    Laborers In The Vineyard

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 18, 2014
     | 6,556 views

    The parable of the vineyard in Matthew 20 is almost mind boggling in scope and what can be extracted from it. In this sermon we are taking a look at the relationship between the owner and the workers and becoming an employee and the "doing".

    Now we need to remember that we can never take a scripture out of context. Just before this the Rich Young Ruler asks Jesus in Matthew 19:16b (NASB) “Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may obtain eternal life?” “Do” This was an underlying foundation in the mind of ...read more

    Be Present Among The Lost Series

    Some believers insist on keeping a safe distance from the lost, afraid of being contaminated by their behavior or being seen as guilty by association; and so they fail to share their faith with the ones who actually need their help.

    It is my desire to preach on real issues that we deal with as believers, so here’s a real observation to start off with: Some believers act like once they have received God’s forgiveness and been saved from their sins by the blood of Jesus Christ that they’re somehow better than the lost. However, ...read more

    You know what "The Blame Game" is don’t you? Because we’ve all played it! Admittedly some of us play it a lot more than others, but it’s really all just a game of personal deflection. It involves blaming everything and everyone else (including God) for what is transpiring in your own life

    “THE BLAME GAME” Tonight we are going to take a brief interlude away from our ongoing study on... “...Those things which are most surely believed among us” (Luke 1:1) And instead, we’re going to talk about a little thing – I like to call “The Blame Game”.
