    Jesus ate with all kinds of sinners, including the Pharisees. One such occasion is recorded in Luke 14:1-14. In this lesson we'll examine the disastrous dinner with a focus of learning who will sit around the Lord's table.

    The meal table is the main social center of the home. Think of some of your warmest memories and many of them will be associated with meal-time. In our text, the entire passage is centered around and on a meal table. The great question discussed was who will sit around God’s table in the ...read more

  • The Banquet

     | 4,310 views

    Messiah uses a banquet to make serious point about how we should think of ourselves. Does self esteem have a place in a Christian's life?

    September 1, 2013 The Banquet A drunken man who smelled like beer, sat down on a subway seat next to a priest. The man’s tie was stained, his face was smeared with red lipstick, and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat pocket. He opened his newspaper and began to ...read more

    The analysis of Jesus healing a man with a withered hand on a Sabbath will show us that works of mercy are appropriate on the Lord's Day.

    Scripture Jesus was frequently criticized during his ministry. The religious leaders of Jesus’ day criticized him because he did not conform to their understanding of God’s law. Things got so bad that they eventually looked for ways to catch Jesus doing something contrary to their ...read more

    “Do not put yourself forward in the king's presence or stand in the place of the great, for it is better to be told, “Come up here,” than to be put lower in the presence of a noble” Pr. 25:6-7.

    Theme: Let the Lord exalt you Text: Pr. 25:6-7; Heb. 13:1-8; Lk. 14:1-14 The first sin in the history of the universe was the result of pride.

     | 4,698 views

    Humility is not what you think, humility is power, strength, energy and life; but to receive it, you must submit yourself to God; you must acknowledge that he is king, and you are subjected to him.

    Prayer: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts be acceptable to you O Lord. Amen. Introduction: There is a country and western song which I love called “Lord, it is hard to be humble, when you are perfect in ever way”. I think the words are so funny because for me, ...read more

    We live in a society obsessed with being number one, while following Jesus who calls us to humble, faithful service. To meet the challenge of Jesus’ call, we must start at the foot of the cross.
