    All Prepared

    Jesus warns us to assess the genuineness of our faith and be prepared for His return. Do we look like the Church, but are devoid of the Holy Spirit? Instead of lives transformed by the power of Christ, are our lives more like performance art? Jesus is coming at any moment! Are you prepared?

    INTRODUCTION Do you agree that in God’s master plan, there is no such thing as “coincidence”? A few weeks ago, your pastor asked if I would be willing to preach today. Not only did I tell him “Yes!” on the spot, but I also told him that I knew exactly what I wanted to preach. You see, God had ...read more

    You'll Be Surprised Who's In Heaven Series

    The Bible gives details about your personal future – what happens both when you die as well as where you are after your death while the world awaits its end. In fact, the Bible teaches that everyone everywhere will spend eternity in one of two places: heaven or hell.

    This is the third sermon in a series of messages on Jesus’ vision of the last days. We are highlighting the Importance of Jesus’ Return during this series. There are 260 chapters in the New Testament, and Christ’s return is mentioned no less than 318 times. Statistically, one verse in twenty-five ...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. We are told back in Luke 9:51 that ‘when the time was come that He should be received up, He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem.’ Jesus was steadfast in His ...read more

    Doesn't Everyone Go To Heaven?

    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

    21st Sunday in Ordinary Time, Cycle C

    The Screwtape Letters is a classic book, where C.S. Lewis came up with the idea of a senior demon named Screwtape telling his trade secrets about how to corrupt a human soul- Regarding the narrow gate mentioned in our Gospel today, Screwtape would say: 1). A broad, constructed road, requires a ...read more

    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.

    Perea Lesson: Begins Teaching Return to Jerusalem with Special Words About Herod (Psalm 6:8) Luke 13:22-35 God’s kingdom is at work in this world, but many people fail to take advantage of their opportunities.

    The Moment To Decide

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 2, 2024
     | 293 views

    Every generation has a defining moral question, often between life and death, but always between good and evil. In the nineteenth century, it was for the right to choose ownership of other humans, or against the exploitation of slaves.

    Wednesday of the Thirtieth Week in Course 2024 Today’s Gospel hits the lukewarm Christian right in the gut, if it first has an encounter with his head. Christ’s disciples have asked Him if there will be only a few humans saved. Jesus jumps right to the main point, telling them something more ...read more

     | 299 views

    Jesus' Sermon on the Mount concludes with warnings about hasty judgments and the assumption that the work you do for the LORD is not necessarily a sign that you are one of His followers.

    Matthew 7:1-5: The Process of Sound Judgment Judges render decisions in courts of law based upon evidence presented by advocates for both accused and accuser. He examines both sides of the arguments and their merit. He consults with both parties if need be as well as do research on similar ...read more

    Jesus warns that just because we have done "works" for Him doesn't mean that we know Him personally. Be certain of your own salvation and have built your home upon the Rock.

    Dr. Frank Turek, noted Christian apologist and evangelist, has referred to Matthew 7:21-23 as the most terrifying words in all of the Bible. It is a warning against assumption, intentions, works, and false belief, all being evidence that Jesus Himself will use on the Day of Judgment as a warning ...read more

    We must all accept discipline so that we will receive the “peaceful fruit of righteousness” owed to those who are trained by discipline.

    Twenty-first Sunday in Course 2025 As a teacher, I used to tell my students there’s a good way to find out what the teacher finds important in a lesson. Here’s the rule: write down anything the teacher says more than once. That’s what is likely to be on the test. Today St. Luke shares a question ...read more

    In this Gospel Lesson we hear our Savior speak words of warning and encouragement. Jesus said that there is only one way to enter heaven. He said that we should make every effort to: “ENTER THROUGH THE NARROW DOOR”

    “How do you get into heaven?” A Sunday school teacher asked that question of her 2nd grade class. It seemed like a simple question for a group of little Lutherans. But no hands went up. Silence. Crickets. The teacher was confident that the students knew the answer, so she waited patiently. ...read more
