The post A Higher Perspective! By Nicky Manley appeared first on Living Rock Church.

Whilst Mary of Bethany was pouring out her love for Jesus, someone else in that same room saw it as a waste. He saw that as “money down the drain”, that would have been put to better use – such as sold for money and put into the money bag, so he could have access to the funds. This one was none other than Judas Iscariot, one of the 12 Apostles. But for what reasons did Judas do what he did? Was he disappointed in Jesus and perhaps saw Jesus as letting him down, or was there another motivating factor? In the end, who was it that planned and orchestrated all the events surrounding the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ?

The post Matthew 26 Pt.3 – A Traitor In The Midst! appeared first on Living Rock Church.

At the home of Simon the leper of Bethany, a meal was prepared for a large group, who included Mary and Martha and Lazarus, and Jesus and His 12 disciples. During the dinner, whilst Jesus was reclined at the table, Mary (according to John 12) came with an alabaster flask of very expensive perfume of pure nard, and poured it out on Jesus’ head and also anointed His feet. We aren’t told why Mary did this, but Jesus didn’t see it as a waste, as some of His disciples did, but rather as a beautiful act done for Him. In fact He said that she had done this to prepare His body for burial. And also that what she had done would be told wherever the gospel was preached. It is interesting to note that there is no further mention of “anointing” of the body of Jesus for burial, or after He died, to be found in Matthew’s Gospel.

The post Matthew 26 Pt. 2 – Anointed For Burial! appeared first on Living Rock Church.

When people generally think of “church”, the first thing that comes to mind is a building made of bricks and built by the hand of craftsmen. But not so the church that Jesus said He would build. He is using rocks, but not stones cut from the earth but living stones or living rocks, that He fits together to build His church. So today Eddie spoke about The Church and what it means to be part of The Church, which is also described as The Body of Christ.

The post Aspects of The Body of Christ! appeared first on Living Rock Church.

After His Olivet Discourse (Matt.24-25), Jesus predicted His coming death, for the fourth time, but this indicating more specifically, when it was going to take place. But in reality, these things had been PLANNED IN ADVANCE by God, and in His FOREKNOWLEDGE and COUNSEL, He had PREDESTINED what was DEFINITELY GOING TO TAKE PLACE. That means, that things were running according to God’s timetable and not mens’!

The post Matthew 26-Pt.1 – The Planning and The Plotting of Jesus’ Death! appeared first on Living Rock Church.

This is the final part of Jesus’ Olivet Discourse. So that bring this sermon series in total to 12 parts, starting at Matt.24 and ending at the end of Matt.25. If you recall the question or questions that Jesus’ disciples asked him in Matt.24:3, you are doing well. As R.C. Sproul said, the three hardest doctrines in the Bible are undoubtedly those of Judgement, Hell, and Predestination. And it will drive some people nuts to find all three of these doctrines mentioned in one sermon. Well, here it is, at least we find the reason why people believe those doctrines are taught in this last section!

Here is another section of Jesus’ Olivet Discourse, that begins in Matt.24:1 and finishes just before Matt.26:1. Each of these last two sections stress the need for Christ’s disciples to be ready and prepared before His return. But it doesn’t mean sitting idle, ready and prepared. It means getting down to business and using the resources that the Lord has distributed to each of us, each according to our ability!

Starting in Psalm 1:1-6 Eddie traces how God’s Word and His Counsel is to be applied to our lives, and how we should be careful of all of the “other voices” that bombard our minds daily, and how we should reject the counsel of the wicked.
