Jesus Wept

Helping others manage chronic anxiety and unwanted obsessive thoughts can be difficult, especially since symptoms of loved ones are easy to overlook. In an Education Week presentation, team-taught by the authors of Jesus Wept: Understanding and Enduring Loss Dennis D. and Joyce M. Ashton, taught about how to recognize potential symptoms of anxiety disorders and the “do’s” and “don’ts” of assisting those with mental disorders. “Anxiety disorders can disrupt the ability to function at home, school

Now you would think that a fellow who has preached thousands of sermons could, with all the ease in the world, talk about any Bible subject he chooses. I don’t feel that confident about any Bible subject, but I am more confident about certain ones than others. Anyway, I don’t feel completely adequate to talk, or write on the subject of Heaven, The Home of the Soul. I suppose it is because so little is known about God’s home. Where would you begin if you were preaching a sermon on heaven?

oldest apostle who ever lived. He was about ninety-six years old when he wrote: “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.” (Rev. 21:1) He was the disciple that Jesus loved best and his name was John. At one time he was known as the “son of thunder,” but God had calmed that temper in him and he wrote time and again that the brethren ought to love one another. (I, II, and III John) John had learned what it was

Jesus too, knew what it was to grieve. Yes, God in the flesh who had the power to restore life to the dead, still grieved at the loss of His close friend and shared in the grief of the family. In the Gospel of John, there is the account of Lazarus, the brother of Mary and Martha. Lazarus became sick and the sisters sent for Jesus right away. They knew of His ability to perform miracles, and as a close family friend, assumed that He would jump at their summons. But Jesus did not come right away-He

Testament. Matthew (also called Levi by the disciples in the Gospel of Mark and Luke) wrote the Gospel about Jesus Christ the Savior during AD 60-65. Matthew was as well educated professional in the field of collecting taxes in the area of Capernaum. It was there that he saw Jesus Christ and responded to the calling to be with Jesus. He references 130 Hebrew Scriptures, emphasizing that Jesus is the fulfillment of the messianic prophecies and types of the Old Testament (Hindson & Towns, 2013). Matthew

I. John 11:33-35, “33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubledb, 34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see. 35 Jesus wept.” A. When Jesus saw Mary weeping because she believed if He had been there her brother would not have died, and the Jews were weeping with her for them same reason, this lack of faith caused Jesus to be troubled to the point of snorting in anger in His

identified as “the disciple whom Jesus loved”. Scholars believe that the book was written sometime between 90 to 110 A.D. The gospel of John begins unlike the other synoptic gospel’s by starting with the story of John the baptist, Jesus’ cousin, it includes the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus and then even includes events after. This book is different from others because of its layout of the stories of Jesus and how John tells them to his audience. In the book of John Jesus talks about his divine role

typical “Jesus walking on water” story that we all know and how lucky Peter was that he got to walk to Jesus on the waves. Nothing was special about Peter. He was a sinner just like you and me, but Jesus favored him. He has more mistakes written about him than (I think) any other disciple. Why? Jesus didn’t want the rich and the elite. He wanted filthy sinners who were desperate for Him. And no greater character is there who portrays this like Peter. Before the story even takes place, Jesus tells Peter
