    Count The Cost

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 31, 2022
     | 2,034 views

    One that calls himself a follower of Jesus is not necessarily a follower of Jesus.

    Count the Cost Luke 14:25-33 Jesus never promised that following Him is easy. Again and again, he told all who would listen that discipleship might cost them everything, even their lives. This morning’s passage from Luke 14:25-33 is one of these passages. What does it really mean to be a follower ...read more

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 2, 2013
     | 5,220 views

    Being born again is a far more demanding matter than a casual acceptance of Jesus Christ. The true Christian follows Him, bearing his/her cross.

    Whoa! Man of the Night John 3:1-21 Rev. Mark A. Barber Most of us have heard the story of Nicodemus before and can quote John 3:16 from memory. We have heard about being born again. So we think we already know the story. Nicodemus came to Jesus that night thinking he knew the rules of how one ...read more

    Jesus is the key - the only key - which can release us from our imprisonment to sin.

    THE NECESSITY OF THE CROSS Charles Wesley was born in 1707. He was the 18th child! His parents had one more child after him.

    There are no free rides in the calling of God. One must be decided and determined to get on board and pay the fare.

    It is going to cost something. Luke 9:57-62 Jesus and the disciples have left Samaria in route to Jerusalem. 2 Men sought to follow Jesus of their own accord. 1 Man was asked to Jesus to follow him. Jesus does not candy coat the calling of the ministry. He warns us up front that there is a ...read more

    Bi-Polar Peter (Mark 8:27-33) 1. The term “Bi-Polar” often brings to mind a condition many suffer with, previously known as being “manic-depressive.” 2. But the term Bi-Polar often refers to a set of two extremes. Two sets of bi-polar tastes make up the foundation of ...read more

     | 6,422 views

    The problem in our society is that we have become a people who focus upon the Theology of Glory—a casual in vogue religion that demands nothing and promises everything—instead of a society that lives the Theology of the Cross.

    Sermon for Matthew 10:24-39 June 22nd 2008 This past week I had the wonderful opportunity to spend time with seven of our confirmation kids at Lutheran Hills.

    The cross reveals the holiness and the sinfulness of man, Christ resurrection is the bud of promise and our resurrection is the flower of fulfillment, so the most rewarding end of life is to know the life that never ends.

    Luke 9: 23: “And he said to them all, if any man will come after me let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.” There are three things involved in this scripture: if any man will come after Jesus, let him: 1.

    the cross is not just a symbol we look to or place our faith in. It’s not just what Jesus did for us. It is what Jesus invites us to. It is a way of life for those following Jesus.

    The Call to the Cross Mark 8:34-38 The Cross. What comes to mind when you hear that word? A decorative altar ornament? Something that rests on top of a church steeple?

    A sermon that looks at the cross and it’s impact on our lives.Concludes with a little poem that you might find helpful - I wrote it so it isn’t Wordsworth.
