    "Someone" (vs 23) asks a general question but God desires personal questons... Thoughts on our walk toward the Narrow Door. Can be a very fun sermon. A call for people to have a deeper walk with God. Concluding sugestions at the end of sermon.

    In some of our previous messages I shared from: 1) Luke 13:31-35 where Jesus weeps for Jerusalem. The Pharisees have a pretense of caring for Jesus by warning Him of Herod's plans to kill Him, all while they themselves desire to do just that. We also talked about the animal imagery used in the ...read more

    In Jerusalem this week, President Bush and Prime Minister Olmert met as well as other mid-east officials to work on yet another middle-east peace process.

    God’s kingdom is at work in this world, but many people fail to take advantage of their opportunities. Instead of entering the kingdom, some people only ask questions about it. Salvation is not a theory to discuss; it is a miracle to experience.

    Perea Lesson: Begins Teaching Return to Jerusalem with Special Words About Herod (Psalm 6:8) Luke 13:22-35 God’s kingdom is at work in this world, but many people fail to take advantage of their opportunities.

    Jesus warns us to assess the genuineness of our faith and be prepared for His return. Do we look like the Church, but are devoid of the Holy Spirit? Instead of lives transformed by the power of Christ, are our lives more like performance art? Jesus is coming at any moment! Are you prepared?

    INTRODUCTION Do you agree that in God’s master plan, there is no such thing as “coincidence”? A few weeks ago, your pastor asked if I would be willing to preach today. Not only did I tell him “Yes!” on the spot, but I also told him that I knew exactly what I wanted to preach. You see, God had ...read more

    The Bible gives details about your personal future – what happens both when you die as well as where you are after your death while the world awaits its end. In fact, the Bible teaches that everyone everywhere will spend eternity in one of two places: heaven or hell.

    This is the third sermon in a series of messages on Jesus’ vision of the last days. We are highlighting the Importance of Jesus’ Return during this series. There are 260 chapters in the New Testament, and Christ’s return is mentioned no less than 318 times. Statistically, one verse in twenty-five ...read more

    God invites every person to abandon blame, own today’s choices, and trust His grace to build a brand-new future.

    The Broken Fence One spring morning a man discovered that the white picket fence behind his house had fallen over in the night. His first instinct was to blame last winter’s storms, the neighbor’s leaning tree, even the builder who had put the fence up years earlier. But as he inspected it more ...read more

    What Does It Mean To "make Every Effort" To Enter The Kingdom? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 10, 2025
     | 178 views

    This passage has two troubling phrases: "make every effort" and "try . . . and not be able." What are we to do with those? And do they mean that God is setting up difficult barriers to get into the Kingdom?

    WHAT DOES "MAKE EVERY EFFORT" MEAN? It doesn’t mean that it’s nearly impossible but that you should focus your attention. - Luke 13:22-24a. - Jesus is asked an important question: “[A]re only a few people going to be saved?” (v. 23). - That's a great question. What is the nature of ...read more
