    Hosanna

    Contributed by John Kapteyn on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 34 ratings
     | 5,361 views

    Introduction 1.

    Introduction 1. As we began worship today we heard the children sing Hosanna. As we read the liturgy for baptism and as the vows were made, we too said "hosanna." And as we read God’s word we heard both the people along the road into Jerusalem and the apostle Paul cry out "Hosanna!" 2. Some of ...read more

     | 8,140 views

    Those who bear fruit have more freedom and fulfillment in life.

    In the Bible, a fruitful life is described as one that is producing good things. God’s Words teaches a lot on this topic so it must be very important to God. God wants to bless your life. He wants you to be so blessed that He produces fruit in your life that will go on blessing you and the ...read more

    This is the second of a series that Christ taught to expose the heart of the pharisees and those that rejected Him.

    THE PARABLE OF THE HOUSEHOLDER – Matthew 21:33-46 How dangerous is it to reject Jesus? We have been studying the parables that Jesus taught. Last week we begin the study of a group of three parables that Jesus told in response to the questions that the Pharisees asked in regards to His authority. ...read more

    This sermon will outline Jesus’ views of Israel’s position in God’s kingdom, and the danger we have of being replaced like Israel.

    THE PARABLE OF THE TENANTS Matthew 21:33-44 Key Verse and Theme: “Therefore I tell you the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit. He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but on whom it falls will be crushed.” (Matthew ...read more

    It does no good to fill the ranks of the army of God with soldiers whose ever shifting loyalty is to the ones who makes them feel the most comfortable.

    Your Declaration of Independence! July 4, 2004 Matt. 21:33-46 “When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the ...read more

    based on 28 ratings

    Father Dave’s Sermon on Matthew 21:33-46 & the East Timorese Martyrs. The nature of God, the price he’s willing to pay for His ’Vineyard’ and the wait for the justice that will eventually take place.

    Wednesday is the feast of ’the Saints and Martyrs of Asia’. It is a tragic irony that on the very day it is celebrated, more East Timorese martyrs will probably be added to their number! A Protestant Christian leader has been killed. The Communion of Churches in Indonesia has confirmed that the ...read more

     | 11,053 views

    God has spoken to us repeatedly and in various ways, but supremely in His Son. How do we respond?

    God has spoken! Can you imagine how you would feel if you got a letter from the Queen? (I mean a real one, not just some standard letter sent by her officials.) How would you treat it? Would you throw it idly aside? Would you risk it getting lost or stained with tea? I don’t think so! You would ...read more

    The Triumphal Entry: Lessons From Matthew 21

    based on 30 ratings
     | 13,812 views

    Jesus "triumphal entry" according to the Zechariah 9:9 prophecy was for the purpose of personally demonstrating the apostasy of Israel, culminating in the pronouncing of judgment on Israel in the "woes" and lament of Matt. 23. In Matt. chapter 21, His bas

    Jesus Betrayed

    based on 46 ratings
     | 4,334 views

    Sermon describes the betrayal Jesus suffered in his final week, and how it compares with our betrayal of Him.

    JESUS BETRAYED! Most prisoners have a unique understanding of how Jesus felt in his last days. They arrive at the courthouse, only to see one of your best friends talking with the prosecutor. “Betrayal” summarizes well humanity’s response to Jesus. Please read Matthew 21:6-11; 33-40 The story ...read more

     | 5,499 views

    This is a sermon with a strong call to stewardship as a response to God’s eternal love. This includes prayer, presence, gifts, and service as well as how we live our lives.

    Paonia United Methodist Church October 9, 2002 Rev. John Nadasi Matthew 21:33-46 The parallels are clear. The Pharisees knew he was talking about them. They had been given a vineyard to work in. Overtime, they claimed the vineyard as their own, No longer open to the outsider, but instead, a ...read more

    Would You Too Reject Him?

    Contributed by John Herrmann on Oct 4, 2002
    based on 44 ratings
     | 5,815 views

    In the parable of the vineyard and the "rejected cornerstone of Christ", we see how an ever near and patient God reveals himself in Creation and redemption -- working through the Holy Spirit to keep us from rejecting him.

    It would seem the vineyard image is appropriate for this time of year. I’ve read that the Napa Valley is expecting a great crush this year. In Amador County, here in California, there is weekend tasting and festivities in honor of the harvest vintage. Maybe some of our people are there right ...read more

    Bearing Fruit

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 8, 2002
    based on 74 ratings
     | 26,200 views

    What happens when Jesus inspects your life? He cursed the fig tree because it didn’t bear fruit - why? And how do we bear fruit for our Savior?

    I have three fruit trees in my backyard. I would not call it an orchard – just three trees – a plum, a pear, and an apple. It’s not an orchard, nor am I an orchardist – or whatever you are when you have an orchard. I think my trees know it too – they get together every winter and say "how are we ...read more

    The Wicked Tenants

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 12, 2002
    based on 119 ratings
     | 13,114 views

    The Biblical metaphor of Jesus being the cornerstone which the builders rejected conveys the understanding that without Jesus we can do nothing (John 15:5).

    THE WICKED TENANTS Text: Matthew 21:33-46 In modern day, we tend to think of a cornerstone as a stone that is inscribed and placed in the corner of the foundation of a building that marks the beginning of the building. The way that the Bible uses the word cornerstone means much more than ...read more
