    Lazarus And The Rich Man PRO Sermon

     | 249 views

    True faith is shown by compassion for others; ignoring those in need hardens our hearts and distances us from God’s grace and eternal hope.

    Friends, welcome. Some stories slip past our defenses and sit down in the living room of our hearts. Jesus tells one of those stories today. It hums with hope and honesty. It whispers to our comfort and calls to our conscience. It lifts our chin so we can see the person at the gate and the God who ...read more

    The Rich Man And Lazarus Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Mar 28, 2025
     | 836 views

    In today’s text we have a story about a wealthy man and an impoverished man whose stories intersect at the gate of the wealthy man. This is a haunting story and one that features people with opposite experiences in life and death.

    The Rich Man and Lazarus Luke 16:19-31 Introduction Luke’s gospel is known for having a lot to say about riches and poverty. We might assume that Jesus mostly talked to poor people, but we know he spoke to the Pharisees, many of whom would have been wealthy. (16:14) He also was known to hang ...read more

    Eyes That See

    Contributed by Lewis Martin on Apr 7, 2025
     | 700 views

    Jesus tells a parable in Luke 16 that pulls back the curtain—revealing what happens when we live with closed eyes and closed hearts. It’s the story of a rich man, a poor beggar named Lazarus, and the eternal consequences of spiritual blindness.

    Sermon: "Eyes That See" (Luke 16:19-31) Scripture Reading (Luke 16:19-31 - NLT): 19 Jesus said, “There was a certain rich man who was splendidly clothed in purple and fine linen and who lived each day in luxury. 20 At his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus who was covered with sores. 21 As ...read more

     | 756 views

    The sinner’s cry at the end of life is one of regret, desperation, and hopelessness. But it is also a warning to those who are still alive. We have the opportunity to make the right choice now, to embrace Christ and live in light of eternity.

    HAD I KNOWN: THE SINNER'S REGRET By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 16:19-31 Supporting Texts: Matthew 7:13-14, Revelation 20:11-15 INTRODUCTION: The story of the rich man and Lazarus offers us a powerful glimpse into the final reality of human choices.

    When The Roll Is Called Down Yonder

     | 584 views

    One of the main beliefs that all Christians agree upon is that there is life after death.

    When the Roll is Called Down Yonder “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. 20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores 21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. ...read more

    Why The Gospel Is Greater Than Miracles

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 22, 2025
     | 340 views

    The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus is amazing for a number of reasons. One reason that we will look at today is that Jesus makes a clear statement that what will bring people to Christ is not great miracles, but simply God's Word shared with them.

    Why the Gospel is Greater than Miracles Good Morning. Our lesson this morning, Jesus’ Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, comes in response to the Pharisees having come once again to argue with Jesus. That’s a big point to the parable, the whole idea that we so much want to try to justify ...read more

    Sermon # 38 - The Attributes Of God The Father Series

    God is our loving Heavenly Father who sent His only begotten Son Jesus to be the atoning sacrifice for the sins of all mankind. When God is our Father we have forgiveness of sins, healing, redemption, His loving kindness and tender mercies and a life of total contentment.

    For today’s meditation let us dwell on Psalm 103:13, “As a father shows compassion to his children, so the LORD shows compassion to those who fear him.” (ESV) This Psalm that David wrote is based on the understanding that the relationship between the Almighty God and mankind is like that of a ...read more

     | 403 views

    Hell is just as real as heaven. The biblical images of heaven and hell are designed to convince us that we will want to go to heaven and won't want to go to hell. The good news is that no one has to go to hell because God has provided a way of escape and His name is Jesus.
