    Do I Really Want To Become More Like Jesus?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 1, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,758 views

    This is a tough question! Do I want to become more like Jesus, or do I want God to help me become more the person that I selfishly want to be?

    Was Jesus a nice, polite, mild-mannered, good-natured young man who kept himself to himself? Was Jesus middle-of-the-road, all things to all people, politically correct, and softly spoken? Was Jesus the most inoffensive man you could ever wish to meet? I wonder what kind of gentle, meek and mild ...read more

    A message about the necessity of humbling our hearts, as shown by Jesus in LUKE 14:1-14. It is an explanation of this passage.

    MATTHEW 23:11 “But the greatest among you shall be your servant.” When I was a teenager, I remember telling my father that I wanted to be a successful businessman when I grew up. He asked me what type of business I wanted to work in, and I told him I didn’t know, I just wanted to be a ...read more

    Priority Check - Priority Of Others Series

    Contributed by Wayne Mock on Feb 2, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,273 views

    While it is normal for many to have a primary concern for self, followers of Christ are to give priority to others above self.

    A teacher may say to a student who is not doing too well in school, “You need to give studying more priority in your life.” An employer may say to an employee who habitually arrives late to work, “You need to get your priorities straight.” A coach may say to a player who has become lazy and is not ...read more

    As imitators of Jesus Christ, we too are to know what to do for God, go, do what God says and tell people the truth in love!

    Last week from Luke 13 we noted that Jesus responded to persecution by actually just continuing the work He was called to do by God. Maybe this is where we got the saying “when the going gets tough, the tough gets going!” In our passage today, we will note the confidence of Jesus ...read more

    Healing Of A Man On The Sabbath Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,382 views

    Jesus' healing of a man on the Sabbath teaches us several truths about Jesus.

    Scripture During the last few months of Jesus’ life, opposition to him grew. Herod wanted to kill Jesus (Luke 13:13), and the scribes and Pharisees were “lying in wait for him, to catch him in something he might say” (Luke 11:54) or do. In their desire to get rid of Jesus, the ...read more

    The Banquet

    Contributed by Joe Tilton on Aug 28, 2013
     | 4,652 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

    A Man With A Withered Hand

    Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Aug 30, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,394 views

    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

    Let The Lord Exalt You

    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,453 views

    “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. Pride believes in doing things one’s own way and it was pride that made Satan declare “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will ...read more

    Humility And The Wedding Banquet.

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Sep 1, 2013
     | 5,269 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

    “And they could not answer Him again to these things.” (LUKE 14:6).

    HEALING AND TABLE ETIQUETTE. Luke 14:1-11. 1. A HEALING ON THE SABBATH. Luke 14:1-6. One Sabbath, one of the chief Pharisees gave Jesus the courtesy of a dinner invitation.

    The Deceptive Power Of A Good Excuse

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 29, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,252 views

    Excuses can rob us of God's best. They are an enemy of great faith and accomplishment. In this examination of Luke 14:15-24, we learn from Jesus's story about those who excused themselves from a great feast. Those people missed the opportunity of a lifetime.

    Intro We take as our text today Luke 14:15-24. Follow with me as we read that passage. “Now when one of those who sat at the table with Him heard these things, he said to Him, ‘Blessed is he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God! 16 Then He [Jesus] said to him, ‘A certain man gave a great ...read more

    El Poder Engañoso De Una Buena Excusa

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Aug 1, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,529 views

    Las excusas pueden privarnos de lo mejor de Dios. Son enemigas de la gran fe y de los logros. En este análisis de Lucas 14:15-24, aprendemos de la historia de Jesús sobre aquellos que se excusaron de asistir a un gran banquete. Esas personas perdieron la oportunidad de su vida.

    Introducción Hoy tomamos como texto Lucas 14:15-24. Acompáñenme a leer este pasaje. “Oyendo esto uno de los que estaban sentados con él a la mesa, le dijo: Bienaventurado el que coma pan en el reino de Dios. 16 Entonces Jesús le dijo: Un hombre hizo una gran cena, y ...read more

    Who Are The People Of God And How To Join Up

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 31, 2023
     | 819 views

    Here comes this hick-town Galilean carpenter and His gang to try to turn things upside down.

    Saturday of the 30th week in course 2023 Our first reading begins with a question about whether, “then,” God has rejected His people, the Jews of St. Paul’s day. But we must, to have any understanding of these words, look back at the previous chapter, which ends, “But of Israel he [God] says, ‘All ...read more

    Jesus answers an unspoken question with two questions of His own.

    A HEALING ON THE SABBATH. Luke 14:1-6. LUKE 14:1. One Sabbath, one of the chief Pharisees gave Jesus the courtesy of a dinner invitation. Jesus courteously accepted. Somewhat discourteously, the Pharisees were keeping their eye on Jesus. It is perhaps remarkable that Jesus accepted hospitality ...read more

    Making Present Christ's Law Of Love

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 29, 2024
     | 290 views

    In some way the prayer for or mention of the Philippians, in his mind, makes the folks in Philippi somehow present to him.

    Friday of the Thirtieth Week in Course Today’s Gospel can be entitled “the hierarchy of laws.” Jesus is the ultimate wise man—distinguished from the more common “wise guy” by asking a question that anybody in a non-mechanical society could feel reasonable. Not everyone owned an ox or ass; the poor ...read more
