The Last Night of Christ's Life

Dennis McCallum
2 Corinthians 7:10

Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss and Peter denied Jesus to His face. Each failure brought about a response that teaches us God's way to deal with failure. Peter's failure led him to Godly sorrow, resulting in repentance and God's forgiveness. Judas' failure led him to worldly sorrow, resulting in self-pity and condemnation.

Treasure in Earthen Vessels

Gary DeLashmutt
John 12:24

Our human desires and urges are what holds back the aroma of Christ and the Gospel, this is the earthly vessel. Paul speaks of different kinds of sufferings that can cause cracks in our vessel that let the aroma of Christ come out and uplift us and the people around us with his love and truth.
