  • Why Do We Ask Less From God Than He’s Willing To Give?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 12, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,322 views

    This message looks at the healing of the paralytic and asks why we settle for less than God's best when we ask from God. It then looks at four examples of how we do similar things today.

    - We want to begin with something that stands out early in the story: the fact that they obviously come for physical healing, but Jesus responds to the man by saying that his sins are forgiven. - Why would Jesus do that? Was He unaware of what they’d come for? (Obviously not.) Was He ...read more

     | 7,379 views

    A look at what it means to "count the cost" and why that's so essential. This message calls down the cheap gospel presentations that we so often make that have no mention in them of what it actually means to follow Jesus.

    CHEAP FAITH: Too often we offer salvation that’s straight from the discount bin. - Luke 14:28-32. - Our approach to evangelism is too often to present salvation as a low-cost, no-commitment offer. All you need to do is say you believe in Jesus! That’s it! There’s no mention of the need for ...read more

    An examination of what it means to "deny yourself and take up your cross."

    JESUS' OPINION: Jesus says the path to life is not in “finding yourself” but in “denying yourself.” - Matthew 16:24; Mark 8:34. - I’m thinking of the stereotypical statement that is so common that it’s almost a cliché: “I’ve got to go find ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,333 views

    A look at the conditional obedience we often offer God, in comparison with Joseph's complete and costly obedience.

    ASKING TOO MUCH? Often our willingness to obey God comes with a pre-set spending limit. Main illustration: An American Express card vs. a Walmart pre-loaded card. This is a Walmart pre-loaded card with $50 on it. If I give it to you, you can buy whatever you want. . . up to $50. This is an ...read more

     | 4,049 views

    This message focuses on the abundance that Christ wants to do through His servants and the "good enough" mentality of many people claiming faith. It focuses on the verse speaking of "everyone who has will be given more."
