    Contributed by Richard Tow on Oct 4, 2021
     | 4,773 views

    In Zech. 1:3 God extends an invitation to his people for something better! Entry to that is through the door of repentance. This message focuses on the STRUCTURE of the book with an outline and the INVITATION to a discouraged people.

    Last week we began a study of the book of Zechariah. (1) We discovered the THEME of the book in Zechariah’s name. Zechariah means “Yahweh [covenant name of God] Remembers.” God remembers his covenant with his people, even when they forget it. He remembers his promises to them, even when they have ...read more

    A sermon for all of us.

    “The Parable of the Loving Father” Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 So, Jesus was hanging out with the only crowd that ever seemed to want to hang out with Him. Tax Collectors, Sinners—which referred to anyone from a person with a skin disease, to a person with crushed organs to prostitutes, and so ...read more

  • A Crown Jewel Series

    When searching for a lost coin (lost person) the Lord gets to work! He lights a lamp and sweeps the house, like using a fine-tooth comb. The lost coin is like a jewel in a wedding headdress. We are to Jesus as a crown jewel!

    I wish to begin our message by first reading through tonight’s parable, and then we’ll take a closer look after I share a brief introduction. Let’s all stand at this time in honor of the reading of God’s Word: 8 What woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, ...read more

  • He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Parable Of The Lost Sheep And The Lost Coin) # 10

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 2,517 views

    This parable is special, because it tells us a great deal about God the Father’s great love for mankind.

    Now we mortals love certain people, but if there are things in their life that we do not like, we generally brush them aside. We all can be thankful indeed that God the Father loves everyone, He even loves the most ungodly sinner on the face of the earth. He does not love their evil deeds, but He ...read more

  • The Parables Of Jesus: The Lost Sheep & The Lost Coin Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 15, 2022
     | 2,824 views

    Time and again in the New Testament we see Jesus sharing parables and stories related to shepherds and sheep. It’s very very common. From psalm 23, talking about the rod and staff of the shepherd, to Jesus calling himself “the gate for the sheep” it’s throughout the scriptures.

    “Dr. Andrew Bonar told me how, in the Highlands of Scotland, a sheep would often wander off into the rocks and get into places that they couldn't get out of. The grass on these mountains is very sweet and the sheep like it, and they will jump down ten or twelve feet, and then they can't ...read more

  • Inviting Who We Know

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 18, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,629 views

    Perhaps some of us are feeling inadequate to do something for the kingdom. We can start by getting people to attend church. All it takes is to think of someone we know, and then to invite that individual to join us. It's that simple!

    This morning I wish to address a question that many believers have, and that is “How do we get people to come to church?” First of all, it is important for us to realize something I once saw stated on a church sign. Where the pastor’s name is normally listed, someone had posted this: “Minister: ...read more

  • A Lost Sheep And A Lost Coin.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 5, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,644 views

    Man in sin is lost, whether he is aware of it or not. Jesus came to seek that which was lost. The testimony of Christians is, I once was lost, but now am found.

    A LOST SHEEP AND A LOST COIN. Luke 15:1-10. In the first parable of today’s reading we see the caring shepherd. He left his ninety-nine other sheep in order to seek the one that was lost, until he had found it. This is an image which is familiar from both the Old Testament and the New Testament: ...read more

  • The Portrait Of A Godly Father

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jun 18, 2022
     | 3,600 views

    When we consider Jesus’ audience, there is a much deeper truth. Jesus shows the sinners, publicans, scribes and the pharisees what God is really like and he paints a picture of a Godly Father.

    Sermon: The Portrait of a Godly Father Text: Luke 15: 1-24 1 Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach. 2 This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such sinful people—even eating with them! 3 So Jesus told them ...read more

     | 3,735 views

    Jesus' two parables in Luke 15:1-10 are about the character of God.

    “Getting too Friendly with Sinners” Luke 15:1-10 Imagine living in Jesus’ world and imagine being labeled a “sinner” in that world. Now, I think we stumble over that term in this context because according to Christian doctrine we are all sinners, right? But this wasn’t necessarily the way ...read more

     | 2,773 views

    Using the parables of the lost sheep and lost coin, we can understand the great value God has placed upon our lives and how passionately He works to save us from sin.

  • Our Lord Never Gives Up

    Imagine one being divine for a couple of weeks. Not like Jesus Christ, who as Second Person of the Trinity emptied Himself of everything to become man, all the way to a cross.

    Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Course 2022 One of the critical prophetic statements in the OT is in the book of Hosea (11:9). Hosea hears God tell him about the divine intention toward the kingdom of Israel: “I will not. . .destroy Ephraim. For I am God and not man–the Holy One among you–and I will not ...read more
