    The Two Roads

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 16, 2006
    based on 64 ratings
     | 15,505 views

    Jesus said there are two roads, two ways. There is God’s way which leads to life and the other way (the popular way) which leads to destruction. This sermon encourages people to seek out the small gate and narrow road that leads to life.

    When Jesus spoke of two roads, two gates, two paths, he was speaking in ways which people understood. Religious teachers then always spoke about there being two ways; one which leads to destruction and one which leads to life. So that part of Jesus’ teaching was not surprising. However, the way ...read more

    "Follow Him"

    Contributed by Ronnie Knight on Nov 10, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,478 views

    We have made discipleship into what we endeavor to become for Christ rather than what Christ endeavors to make us for Himself. This sermon should challenge each hearer to follow Jesus and let Him make them into what He wants them to be.

    We live in a world of the “self-made” and the “self-proclaimed”. We ring this mind set into our Christianity. We make discipleship into what we endeavor to become for Christ rather than what Christ endeavors to make us for Himself. In our efforts to believe, belong and become we spend for to much ...read more
