     | 8,863 views

    Jesus gives us a life lesson here that is for both this life and the next. There are needy people at our doorsteps who need our compassion, love and resources in order to survive. Our wealth should not remove us from them.

    The Rich man and Lazarus Luke 16:19-31 As we have walked with Jesus through the Parables this year we have been taught how God values each one of us, men and women, boys and girls, young and old and rich and poor.

    How does our citizenship in heaven shape the way we think and interact with the world around us? How does it inform our understanding of social justice? How does "eagerly" waiting for the Coming of Christ affect the way we live life?

    Intro We are in a profound transition both in the church and in the nation. The presidential election is only weeks away.

    Sermon # 13 - The Way Of The Cross Part 2 - Standing Around The Cross Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 10, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 276 views

    Around the cross of Jesus were many people and it is interesting to note how each of them responded to the Savior’s cruel death. We must examine ourselves too to make sure that we truly understand and value what the Loving Lord Jesus did for us on our behalf on the cross of Calvary.

    We read in John 19:17-18, He went out, carrying his cross, and came to "The Place of the Skull," as it is called. (In Hebrew it is called "Golgotha.") There they crucified him; and they also crucified two other men, one on each side, with Jesus between them. (GNB) That day when ...read more
