    The Gate may be called Beautiful, but the scene was anything but. What can we learn about helping those in need from Peter's decision to give?

    We’ve been studying the book of Acts and have reached a series of events that covers two chapters consisting of three scenes: at the Beautiful Gate, in front of the council, and gathered together with the believers. We’ll examine one scene each week because I know no one wants me to ...read more

    We praise God when life is good, how do we respond when facing oppostion? We look at the aftermath of the miracle at the Beautiful Gate.

    It’s easy to praise God when things are going well, isn’t it? The boss commended you on a job well one. The kids have been unusually obedient this week. All the bills got paid before the money ran out. Life is good, praise God! But what about when times get tough? Will you praise ...read more

    Jesus tells us to strive to enter the narrow gate, while many will seek to enter when it is too late. The difference between seeking and striving for the kingdom of God.

    Please turn in your Bibles to Luke 13 and follow along as I read verses 22-24: “And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem. Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for ...read more

    Contributed by Efe Oluwatosin on Jun 26, 2024
     | 592 views

    There is always hope as long as we are alive. The gates to both life and hell are open continuously, allowing for the possibility to transition from one to the other at any given time.

    Matthew 7:13-14 “You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow, and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.” Regardless of how far one may have ...read more

    Jesus urges his listeners to the Sermon on the Mount to make The Choice for Life in entering the Kingdom of God, in terms of Two Gates, Two Ways, Two Destinations and Two Crowds.

    Jesus was a wonderful teacher. He had the knack of making His teaching on the Kingdom of God interesting and easily understood by the use of graphic pictures. There’s a good example of this in two verses in our reading from Matthew’s account of the Sermon on the Mount: "Enter through the narrow ...read more
