Speaker: Pete Alwinson # of Discs: 3
Have you ever been offended by Jesus? If so, then you have met the real Jesus. Jesus is known for His hard sayings. He said whatever needed to be said. Why was Jesus so straight-forward? Unlike us, Jesus was not market-driven or interested in polls, He was secure and didn't care what other people thought, and as the Son of God, He spoke the truth as God. Why the hard sayings? The people were just like us today-with hard hearts, closed minds and stiff necks-and He had to use hard words just to get through to them and us. Jesus used hard sayings to soften stone-cold hearts, make up minds and encourage the humble who were on the right path. Jesus is here to help people-to help you-so listen to what He has to say. Within every hard saying of Jesus is a truth, a blessing that we need. Pete teaches on Enjoying Sinners (Mark 2), Steak & Ale Commitment (John 6), Controlling the Controllers (Mark 2), Forgiveness or Torture (Matthew 18) and Unholy Bait (Matthew 6). Powerful truth that will change your life.
