Luke 8:40-55
Luke 8:40-55 | EV Church | 24/02/2013 | Craig Dobbie
Is there a God and does he care? Nature can over power us, and when we are threatened by sickness & death we are more inclined to call out to God. Who do you trust in a broken world. Jairus and the woman both put their trust in Jesus (small as it is) and Jesus responds in compassion. - True faith rests on knowledge and is meant to grow. - True faith leads to a person throwing themselves on Jesus completely. - People who came to test Jesus went away trapped and confused, but those who come to him on their knees find salvation Yes there is a God and Jesus is the consistent character to look to, to find Him.

Don Carson - Matthew 2:1-12
Matthew 2:1-12 | EV Church | 16/12/2012 | Don Carson
Don Carson reflects on the wise men's visit to Bethlehem and the insights for the gospel of Matthew. 1. Jesus is King 2. Gentiles are included in the gospel.The pagan wise men were Gentiles, as was Ruth (see genealogy in Matthew 1), right through to Matthew 28. 3. Evil forces will try to kill Jesus.Not only Herod, Satan etc. 4. The world Jesus comes to is evil. (Slaughter of infant boys 2 and under in second part of Matt 2) 5. God sometimes uses strange means. (Use of pagan wise men, plus numerous other examples throughout Matthew) 6. The coming if Jesus fulfills scripture. 7. God in His so sovereignty preserves (escape to Egypt, Matt 8:23) 8. At select points in history God intervenes more immediately. (The birth of Jesus includes 5 miracles - God is saying LOOK AT THIS! ) 9. Jesus is worthy of all worship. (The wise men and on the day of judgement 'All knees will bow' ) Pray that you will recognise the Lordship of Jesus, worship Him as our saviour.
