  • Jesus Before All Else

     | 276 views

    To be a true disciple of Christ, to be assured of eternal life, we must never be ashamed to confess His holy name. We must also be willing to follow Him always, forsaking our own desires and even our family and friends.

    I have entitled our message, “Jesus Before All Else.” Author Mike Mazzalongo wrote a book entitled Jesus Above All Else. He says that Jesus told His followers, “in no uncertain terms, that in order to be His disciple they must place Him above all else.” He explains that “above all else” means ...read more

  • Be Ready For Persecution

    When facing persecution, Jesus' disciples (believers) must have endurance and wisdom, be certain to look like Jesus, preach the Word fearlessly, and trust that God is in control. What have we to fear when our life is in His hands?

    I would like to open with an illustration from the book Jesus Freaks: Jaun and his wife Maria felt God calling them to become missionaries in Columbia. Once, while travelling between villages, Jaun met about fifty armed guerillas. He took the opportunity to share the gospel with them, and twenty ...read more

    Jesus gives His followers advice on how to respond, and even reply, in the face of persecution. He also assures them that they will be guided and empowered by the Holy Spirit to accomplish their mission.

    I have entitled our message today, “As Sheep Among Wolves.” The title is based on the very first verse of our passage, where Jesus told His followers, “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves” (v. 16). Now, I am going to go ahead and start with an exposition. The word sheep ...read more

  • Are You Good Enough?

    Jesus met a young man who thought he kept the entire Law. Most people believe they are going to heaven when they die, and they base their conclusion on being a morally good person. But, is anyone really good enough to go to heaven?

    I have entitled our message this morning “Are You Good Enough?” And the question for us to consider today is this: “Is anyone good enough to go to heaven?” An article from the Los Angeles Times says, “An overwhelming majority of Americans continue to believe that there is life after death and ...read more

  • An Extraordinary Commission (Part 2)

    Jesus gave His disciples a commission to go and preach; to not only do good deeds, but use words. He would provide them food, clothing, and shelter for their journey, and the Spirit would guide them to those receptive to the gospel.

    I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this will be Part 2. The word “extra-ordinary” means “outside, above and beyond the ordinary,” which is what we saw in our last message, when Jesus gave His disciples “power over unclean spirits” (Matthew 10:1); and ...read more
