounding context, and the darkness which is going to return in verse 10 with the unfolding story of Judas and his betrayal, it is against that dark background that what we find here in the home of Simon the leper shines out. And what I'd like to do is take just three phrases from these verses that we've read in order to help us to navigate the passage.

The first phrase is: "And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table"—here is the phrase—"A woman came." A woman came. That's in verse 3. And then, the phrase that you find in verse 5: "They scolded her." And then, in the response of Jesus in verse 8: "She has done what she could."

Or, if you wanted in just three words: The first word would be devoted; the second word would be scolded; and the third word would be commended. First of all: the action of the woman, the reaction of the group, the summation, and the commendation of the Lord Jesus. So then, let's begin by noticing the way in which this is introduced to us, with a simple, straightforward recording phrase: As he was there, at the table "a woman came."

Now, it is surely worth paying attention to the fact that in either side of chapter 13 what we have is the record of the devotion of two women. You will notice, if your Bible is open as mine is, that chapter 12 has ended with the record of the lady who came and put her offering into the box. "A poor widow," verse 42 of chapter 12, "put in two small copper coins, which make a penny." And Jesus uses that as an opportunity to instruct his disciples.

He says to them, "Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box." And his disciples, of course, would not immediately get that. How could it possibly be that a lady, who has put virtually nothing into this box, has put in more than all of the rest who have put significant amounts into the box? You see the disciples had a very difficult time understanding the values of the kingdom despite the fact that they had been on the receiving end of the instruction of Jesus, that they had seen the miracles of Jesus; nevertheless, they still did not get it.

They still did not understand what Jesus was really saying when he pointed out that the first would be last, and the last would be first. They didn't fully grasp it when he told them that he came to seek out those who were lost, the least, and the last, and the left out. And all the time he is again, and again, providing them instruction.

Of course, the answer to the question that would be in their minds is that she had put in more measured by sacrifice, not measured by amount, the sacrifice that she made, measured by proportion. Because two cents out of two cents is a factor of one. One thousand out of ten thousand is a factor of a tenth. And so, he confronts his disciples with the devotion of this lady, and then as soon as you turn to the beginning of chapter 13, you find that they're doing what many of us are tempted to do when the sermon is over, when the study is finished: talk about something exactly other than that of what we just learned.

And as they came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, "Look, Teacher, what wonderful buildings these are." So Jesus has just given them a lesson in sacrificial giving, and they want to talk about the architecture as soon as he has explained to them. Perhaps, it is just that reflex action that many of us know when the Spirit of God brings something home to our hearts, and immediately we're looking for some superficial way to move it, to get it far from us as we possibly can. Because we know that what we've heard is vital for us, and yet, we resist it.

Now, I say to you again that Jesus' disciples were slow to grasp these things. And so, you then have the Olivet Discourse and all of the amazing explanation of chapter 13 as some of the most demanding verses in the entire Gospel of Mark. And then you come out of that Olivet Discourse with all of the prospects of the return of Jesus, and the destruction of the temple, and all of these magnificent things. You come into the darkness of the anticipation of the crucifixion itself, and then, suddenly the door opens into the home of Simon the leper, and "a woman came."

Now, the interesting thing we're told is that she "came with an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly." So Mark tells us about the container. It was made of alabaster, which was a substance that in itself had some kind of an intrinsic value. He tells us about the content of it that it was made of pure nard. And he tells us about the cost of it, it was very expensive.

Now, we had a little time with some pastors this afternoon, encouraging them in relationship to the exposition of Scripture. My advice to them, if they were expounding this passage, would not be to try and impress their listeners with everything they know about pure nard; because what they know about pure nard is very little at all, except what they have read in all the books that everyone else can read. But in order to try and impress with our knowledge of Himalayan vegetation, and the kind of plants that you can find in northern India, the pastor spends in inordinate amount of time explaining the significance of this.

It would be wrong for me, then, to use in inordinate amount of time explaining why the pastor should not use an inordinate amount of time in not doing this. Because the congregation is looking at you and saying, "You are a pure; you are a pure nerd who knows nothing about pure nard. You don’t Pastor, you don't know the difference between a dandelion and daffodil, so do not waste your time on trying to explain to us about Himalayan vegetation."

What is the point? The point is the cost. The point is the cost. It was "very costly." In some of the translations it's "perfume"; here, it is "ointment." It could be that which would be rubbed in, in terms of a massaging situation. It would be that which is used in preparation for the burial of an individual.

So the point is simply this: that what this lady brought was not the kind of thing that the average lady would be carrying in her purse. It's not the kind of thing that she would have picked up at Nordstrom on the way for an evening at the house of Simon the leper. No, no. It was the very costly nature of the thing that brought about the disapproval of the people who were in the room.

Well, if you think about it, it makes sense, because perfume or ointment that costs a year's wages cannot, under any circumstances, be regarded as ordinary. Can it? No. See, so you're a sensible group. You're thinking it out. That's what you're supposed to do. Is there a husband here who has bought his wife perfume that cost him an entire year's salary? Of course not, and if you are here, I suggest you do not put up your hand, but come for counseling immediately as the time is finished.

But the monetary value of this was the least part of the cost, because this alabaster flask, as it's described, would have been in the home of a lady like this for one of two reasons. Either, perhaps—even a family heirloom—it would be kept by her as a dowry for her marriage so that all of the fragrance that is represented in it may be hers to enjoy and her husband's to explore on the time of their betrothal and wedding. Or it would be kept by a lady like this to be used on the occasion of her own death when somebody prepared her for burial. That's the significance of the cost.

What the lady is actually doing in what she does is pouring away her future on the head, on the body, of the Lord Jesus Christ. She is surrendering security, a year's wages worth, in one small alabaster flask. The kind of thing somebody would say, "Now, whatever you do, don't get rid of that because if it becomes difficult financially, you always know that you will have this to fall back on."

If that is what it was for her, she was about to say, "I will have nothing to fall back on because I am going to make this available to the Lord Jesus." Her personal plans, her aspirations, her ambitions, and not only that, she wasn't simply sacrificing future, but she was sacrificing her present.

Judging by the way in which the people react to her, her social acceptability in the moment was jeopardized by what she did. Because you will notice that she didn't just pour out a wee drop and then put the lid back on the thing, or screw the top back on. No, we're told that she broke the flask, and she poured it over his head in a gesture of complete abandonment. She knew that this would be no longer useful for any other occasion, no wedding, no funeral, not now.

Why? Because she had taken it all and she had given it to Christ. She had, if you like, been singing on the way there, "I'll stand my soul, Lord, for you surrendered, for all I am is yours." That's what she's saying in this gesture; we've been singing about it tonight.

And if the breaking of the flask is viewed as an impulsive gesture, a gesture, if you like, of self‑forgetfulness in the moment, it is clearly a self‑forgetfulness in the moment that may be traced to a premeditated decision in a silent place unseen by anyone else. She had to have decided that she was going to do this. She had to, on her own, make that commitment.

She would not have just gone ordinarily to a place like this carrying this material. So somewhere in the secret place of her life, as she reacted to all she knew of Jesus, whatever all that was—and I think it was a lot more than any of the commentators give her credit for. But when she was alone she said to herself, "You know, this is what I am going to do no matter what people say, no matter how they react to me, even if they call me a fanatic, even if they think I'm nuts. I'm going to go there and I'm going to do this," and she broke it.

I wonder when the Lord Jesus sat under the sensation of that, I wonder did he say to himself—because remember where he is, and remember where he's going. Did he say to himself—did he quote Psalm 23? "You have prepared a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil. Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, Father, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." The action of the woman: unique in its thoughtfulness, costly in its bestowal, timely in its provision, devoted.

To our second phrase: "They scolded her.” They scolded her. Now, the trouble with knowing your Bible is that you know your Bible. You say, "That sounds, like, ridiculous." What I mean by that is this: Sometimes I wish I could read my Bible for the first time all over again, because I know the end to these stories.

But it must be terrific to be reading this story for the first time and, and you're reading down, and she came with a thing, and she broke it all over his head. And you and you maybe just look away, and then you're thinking, "I'm going look back and I can't wait to see you know what the reaction was." And so you put your hand over and say, "Now, I wonder what they did?" "And then they bowed humbly in the presence of Jesus, stirred by her devotion." Or, "And then they all jumped up and started dancing about the room and started hugging each other at such a manifold display of devotion."

And then you look down to see what it actually said, and you were like, "What?" "There were some who said to themselves indignantly, 'Why was the ointment wasted like that?' " Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. The whole place is filled—Winnie the Pooh is there with the honey, and here comes Eeyore right in the back of it, "Uh, uh, uh, uh."

Incidentally, in passing, if you ever just let yourself go for God, hopefully you're not surrounded by a bunch of Eeyores, because it's going to be tough for you. She was subjected to these angry glances, to the whispers of sharp disapproval. They regarded her action as extravagant, as wasteful, as a misuse of resources. That's all they began to say, "There were some who said to themselves indignantly."

And John tells us that Judas led this charge. They all joined in, but Judas was at front of it. He could not fathom why it was that somebody would, from his perspective, waste something so valuable. And this incident is the tipping point in the expedience of Judas that sends him out, in response to this extravagance, to sell his soul for thirty pieces of silver. Judas didn't sell Jesus for thirty pieces of silver; Judas sold himself for thirty pieces of silver.

He couldn't stand the fact that this woman would do this. And he was not alone because they were grumbling and mumbling to themselves, once again, pointing out that they failed to understand the value of the kingdom of God: Snorting at the lady as an expression of anger and disapproval, grumbling to one another, groaning, growling; miserable creatures, every one of them.

Couldn't they have commended her? Couldn't they just have said, "You know, what she's done is what we ought to be doing? After all, we're the core team, we're the group, we're his chosen twelve, and a lady is here again. We just had that other lady with the tinkling and the brass trumpets at the temple. We tried to divert that one with the talk about the temple, and that got us the whole of chapter 13. Now, we come into chapter 14, and we're at it again, and here comes another lady."

Someday I'm going to do a series on, on the role of the ladies alone in the Gospel of Mark. It is significant. The men are standing around like a bunch of cloth‑eared nincompoops, and the ladies, the ladies are getting it again, and again, and again.

Listen to what J. C. Ryle says about this kind of response, their scolding response; it's quite a long quote, but stay with me: "The spirit of these narrow‑minded fault‑finders," says Ryle, "is unhappily only too common. Their followers and successors are to be found in every part of Christ's visible church.

"There is never wanting a generation of people who decry what they call "extremes" in religion, and are incessantly recommending what they term "moderation" in the service of Christ. If a man devotes his time, money, and affection to the pursuit of worldly things, they do not blame him. If he gives himself up to the service of money, pleasure, or politics, they find no fault. But if the same man devotes himself, and all he has, to Christ, they can scarcely find words to express their sense of his folly. Saying, 'He is beside himself. He is out of his mind. He's an enthusiast. He's a fanatic.' "

Well, that stings a little, doesn't it? The broken flask, the fragrance in the room testified against their calculated pragmatism.

If this lady had shown up a little early so that she could share with the group what she was planning on doing that evening, there probably would be no record of her extravagant devotion, because they would have talked her out of it. Somebody would have stood up and said, "Not going to do it, wouldn't be prudent. Not at this juncture." Right?

There's always somebody there to say, "No, no, no, we can't get sold out for God. No, no, you don’t, you can't be doing that. No, no, no, you're going to make the rest of us look bad. Let's just keep it at a nice, moderate level. We don't need you coming in here with that stuff, smashing up a year's worth of wages and pouring it out like that. That's not good." She was scolded on account of the fact that her gratitude to Jesus caused her to give up this treasured possession, that's why they scolded her.

Now, missionary biography is largely ignored in our day. I don't find young people, I don't find teenagers reading missionary biography. I can run through missionaries of the twentieth century and be met with some of the blankest stares you've ever heard, you've ever seen in your life.

You just mention the people's names, and they look back and you like: "Who's that? What team did he play for? Was she in a band? I don't know. Who's she?" Gladys Aylward. "Never heard of her." Helen Roseveare. "Never heard of her." C. T. Studd. "C. T. what?" No, you see, missionaries, missionaries now, their pretty well done after four weeks, short‑term. "Were short‑termers." Oh, really? How does that work? Why don't you just join National Geographic and take photographs, because that seems to be what you're doing most of the time in any case.

But if you want to burnout for the gospel, if you want to sell out, there's no closed country in the world. You can go there, but you may never come back from there. When you go there you got to be prepared to stay there.

The missionary convention in 1910 in Edinburgh was filled to capacity with people absolutely totally committed to the evangelization of the world. The missionary convention in 2010 was not a shadow of 1910, and the preoccupation of people in 2010 had far more to do with wells, and AIDS, and sub‑Saharan Africa, than it had to do with telling men and women that Jesus Christ is a Savior for sinners. And people today are absolutely amazed when they run up against these kinds of things.

I mentioned C. T. Studd. I'm not going to embarrass you by asking you if you know who he was, but you know now because I'm about to tell you, and then you can, then you can Google him, and then you'll know more than I know before the evening is out. But you'll find out that he was born into high society in England. He went to Cambridge University. He was a, a cricket player for the nation of England. His father had become a Christian, I think, from memory, as a result of the evangelistic endeavors of Dwight L. Moody. He, in turn, became a Christian, and along the way married.

He had his wife say a little poem each morning when she did her devotions. He wanted to make sure that she loved Jesus very much, so that when he was dead then she would know that Jesus was her anchor. And so she had to say this little thing: "Dear Lord Jesus, you are to me dearer than Charlie ever could be." That was his name, Charles. It's kind of sweet, isn't it? It's very important. Our wives need to know that. That Jesus has to come first in our affections.

We won't stand at the bar of God's judgment holding hands. We're not going up there as couples. We're not going there as families. We will stand there alone. We need to make sure that our nearest and dearest are committed to Christ, more committed to Christ than they are to us. So Studd decides he's going to pack it in and go to Africa. He's worth a fortune, so he gives it away, except he keeps back 100,000 pounds for his wife, the one that he's taught to say the little poem.

She finds out—incidentally, a 100,000 pounds in today's money is multi‑, multi‑million dollars, okay. So she finds out he's kept a little pot for her, actually, a big pot for her. She says to him, "Hey, Charlie, what's all that stuff about Jesus and everything and meaning more to me? Why didn't you give my pot away as well?"

He said, "Well, I wanted you to be okay if anything happened to me." She said, "Well, do you think that Jesus can only look after you, he can't look after me? Give my pot away as well." And he said, "Well, who will I give it to?” And she said, "Give it to William Booth," the founder, the founder of the Salvation Army. And that, then, was a foundational piece in Booth's commitment, not only to reaching the poor with the means whereby they might be fed and clothed, but with the means whereby they might come to faith in Jesus Christ. And C. T. Studd walks out and into the night, as it were, and the rest, as they say, is history.

You have the same thing in Eric Liddell. You have the same thing in Eric Liddell. The story of Eric Liddell is not the story of the 1924 Olympics and the fact that he ran for gold. It is the story of the fact that he died as a relatively young man as a school teacher in mainland China from which he never came back. Under the Japanese occupation, died there as a teacher of those boys and girls, burned his life out for God, and people said, "Wow, you know, fair enough, but I just want to live in the comfort zone."

"Some want to live within the sound of church and chapel bell," said William Booth, "I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of hell." This is how C. T. Studd had it figured out, similar, I think, to this lady; she in prospect, he in retrospect.

He wrote in his journal: "If Jesus Christ be God and died for me, then no sacrifice that I could ever make for him could ever be too great." That's the logic of the kingdom. If Jesus Christ is God and died for me, then if I were to give my entire life away, to give everything away, it could never be too great a sacrifice. You could never outgive God.

All over Cleveland and, I'm sure, all over Albuquerque as well, there are names on buildings because philanthropy is the name of the game. Gates, Buffett, the billionaires are now the philanthropists of the world. "Look how wonderful we are, giving it all away." It used to be: "Look how wonderful we are earning it all." And it didn't feel so good just earning it, so they thought, "Well, maybe we'll see how it feels giving it away." Put your name on a building and so on. Who can gainsay that is wonderful, were thankful. Every hospital and so on, that's fine.

But listen, that's not the issue. "To convert one sinner from his way is an event," said Smeaton, "of greater importance than the deliverance of a whole kingdom from temporal evil." And the woman came and they scolded her. That brings us to our third and final phrase.

Jesus, the recipient of her devotion, the observer of their reaction, now pronounces her commendation. "Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them."

Jesus is actually quoting from the Law, might even be Leviticus, I can't remember. Because in the Law it says, "There will never cease to be poor in the land." Jesus is actually tying this in to what they knew from Old Testament Law. The Law itself said, "There will never cease to be poor in the land." That didn't mean that the poor should be disregarded, but rather that the poor were an ongoing obligation, and an ongoing opportunity for ministry and for grace.

Hence, you have, for example, in the story of Ruth and Boaz—remember? And Ruth goes into the fields of Boaz, and Boaz says to his men, "Make sure that you don't pick everything up on the fringes of the field so that Ruth may be able to glean the stuff that is left over. " Why was that? That was the provision for the poor. That was in order that they might be able to be the beneficiaries of the generosity of the landowner.

Jesus is making that point very clearly, but the disciples are using that as an excuse. John actually says that Judas was the one who said this, and the only reason that he said it was because he was a thief. That's what he says.

He actually calls him out. The disciples, bless their hearts, are just always on the wrong side of the equation. Aren't they? You know, here's an opportunity for them to go, "Jesus, let's all hold hands now and, and just have a great evening. This has been fantastic, and this lady—." No, no they're like, "I can't believe she did that. That's unbelievable." But, well, it's nothing new. "Jesus, we were out this afternoon and we saw a man, he was, he was casting out demons in your name, but we told him to stop."

Jesus says, "Don't tell him to stop." So one of the guys goes, "See, I told you not to tell him to stop. That was a dumb idea, tell him to stop. I told you don't tell him to stop." "You did so—you told him to stop as well. What are you talking about?" "If he's not against us, he's for us."

"Hey, get these children out of here would you, please. Get them back. We're doing evangelistic work here. Get that thing. Pardon? Yeah, like I said, 'Bring them up, bring them up.' No, closer, closer to Jesus. No, no, I'd actually like some there on his knee. That's it, yeah. Told you not to tell them to get back."

"Hey, we've just come back from the Samaritan villages, wasn't good. No, we didn't have a good time. Jesus, do you want us to tell fire to come down from heaven and consume them?" Who are these people? No wonder Jesus says, "Have I been so long with you and still you do not understand?"

Aren't you really encouraged by this? I mean, let's be honest. Everybody's going, "Yeah, I'm with the lady. I'm with the lady. Oh, yeah, I'm the alabaster jar person." "Good for you, because I'm not—I'm with these guys. I find myself in these fellows, not her. I admire her, but I'm with them."

On the wrong side of the equation 60, 70, 80 percent of the time. How amazingly patient is Christ? How kind and tender to us. How phenomenal it is that he doesn't take the whole shooting match and tell them, "You know what? I'm going to get an entirely new team. I'm dumping you. You guys are done. Forget even waiting for the crucifixion or anything, you're done right now. I'm going with a new group. In fact, I'm going with no group. I'll get another group later on."

So it's just perfect, I mean, it's par for the course. And they scolded her. And Jesus said, "What do you think you're doing? You just don't get it, do you? You flat out don't get it. She has done what she could."

Judas is about to walk out of here, out of the sunshine, as it were, out of the brightness, out of the illumination of Simon the leper's home, into the darkness. John says, "And he went out. And it was night." He's about to go out and to say, "What will you give me? What will you give me?" No true follower of Jesus is supposed to be asking that question. "What do I get out of this, if I, if I give this to you? What if I sell myself out for you?"

He couldn't stand it. "Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done something beautiful." The word there for beautiful or good is kalos. Agathos is intrinsically good, kalos is beautifully good. So an injection from the nurse is agathos, but if she's a nice nurse, it might be kalos. So I could be intrinsically good, but not nice. But then I could be nice, and that's the word that Jesus uses here. "She has anointed my body. Her act of humble, costly bestowal is preparing me for burial."

Now, think about this for just a moment. This was an essential part of the burial of any Jewish person; no Jewish person would be laid in a tomb without having been anointed for burial. Jesus knows that the events that are about to unfold are going to afford no opportunity for his body to be anointed. Remember, it says that on the first day of the week the women went to the tomb with the spices to try and fill in the gaps. "She has anointed my body beforehand for burial."

Now, nearly all of the commentators, in fact, I think all of the commentators say that this lady was doing something that she didn't really know she was doing. That she was just, you know, expressing her devotion, and Jesus in his words here identifies the real significance in light of his death. And that may well be true, but it may equally well be true that she knows exactly what she's doing. Why not? Why not?

Well, how would that happen? The same way that one thief on the cross suddenly said, "We are up here getting what our sins deserve, but this man has done nothing wrong?" Where I did that come from? It came from God. God showed him that. So there's no reason to believe that the intimacy of this lady's walk with God would deprive her of a knowledge of what was going on.

Apart from anything else, you have female intuition. And I don't mean that in a, in a facetious way at all; I mean that sincerely. That the female gender, and yes, there is gender, have you heard of gender lately? There is a distinction between male and female. There is a radical difference between a man and a woman; a difference that God wrote into our very lives.

So there is no reason for us to assume that because these tin‑heads don't get it that this lady does get it. And Jesus is simply explaining, on her behalf, exactly what has taken place. "Truly," he says, "I say to you." Interestingly, that's the exact same phrase that he had used at the end of chapter 12, when he asked his boys to come and sit down and look at what has happened with the lady who has just put the two copper coins into the temple trumpet. He used the very same phrase: "Verily, I say to you, this lady has put in more than all the rest." Here we are again: "Verily, I say to you, she has done what she could."

What a wonderful phrase: "She has done what she could." And Jesus says, "What she has done will serve as a perpetual memorial of the true response to the One who became poor in order that we might become rich."

Our time has gone, and I'm going to draw it to a close, but just as I'm thinking about this: the spirit of the Pharisee mistakes grace for waste: "Why would you waste this?"

"You don't understand grace, how could it possibly be wasted?" Do you remember Jesus told the story to confront those who were stuck in their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else?

"A certain man had two sons, and the younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth unto to me.' And he divided unto them his living. And not many days after, the younger went and took his journey into a far country; and there he wasted his substance with riotous living. And there was a famine in the land, and he began to be in want. And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country who sent him into his field to feed pigs. And he fain would have filled his stomach with the husks that the pigs were eating, but nobody gave him anything at all.

"And when he came to himself he said, "I will arise and I will go back to my father, say to him, 'I've sinned against heaven, and in your sight I'm no longer worthy to be called your son. Just make me as one of your hired servants.' " And he arose and he came to his father. And when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. And he started his speech: "I've sinned against heaven and . . . ." And the father said, "Hey, cut that out for now. Bring the shoes, he needs shoes. Bring the robe, he needs a robe. Get the pig, we're having a party. Start the music, we're going to dance. Let's get the thing going."

"Meanwhile, the elder brother was out in the field and he heard the singing and the dancing and he came and he said, 'Why that waste on him? Why would you waste that on him? Why would you be a prodigal God and disperse all that on him? I've been here slaving in your house all this time, and you never even gave me a miserable, little party, let alone a huge, big party. ' "

What's his problem? Jesus is teaching the Pharisees: "You don't understand. You don't understand grace. You don't understand the wonder of what this story is all about." And the disciples were as close to Christ as any twelve guys could ever be. They heard his preaching, they saw his miracles, and right up, and in, and through the crucifixion they still didn't get it.

Do you think they needed the Holy Spirit to come on them? Do you think they needed the power of God to embrace them? Do you think they needed for the Holy Spirit to bring them into an understanding of all these things that he taught? Of course, the exact same need that we have, the exact same promise of God. The self‑contained, the sensible, the scolding onlookers fade into obscurity. It's the rash extravagance of this lady, this humble lady, that is known "wherever the gospel is proclaimed."

Here were are, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Mark 14 being fulfilled in our hearing, you know. Jesus says every time the gospel is proclaimed people will be talking about her. Of course they will, because long after human eloquence and human wisdom are forgotten, when the deeds and the titles of emperors and kings and presidents are completely buried in the dust of history, this beautiful, significant, and timely act will be remembered. Because the pathway to lasting honor is to honor Christ.

C. T. Studd, remember, you all know C. T. Studd: "Oh, yeah, we know—yeah, we know C. T. Studd." C. T. Studd heard somebody say this couplet, "Only one life, 'twill soon be past, only what's done for Jesus will last." He heard somebody say that, and he couldn't get it out of his mind. And he wrote a relatively long poem on the strength of that, with the final two lines in every stanza being those two lines; in order to write it into his heart and into his recollection so that he might give all that he had and all that was his.

Loved ones, listen here tonight, there’s only one question that is left for every one of us: What are you planning on doing the rest of your life? What do you plan on doing? What do you want to do with it? What do you want to do with your money? What do you want to do with your gifts? What do you want to do? Do you want to sit around and harrumph and pumph when somebody sells out for Jesus, or do you want to applaud, or bow, or join in?

I'm sixty years old; yesterday I was sixteen. Today I'm sixty. If I run my allotted course out of Scripture, I'm in the final decade of my life. The final decade of my life. I have less in front of me then I have behind me. I'm not putting a challenge on you that I don't face myself: "What are you doing in Albuquerque on a Wednesday night? Why did you go there? Do you go there just because you like people listening to you? " It's a fair question. Why do you do what you do?

And the woman came bringing with her an alabaster flask of pure nard that was very costly. Her action was unique in its thoughtfulness, costly in its bestowal, timely in its provision, challenging in its impact, and lasting in its memory: devoted, scolded, commended.

At the end of the day it doesn't matter what you say about yourself. At the end of the day it doesn't actually matter what others say about us. At the end of the day there's only one thing that matters, and that is what God is going to say about us.

That is why Jim Elliot said although he was studying for a Bachelor of Arts degree at Wheaton College, he was actually studying for his A.U.G. 2 Timothy 2:15: "Study to show yourself approved unto God." He said, "That's what I'm really studying for, I want to be approved unto God." Little did he know that within relatively short‑order, the waters of the Curaray River would mingle with his blood and with the blood of his colleagues. As he finally now lives out what he wrote in his journal: "He's no fool who gives up what he can't keep, to gain what he can't lose."

That is the economics, if you like, of the Kingdom of God. Look at this potential tonight. Look at the vastness of the world that we live in. Don't be despondent about kings and presidents. Where I come from we had an empire once, much bigger than this, it's gone. This one will go too. It's probably on its way right now, but that's not what we're here for.

We're here for the kingdom. We're here for the gospel. We're here because we have in front of us a picture in Revelation 7 of a company that no one can number, from every tribe, nation, people, and language who are gathered before the throne of God. And many of those people are our friends and our neighbors here in Albuquerque. So, let's give ourselves away.

Let's pray. Let's just take a moment and ask God to banish from our recollection anything that is unhelpful or untrue, and then ask the Holy Spirit to burn into our conscience and lives all that is of himself. It's relatively easy for us to sing the magnificent words that we've used in the precursor to our study of the Bible; it's another thing to actually live them out when we're on our own in the factory, driving the truck, working in the bank, loading the laundry, making the lunches. Show us, Lord Jesus Christ, what a privilege it is to know you, to love you, to be devoted to you. Fulfill your purposes in our lives and in this place, we pray for Christ's sake, amen.

How Jesus prays for us
John 17
Bill Holdridge
Info
Message Summary
Ever wonder why or how Jesus prays for us and that if we know He does, how should we really be acting and thinking? Our guest speaker Pastor Bill brings out the vital points of prayer teaching how Jesus prays for us. The Apostles and Disciples hear the beautiful words of their master as Jesus speaks to His Father about us. As we hear and read the prayers of Jesus we must never forget that Jesus is full of thoughts of us and He will be praying for those who love him. So, do you want to know what Jesus prays for you?

Message Summary
Paul was a man who went to the people; he did not wait for the people to come to him. Are you waiting for those to hear you preach or teach or are you willing to go out and bring the gospel to men? Senior Pastor Tom Stipe of Crossroads Church in Denver brings us a vital message from the book of ACTS concerning our approach in preaching the gospel and uses Paul as the example of how a single man brought the gospel to folks in his sphere of influence. Pastor Tom challenges us to not be afraid or have fear when we do preach the gospel. Are you willing to step out and be confronted by the public, friends or loved ones? God did through Jesus, so why not you?

Info
Message Summary
Do you believe every thing you see and hear? Do you know how to discern what is true and what is false? Would you recognize a false prophet? Senior Pastor Paul Scozzafava, from Calvary Santa Fe, gives us three import things to understand in our daily walk of our Christian life that will help us discern what is good and right and who it is that is not. Be sure of who you are and who you belong to, for God, through Jesus, will have it no other way. So, do you know?

Ezra 3:1-7
Greg Opean
Info
Message Summary
Who among us has not failed? Who among us can truthfully say I can make it on my own? The Israelites failed and walked in disobedience, but God used and allowed circumstances to bring His people back to a place of worship. Pastor Greg Opean presents a stimulating message of returning to the God of our lives as we read in the Book of Ezra how the people met and rebuilt the alter of God to renew their worship with God.

Beloved, How Shall We Live?
2 Peter 3:1-13
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
How shall we live if we are so loved? How should we act if we are given so much? And how is it that we still cling to things that will be burned up? Peter advises believers on how to live in the face of scoffers and mockers. He urges the believer to live in a way that is unmovable in perilous times. Pastor Dave Row delivers a stimulating message from 2 Peter on how we are to live knowing that the Lord is coming. If we know this then, Beloved How Shall We Live? The answer is holy, wholly, and ready at any moment for the coming of our Lord!

Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
Do you drink from the communion cup to merely quench your physical thirst or do you drink it in communion with the body of Christ and with the Lord as your focus? Paul writes to the Corinthian church stressing the importance of putting aside selfishness and coming together for the right reasons. Pastor Dave Row brings thought provoking insights into the real communion of the body of Christ and why we join to celebrate the remembrance of Jesus. So, do you simply enjoy the meal on the table or do you enjoy the One who put the food on the table?

Love Never Fails
1 Corinthians 13
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
Is it true that All you need is love? The rock group The Beatles seemed to think so, Paul the Apostle thought so, and you should also think so. Love is what God is all about, for love is the very nature of God. Pastor Dave Row speaks to us about love, what it is, and what it is not. Pastor Dave shares from the book of I Corinthians, Chapter 13, breaking down the elements of love. If there is one thing you can count on concerning love, it is that Love Never Fails. Pastor Row presents three aspects of love that we should know, including The Significance of Love, The Substance of Love, and The Superiority of Love.

Guest Speaker Don McClure
Psalms 46
Don McClure
Info
Message Summary
God tells us to be still and to know that He is God. Do you rest in Him when the storms come, or do you run to the confines of your mind to figure things out? David knew God and the peace and rest that can be found in Him. Pastor Don McClure reminds us of a different world where we should dwell as we grow in our understanding of the things God would have us to do in times of trouble. Psalm 46:10 tells us to be still and know that He is God. Are you too busy to know God on a deep level or do you dwell in the throne room of your Lord and receive His strength for your refuge? God has a plan for you and it can only be for good. Step into His world and know Him.

In Psalm 51, David speaks about how God will use a contrite and broken heart. Pastor Chip Lusko brings insight into this Psalm as we hear how brokenness forms a beauty that God delights in.

Eyewitnesses
1 John 1:1-4
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
News media resources count on names such as "Eyewitness News" or "Action News" because these names say something about their mission.

1 John 1:5-2:2
Dave Row

Can light and darkness join as one? Can God take away our darkness and bring us into the glorious light? The Apostle John writes in 1 John that God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all.

Does God Speak Today?
Psalms 19
Scott Richards
Info
Message Summary
Does God really speak to us? If so, how does this happen? If it does happened, how do I know what He's saying? These are good questions and a young King David learned the answers to these questions in God's outdoor classroom. God speaks to us in a still small voice and gives us His word to confirm His love for us. You can know that God does speak to us today by becoming His child and reading His word. In these ways we can see how God leads us from glory to glory. So, how about you? Are you tuning in on the right frequency or are you still dialing through the world of stations?

Behavior vs. Bravado
1 John 2:3-11
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
Some questions are hard to ask sometimes, especially if those questions are directed at us. Questions like "Do we really love God?", "How do we know we love God?", and "What does it look like to love God?" can really be tough. Many good men strive to do what is right, but unless we know God and we follow His commandments we do not know the truth. John writes words aimed at helping us understand the free will choice we have to make daily to love God. So, if you really want to understand what it means to have a deep love for God or to know where you stand, just listen to what John has to say to us through the Holy Spirit.

Samson - a life of Compromise
Judges 13-16
Brian Michaels
Info
Message Summary
What does it take to keep a promise or vow? Do we really understand the commitment of keeping our words? In the book of Judges Samson clearly demonstrates that he neither understood nor took seriously the instructions of his parents concerning the keeping of the Nazirite vow. We will see that compromise leads to more compromise and ultimately to our demise. But God is gracious and if we repent and turn from our evil ways God will, as He did with Samson, grant us grace. So, when you sign that paper, say those words, or make that promise…, be sure you understand what it's all about.

Permanent Love vs. Passing Lust
1 John 2:12-17
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
As a believer, are you ready to choose between the passing pleasures of sin or staying the course even if you are called to suffer? The way you live your life is a testimony to the internal nature of your convictions. Any way that leads away from the Lord leads to destruction. This world and its destructive lusts will come to an end, but one who is continually doing the will of God has a front row seat to eternity. Where is your seat located, in the aisle of destruction or on the front row or eternity?

Message Summary
Jesus Christ is risen! It's not about a fancy holiday outfit, candy, or anything other than the fact that He is risen. Are you passionate about your walk with Him? Are you committed to do the things He calls you to? Considering the love He has for each one of us, the sacrifice He made for each one of us, and the depth of knowledge He has about each one of us, can we offer anything less than a passionate commitment to everything He has for us? Do you really want anything less than His best in for life? Join us for a very special Easter message by guest teacher Ryan Dobson, entitled The Power of Passion.

Info
Message Summary
Are you willing to stand up for the cross of Christ, or are you content to hear only what you want to believe? How do you know who the real believers are, and if you do recognize them are you willing to follow? John writes in 1 John 2:18-29 about how to recognize the real Christian and how to spot the false one. The marks of a true believer are clear to all as John speaks of the telltale attributes of the Holy Spirit in the believer's life. So, are you among the true believes or are you sitting in with those who really oppose the Gospel of Christ?

The Power of a Resurrected Life
Philippians 3:10
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
What power do you know of that can raise a person from the dead and then give a promise to do the same for you? We all were dead in our sins, but through the resurrection of Christ we now have the re-birth needed to live. Paul writes to the Philippians about the Power of a Resurrected Life as part of the knowledge we need to live a life before those who do not know Jesus. Paul showed us, as Christ did, that to live is to die and to die is to live only through a resurrected life. There is power we can know only if we know the One who bore our sins and gave us eternal life. If you want to know that power, the Apostle Paul has some words for you.

The Children of God pt. 1 - Godly Living
1 John 3:1-9
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
How would you describe the state of your family life? Is it close, comforting, and encouraging? Or is it not quite what you had always hoped for? As Christians, we are part of God's family, the family of all families. We are bathed in His love and have access to all of the benefits of being His children. But if we abandon His invitation to join this family we automatically become members of the family of sin and there simply are no benefits associated with this family. So think about which family portrait you would like to be part of – God's Family Portrait or Sin's Family Portrait.

The Divine Code
2 Timothy 3:16-17
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
All of us have read books and some of those books stirred our hearts but did you know that the Bible can stir your heart to know and understand the deep truths of God? In II Timothy we read that all scripture is given by the inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, correction, reproof and instruction in righteousness. Why? So that we may know how to dispel false doctrine and equip others to stand in the faith they have been given. What do you think about the word of God and do you believe that all scripture is given by the inspiration of God? Timothy writes to us by the Holy Spirit that we can know and be assured that the word of God is the Word of God…, and that's a fact you can believe and know, so get into the word and live.

The Love of God - Part 2
1 John 4:15-21
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
What are you afraid of and why? Did you know that God says to fear not? Did you know that your past and future is in God by Jesus Christ and you have not need to fear? Perfect love casts out fear as the Apostle John writes in First John Chapter 4, if a man fears he is not made perfect in love. All of God's love is for us and in us, so if you really want to know God's love you must abide in Him and He will abide in you. Yes, God is for you and loves you completely, but, will you let Him?

Info
Message Summary
Have you overcome the world? Do you know how to overcome the world? Is your family strong enough to overcome the world? The Apostle John writes in First John Chapter 5 concerning how we can know that we have overcome the world. But what is it to really do just that? John says, it is our faith in God and in His Son Jesus Christ that overcomes the world. The question here is; do you know who God is and His Son or do you just know of Him? Your family will get you through this life but only Jesus can bring you beyond this world to His Father and all of it by His love, do you want this love or will you turn and trust in your worldly family? Think about it.

We all have a need to be loved and taken care of and Jesus is able to do that, Jesus told a story that is repeated in three of the four gospels about taking a child in His arms. This story is asking you to be that child and to see others as little children who are seeking a father, the Father. So, are you being taught by the Holy Spirit as a little child or are you too old for that…, think about it.

Praying 101
1 John 5:13-15
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
Do you believe that God hears you or do you just believe God does not want to hear from you? If God hears you do you really believe God will grant what you ask of Him? The Apostle John in 1 John 5, writes to us concerning having confidence that if we ask anything in His name (Jesus) He will hear us. Is that really true? John knows it to be and so can you. God wants you to know that He is available to you anytime and for any reason…, you just have to come and ask. So, as you think about this ask God to show you and you will see that God is able to do all things for you according to His will, but it all start with meeting, asking and believing in Him.

Sin, Death and Idols
1 John 5:16-21
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
Sin affects us all and without the knowledge of God's word we would not know sin and be lost. John writes in chapter 5 concerning sin and how we are to understand sin and its nature. Sin all started with pride in Lucifer and in the disobeying of Eve and Adam but all sin can be dealt with by one simple act…, repentance. Are you in a state of sin or are you in the loving peace and care of Christ? God calls us to be set free from sin and live free. So will you accept God's gift or grace or will you hold onto what you think is right?

Rewind, Remember, Resolve
1 John 5:18-21
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
Abiding in Christ will keep you from the wicked one for God wants us to understand Him and know that we are born of God. Are you born of God? Can you really say, I am His and He is mine? This is the confidence we have in Christ, that Jesus died and rose again by the will of God and in this we who believe are born of God. John writes to us in 1 John 5 concerning who we are in Christ and how we can and do know that we belong to God. So, have you learned that your faith overcomes the world or are you still looking to the things of the world and its wisdom to help you overcome? Know this, God is yours, you only need to ask and receive Christ, will you?

Character in Conflict - When Motives Collide
3 John
Dave Row
Info
Message Summary
How often do you spread the news of someone you know who is walking in Christ that is having a great impact on others to the strengthening of the faith of many? In Third John the elder Apostle gives us two great examples of men who have kept the faith in unselfishness, impacting many to Christ. But John also exposes a man who thinks of himself first instead of bringing Christ to light. These people are selfish, prideful and without wisdom, from these put yourself at distance. Do you spread the faith in humility putting the light on Christ or are you keeping the praise for yourself putting light on you?

Have you ever felt alone, totally abandoned? While we may feel that way from time to time, we have never truly been forsaken, because Jesus endured it on our behalf. Alone on the cross, forsaken by the Father, suffering at the hands of sinners, Jesus sacrificed his life for those who tormented Him. How will you respond to Him?

Israel's Dark Hour
Ezekiel 8
Chip Lusko
Info
Message Summary
False thoughts, false worship, and false gods - in a vision from God, Ezekiel was brought face to face with the flagrant idolatry plaguing ancient Israel. It had crept into the temple of God and the hearts of His people, and their spiritual condition demanded radical action. Join us as we uncover the roots of idolatry and discover that its long shadow reaches into the church and even our own hearts.

The Conditional Clause for the Resurrection
1 Corinthians 15:12-19
Gino Geraci
Info
Message Summary
In an era of skepticism and doubt, the resurrection comes under continual attack, but it's not an issue exclusive to our culture and time. From the beginnings of the faith, the resurrection has been challenged, although it is one of the best documented events in history. Can the dead come back to life? Let's explore the evidence, and the consequences of this essential doctrine or our faith.

Message Summary
Jesus spoke in parables to reveal truth to believers; He revealed heavenly truth through the earthly stories. In this message, we examine Jesus' Parable of the Soils, where Jesus addresses how the good news is rejected or received. Let's look at the telling, the reason, the explanation and the power of the story, and be challenged to have well-watered, weed-free hearts, that are ready to receive the implanted Word.

Raul Ries

We often have a pretty good grasp of how fleeting time can be.

Eternal Life: The Deepest Yearning of the Human Heart
John 17:1-5
Sean McDowell
Info
Message Summary
There are different ways of knowing. We can know "that," and have an understanding of something; we can know "how," and experience something; and we can know "personally," and have a relationship with someone. In John 17:1-5 we will dissect a portion of Jesus' prayer to His Father, before being handed over to crucifixion. In this passage we learn that Jesus' suffering and death would reveal the glory, or character of His Father, and that through His death and resurrection, we can know God. Knowing God is intimate and personal, and by studying what it is to know God, we'll understand that eternal life comes from being in relationship with the only true God.

Sinners in the Hands of an Angry Leader
Numbers 20:1-13
Neil Ortiz
Info
Message Summary
As a follower of Jesus, how are you representing God? In Numbers 20:1-13, the people contended with Moses and Aaron. They did not trust God and the leadership He appointed. Likewise, Moses and Aaron allowed their anger and frustration to control them. They rebelled against the Lord and misrepresented Him to the people. As we consider this text, we learn that as ambassadors for Christ, we must be gracious and submissive both in our leadership and in our following.

As we celebrate Mother's Day with the wives, daughters, sisters, and mothers all around us, K. P. Yohannan paints a portrait of his mother and the influence that she had, both in her family and in India.

Guest Speaker Josh McDowell
Josh McDowell
Info
Message Summary
The Jewish scribes had such great reverence for God's Word that it was of the utmost importance to preserve the Scriptures accurately. They took great measures—memorizing 4,000 laws before they could begin to write—to ensure it would be copied, pronounced, and interpreted precisely. Josh McDowell presents to us one of the rarest scrolls in the world, called the Lodz Torah Scroll, showing us that God will always provide the means for His sacred Word to be available to His church.

How to be a Hero of Faith
Hebrews 11
Robert Furrow

Message Summary
In Hebrews 11, we read testimonies of men and women who demonstrated extraordinary faith. When God commanded them to do something, they obeyed. From their examples, we learn that in our weaknesses, we are made strong, faith requires courage to face difficulties, and obeying the Lord is about using the faith we have rather than the amount of faith we possess.

Your Life: an Epic Fail Compilation or an Epic Feat?
Genesis 37-50
Neil Ortiz
Info
Message Summary
Time and time again, Joseph encountered hardships that were not his doing: harsh treatment, betrayal, false accusation, and apathy. But Joseph was always mindful of God and remained obedient despite the unfairness he met. We learn it was his reverence of God that gave Him peace to get through every situation—and God raised him from a slave to the second in command over all of Egypt. His life seemed to be an epic fail, but as we study his reactions, we see how God turned his life into an epic feat.

How To Live The Blessed Life
Bob Shank
Info
Message Summary
As we search the Scriptures to find out God's thoughts about generosity, we discover that we are called to make giving an integral part of our lives. Through two passages from both the Old and New Testament, we see how generosity is a call to obedience from the Lord as well as a demonstration of faith on our part. When we give generously, we become more and more like God as He blesses us, and the world can see that our God is alive and moving.

Truth Defined and Described
2 John

When we think of the twelve apostles, we sometimes get the idea that they were an elite, holy group of men who effortlessly followed Jesus.

Spring Cleaning
Romans 12:1-2
Chip Lusko
Info
Message Summary
“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God” (Romans 12:1-2). “If we truly want God to reveal Himself to us and His purpose and plan for our lives, we need to be empty of our own agenda and set aside our own preconceived ideas. God will never force His way into our lives. His desire is to transform our hearts and renew our minds to reflect His character and wrapped in unselfish love towards one another. He cannot fill us with ‘Him-self’ and His attributes if we are already full of ‘our-self’.” —C.S. Lewis

There Is Room
Luke 7:36-50
Taylor Bronisz
Info
Message Summary
There is room for everyone at the feet of Jesus. When Jesus was eating at the house of Simon the Pharisee, a woman interrupted their dinner. Simon and his guests saw themselves as self-righteously superior to this woman and did not make room for her or truly welcome Jesus into their hearts. The woman, on the other hand, realized her desperate need for forgiveness and life change—and she left with a new identity and renewed future.

Message Summary
The body of Christ loves people and wants every person to spend eternity in heaven rather than hell. In this teaching from Luke 16, Pastor Raul Ries invites us to consider the decisions we're making in our lives and ask, What should I be doing in life as I get closer to death? Seeking after God should be the number one priority in our lives, but in order to seek His kingdom we first must be in the kingdom—and that requires us to make a decision for Christ.
