    Jesus relates His call of Salvation to one who gave a feast. Some declined-others were brought in to dine. Who were the ones who declined-who were the ones who came?

    The Easiest Way To Miss Out On Heaven

    This message addresses common reasons unbelievers give of why they will not trust Christ. It also explores the difference between a "good reason" and an "excuse," and we find that most of these "good reasons" non-believers give are just "excuses."

    I am well aware that one of the problems people have with speakers like me is that they often wonder if they are actually real human beings. I once read of a little girl who was taken to church for the first time ever. The child was struck by the solemness of the occasion. And after several moments ...read more

    The Great Banquet

    God takes the initiative to invite us to connect with Him. Many are too preoccupied with things, too busy making a living, and too caught up by other loves, to be able to make a wise choice.

    Someone said (in verse 15), "Blessed is the man who will eat at the feast in the Kingdom of God." To be eating at the feast in God’s Kingdom is a blessing. - God wants us to fellowship with Him. He wants us to come back into His Kingdom. - God is inviting us today, and Jesus wants the people to ...read more

    Jesus wants to spend time with us. Do we accept the invitation or make excuses?

    Jesus wants to spend time with us . . . do we accept his invitation or make excuses? Luke 14:15-24 Jesus has summed up the human heart – these are the main things that keep a person from experiencing a personal relationship with God. An excuse is a hint of a reason wrapped in a lie. 1) First ...read more

    Get Off Your "Buts” (Sermon Theme Adapted From Dean Kennedy)

    Get Off Your “Buts” 1) The Lord’s banquet is ready, so hurry! 2) The Lord’s banquet hall is huge, so herald!

    An article in the Edmonton Journal last week reported that children are spending an average of six hours a day in front of some type of a screen. Add that up and it’s about as much time as their parents are spending each week at work! Such an inactive lifestyle so early on will lead to future ...read more

    Christ has given you a daily invitation to fellowship with Him but many of us reject His invitation giving various excuses. Today we will spend some time reviewing the excuses they gave and see they are the same excuses we give.

    INTRODUCTION In our passage today we find Jesus teaching a parable. A parable is an earthly story that teaches a Heavenly truth. Earthly Story - A king had decided to throw a banquette and invited all of His closest friends. In those days the invitation would go out and would be accepted or ...read more

    The invitation is still open but still being ignored by many who think they’re going anyway.

    Are you going to the party? Luke 14:15-24 I heard about a rabbit and a snake meeting in the forest. The rabbit said, "We don’t know how we look. Why don’t we describe each other to the other so we’ll know how we look?" The snake said, "Good idea. You’ve got a pink nose, ...read more

    Come, for everything is ready now. And there is no legitimate excuse to refuse.

    Dwight L. Moody once preached a sermon from this parable; something I’m going to tell you about at the end of this sermon. His title was “Excuses” and as a sort of salute to the great preacher I’ve given mine the same title. I’ve never seen his sermon so any resemblance in this sermon to his is ...read more

    This is a sermon about excuse giving in Luke 14.

    EXCUSES Luke 14:16-24 It is amazing what excuses people make and give for not coming to Christ or for not doing what the Lord is asking them to do. Some are too busy, some too clever, some too religious to repent, some too worldly to want to; some too proud to pray. The Lord Jesus once focused on ...read more

    This study considers the command to go into the highways and hedges and compel people to God.

    Have you ever heard or used the phrase “beat the bushes?” Beat the bushes refers to searching diligently for someone or something. The word etymology is based on the hunting practice of having someone hit bushes with a stick in order to force birds to fly up into the air to be shot. We have ...read more

    There are many excuses we can offer for not accepting the invitation to come to the banquet which God has prepared, but none of our excuses are valid because Jesus deals with them all.

    Friends in the Lord, One thing you can guarantee when you have Jesus over to your place for dinner is that the table conversation will always be very interesting. Which is exactly what is happening in our text. But the teachings of Jesus aren’t recorded just because they are “interesting”. The ...read more

    It’s time to quit the excuses before we miss the party. This sermon was presented at an on-going Breakfast Ministry for the Homeless

    This morning I’m going to give you guys an opportunity to change seats. This will be your only chance though. I want to make sure that you are comfortable where you are. Now for the reason why. I was led to pray over certain chairs here this morning before you came in. I feel God is really ...read more

    How often do we miss God’s blessing upon our lives because of our excuses. We excuse ourselves right out of the kingdom of God.

    Iliff and Saltillo United Methodist January 16, 2005 “Excusing Ourselves Out of the Kingdom” Luke 14:15-24 INTRODUCTION: Jesus was talking with some Pharisees and one of them commented, “Blessed is the man who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God,” referring to the marriage supper of ...read more
