http://christsupreme.blogspot.com/2009/03/preventing-supremacy-of-christ-in-my.html
Preventing the Supremacy of Christ in My Life. Posted by JS Gillespie. Thursday, 26 March 2009. Here is my final defence against the Supremacy of Christ in my Life! Pretend He is Supreme! Only pretend He is Supreme but keep it always on the surface only! Oak veneered chip board! An effective defence against spiritual progress! Consider how superficiality abounds in these two chapters of Marks gospel:. The Tenant Farmers (12:1-12). The Theology and Thinking of the Sadducees. The smell of the sacrifice on ...

Wednesday, 4 November 2009. Romans Chp 6 Vs 1 to 14; 2 Kings 4: 'Alive to God'. Posted in by JS Gillespie. These notes are from a message preached at Bridgend Gospel Hall, New Cumnock. By Dr J Stewart Gillespie. Click here to listen to the message in MP3. 8220;shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? This verse might seem to present a bizarre idea, a strange suggestion. At times grace shields from our horizon the full consequences of our sin. Am I trading on Gods Grace? Did it really matter? IiiIf...

Posted by JS Gillespie. Saturday, 22 August 2009. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it." (Jeremiah chp. If we had made a trip to the house of the potter in Jeremiah 18 we would have found 2 piles of faulty goods:. A pile of damaged goods. A pile of dammed goods.

Christ Supreme: 'stretch forth thy hand' (Luke chapter 6 verse 10)
http://christsupreme.blogspot.com/2009/08/stretch-forth-thy-hand-luke-chapter-6.html
Stretch forth thy hand' (Luke chapter 6 verse 10). Posted by JS Gillespie. Wednesday, 19 August 2009. And incapacity and probably poverty. He cannot work, he cannot labour, he cannot perform a trade and he cannot write. The prospect of full power and function is offered to him, dependant on one simple act of obedience to the word of Christ: "stretch forth thy hand."! But if he could stretch forth his hand he wouldn't need the miracle! And he did so and his hand was restored whole as the other".

Christ Supreme: 'Lord also of the Sabbath' - Luke Chp 6 Verse 5
http://christsupreme.blogspot.com/2009/08/lord-also-of-sabbath-luke-chp-6-verse-5.html
Lord also of the Sabbath' - Luke Chp 6 Verse 5. Posted by JS Gillespie. Monday, 17 August 2009. Pass through the corn fields on the Sabbath they take some of the ears of corn and rub them for food. The Pharisees immediately find fault: "why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbath days? Were the Pharisees right? The reply of the Lord is astounding. The Saviour could have argued:. David got away with something similar so why shouldn't the disciples? Only God Himself is Lord over such a day.

Christ Supreme: If God is Real Why Can't we See Him?
http://christsupreme.blogspot.com/2009/06/if-god-is-real-why-cant-we-see-him.html
If God is Real Why Can't we See Him? Posted by JS Gillespie. Saturday, 20 June 2009. A commonly asked question: if God is real then why does He not make Himself more obvious? Why can we not see Him? The Bible gives us at least 3 good reasons:. The Problem of Essence - Who He is. The Problem of Ethic - What He is. Of Eternity - Where He is. The Problem of Essence - Who He is. Man is Unable to See God. God is in Essence, in Himself invisible :. That is, He is not in Himself perceptible by the natural senses.

http://christsupreme.blogspot.com/2009/03/touch-of-christ.html
A Touch of Christ. Posted by JS Gillespie. Saturday, 21 March 2009. There is throughout Marks Gospel a touch of Christ:. The woman with the issue blood for 12 years, in Mark chapter 5 who touched the garment of the Lord Jesus (5:27) and in so doing touched Christ (5:31). Jarius dead daughter whom the Lord raised up again, by taking her by the hand (5:41). The deaf and dumb man of Mark chapter 7 who felt the touch of Christ on his tongue (7:33). It is in our:. Disease (the blind and deaf and dumb).
