Follow the Teachings of Jesus

Encouraging Christians to Follow the Teachings of Jesus

About

Hello.

 

My name is Peter Oliver and my work is encouraging Christians to follow the teachings of Jesus.

 

For nearly 2000 years we Christians have been adding human teachings to Jesus’ teachings.  I believe these human teachings are obstructing the coming of the kingdom of God.  I believe we have become so weighed down and distracted by these human teachings that many of us no longer love God the way Jesus told us to and no longer love each other the way Jesus told us to.

 

The articles on this site detail Jesus’ teachings on a wide range of topics and contrast his teachings with the human teachings heard in many churches today.  I trust and pray that these articles will help and encourage us to focus on his teachings and his teachings alone.

 

A few personal things:

  • I am a member of  a small, informal, independent church community.
  • I have a Master’s degree in Divinity.  My main area of study is the teachings of Jesus, specializing in the Gospel of Matthew.
  • I’m on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/peter.oliver.980

 

A couple of administrative things:

  • The technical stuff that makes this site work is managed by Lori Moore at Joyful Web Design.  Lori knows exactly what she is doing and does it efficiently, without fuss and at very reasonable rates.  (I’m glad I met her.)
  • The photographs used as backgrounds on the site are by Ken Maley.  Ken is a professional photographer, and also a friend who lets me use his work for free.  However, these images are copyright.  See more of Ken’s work at https://barefootgallery.com.au/

 

I would really like to hear what you have to say about this site.  Whether you agree with the things I’ve said, or not, I’d love to hear from you.  Please email me; peter@followtheteachingsofjesus.com

 

God bless you.

 

Jesus is Lord!
