     | 6,958 views

    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

    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.

  • Humility And The Wedding Banquet.

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Sep 1, 2013
     | 4,696 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

  • Parable Of The Arrogant/Humble Servant

    Contributed by James Snyder on Sep 2, 2013
     | 8,236 views

    If we exalt ourselves, we hinder God’s work and His ability of using us for His work and glory.

We had many missionaries come to our church at that time which created a lot of confusion for me. I wanted to serve God but I did not have any confidence as to where God wanted me to serve. I ...read more

     | 5,980 views

    Our value as a person has nothing to do with having our name on the up in lights. God loves us; we can’t improve on that! You don’t have to try and prove you are worthwhile by sneaking your nametag a little higher up on the table. And praise God for that!

    Luke 14:1-14 “The Religion Police” By: Ken Sauer, Pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN Luke opens chapter 14 by telling us that Jesus “went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee,” on the Sabbath and that “he was being carefully ...read more

    People are Important to God

    Two Prejudices – Luke 14.1-14 Prejudice of any kind is hard to deal with, let alone live with so, seen from that perspective, the story of the Great Banquet might prove something of a challenge for some. To be sure, there’s nothing in it to indicate racial prejudice but it’s ...read more

  • Do I Really Want To Become More Like Jesus?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 1, 2010
     | 4,418 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
