     | 5,960 views

    To be examined is the suddenness and unexpected nature of Jesus' return. All Bible references are from the NASB.

    Yes, Jesus is coming again and we see the signs all around us. That is a central fact that all serious Bible Scholars agree.

    We follow Jesus daily in the shadow of our hope: that Jesus Christ is coming again. Banowsky: “From Genesis to Revelation scripture shouts that he is coming again - personally, visibly, audibly, unexpectedly, and imminently.”

    In Luke’s gospel (12:35) we find the first extended teaching on the Second Coming of Jesus and here he warns his followers to be ready. In these verses we are given three distinct characteristics of a “good waiter.”

    A Study of the Book of Luke Sermon # 34 Are You Ready? Luke 12:35-44 We have all seen and laughed at the Ameritrades commercial that shows the lazy husband reclining on the coach as his wife tells him to do one thing that day – ...read more

    When the industrial revolution came to America there was little or no love between the company and the employees, hence the growth of unions. Would Labor Day even be in existence if those involved had obeyed the Lord's command to love one another?

    Labor Day 2019 Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … John 14:23-24 “Jesus said, ‘If anyone loves Me, he will obey My teaching. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make our home with him. “He who does not love Me will not obey My teaching. These words ...read more

    To establish that Jesus’ exception includes two components, “the water and the Spirit.” The new birth or being “born anew” includes both in the regeneration process. This exception has no exceptions. Believers in God must learn to respect and “accept the exceptions” of God in being “born anew.”

    God specializes in restoring those who are lost and gone away from Him. Everyone needs to be in the place God has assigned for us, for only there are we assured of God’s protection, privilege and we will also find our true worth.

    We read in Luke 15:20, “And he rose up and went to his own father. But while he was yet a long way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell upon his neck, and covered him with kisses.” (Darby) We meditated a little on this passage in the last sermon, considering ...read more
