Miracle
180: Possessed Pigs (Walking with Jesus Series: #042: Mark 5:1-20)
Jesus exorcises multitudes of demons from two men who have superhuman strength and live as wild men among the tombs. But why does Jesus cast the demons into pigs? Pastor Hollandsworth explains the origin of demons and the remarkable significance of this miracle for national Israel and for us today.
171: Hijacking the Kingdom (Walking with Jesus Series, #033: Luke 7:11-35)
Satan manipulated the religious leadership of Israel to hijack Christ’s offer of kingdom inheritance by teaching the Jews were automatic inheritors by way of their heritage in Abraham. They literally kept multitudes out of the kingdom. Pastor Hollandsworth shows how the same is happening today throughout evangelical Christianity.
165: The Significance of Number 38 (Walking with Jesus Series, #028: John 5:1-15)
On the Sabbath Jesus healed a man at the Pool of Bethesda who had an infirmity for 38 years. Pastor Hollandsworth demonstrates that the religious leadership of Israel missed the critical importance of this sign, and that multitudes of church-age believers are missing it as well.
148: A Man Like No Other (Walking with Jesus Series #014: Luke 4:31-44)
Christ’s healing ministry – including exorcisms – not only confirmed His authority as the Son of God, but also pointed to the Messianic kingdom. Pastor Hollandsworth shows the connection between miracles and the kingdom, defines the “gospel of the kingdom,” and explains the origin of demons.
147: Christ’s Near-Death Experience (Walking with Jesus Series #013: Luke 4:14-30)
In the synagogue at Nazareth, Jesus read from the Isaiah scroll, applying the text to Himself, by concluding with the statement, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Pastor Hollandsworth discusses the glorious nature of Christ’s ministry, as described in Luke 4:18-19, and explains why the people marveled at Him in the synagogue, yet moments later were eager to throw him off the rocky cliff at the edge of town.
