    I am always amused by the different excuses people come up with to explain their actions or different situations.

    NO EXCUSE SUNDAY. I am always amused by the different excuses people come up with to explain their actions or different situations. Have you ever noticed how we can come up with some really funny excuses? People must put a lot of effort and thought into their excuses. Here is just a sampling ...read more

    The Easiest Way To Miss Out On Heaven

    Contributed by Larry Moyer on Aug 5, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,419 views

    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 Feast/The Excuses Series

    based on 7 ratings
     | 8,645 views

    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

    Jesus' Invitation Free But Costly Series

     | 5,087 views

    God’s invitation to the Great Feast (God’s kingdom) is free but it is costly as it demands that we put Jesus above all else.

    We continue this second week of our 40 day journey through Lent as we walk with Jesus to the cross. Last week I reminded us of the scripture passage from Luke 9:51 which said “When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.” Jesus, knowing full well what would ...read more

    It’s Go Time! Luke 14:16-23 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/GoTime.html I thought about titling this message “It’s Time to Go” but I was afraid you’d get up and leave.

    The Great Banquet

     | 4,176 views

    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

    For this week’s Bible Study, we have discussed about The Parable of the Great Banquet.

    God definitely has a way of speaking with us, even if we forget Him at times, especially when we are distracted with irrelevant things. In the depths of our emotions, He knows how to converse with us and tell us how much He loves us. In times of troubles, God invites us to be with Him. He never ...read more

    But the message of this parable applies to the lost sinners of today. • And that message is that God still says, “All things are now ready. Come!” • Nothing else needs to be done it’s all been taken care of • I took care of all the preparation for the party
