    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.

    "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

    Our world today will try to convince people that ultimately everyone goes to heaven. God makes it very clear that is not the truth.

    I mentioned last Sunday that the world tries to convince people that there is more than one way to get to heaven. God showed us in Scripture that His Son Jesus told us very plainly that He is the way, the truth, and the life, and that no one gets to the father unless they go through Jesus. But ...read more

    It is not so much a matter of how few will be saved, as how long the gate will be open.

    THE NARROW GATE. Luke 13:22-30. LUKE 13:22. Jesus was on a journey to Jerusalem. It was a journey with a particular purpose.
