    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

    There are many excuses for rejecting what God has to offer, and God sees through them all. If we’re full of the world we’ll have no appetite for Heaven.

    Today’s parable starts out as table-talk. At a dinner, Jesus mentions “the resurrection of the righteous”, an encouraging truth. Someone at the table gets so excited, he declares a Beatitude: “Blessed is everyone who will eat at the banquet in the Kingdom of God!” ...read more

    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 Lord has invited you to sit and commune with him at His banquet table right now. What does this mean? How will you respond? Teaching by Glenn Bleakney.

    We have been invited to a Great Feast. At this feast there is a table spread before us. This Feast is not to be viewed as an occasion reserved strictly for the future when we dwell with the Lord forever. Revelation 19:7 Let us be glad and rejoice and honor him.

    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 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
