    Jesus wasn’t in the dark about why He was invited to this dinner. But I have to admit that if a Pharisee had asked me to come to dinner for the purpose of spying on me, I would have refused.

    Humility is disdained by this world but the Kingdom of God and the citizens of Heaven are those who are contrite and humble. Sometimes we need to examine ourselves to see if we are prideful or humble. Hopefully this sermon helps us with that examination.

    Luke 14:1-11 (read from the Bible and have the congregation follow along) Luke 14:11 NIV “All those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Humility … humility in relationship to God comes from knowing that God is God and we are ...read more

    Sometimes we need an analysis of how we view ourselves in order to determine if we are actually humble or not. This sermon contains an mini-quiz to that effect and also the testimony of John Piper in an article from 2010 where he was struggling with pride

    Luke 14:1-11 (read from the Bible and have congregation follow along) Luke 14:11 NIV “All those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Humility … humility in relationship to God comes from knowing that God is God and we are not ...read more

    The Banquet

    Contributed by Joe Tilton on Aug 28, 2013
     | 4,381 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

     | 16,903 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

    “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.

    Humility And The Wedding Banquet.

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Sep 1, 2013
     | 4,795 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

    Explore the Lordship of Christ over the Sabbath, the scrutiny of religious leaders, and the importance of obeying God's laws over human standards.

    Good morning, dear family of faith. We're going to dive right into the Word today from the Gospel of Luke, Chapter 14, verses 1-6. I love how Charles Spurgeon put it: "The Gospel is like a caged lion. It does not need to be defended, it just needs to be let out of its cage." So, let's unleash the ...read more

    Is it important to keep the Sabbath day holy? Why did God give us this command, and how is it applicable for us today? God’s word has answers for all of these questions, and those who follow will be duly blessed.

    God’s commandment on observing the Sabbath We read in Exodus 20:8–10,"Observe the Sabbath and keep it holy.

    The Deceptive Power Of A Good Excuse

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 29, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,765 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

    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
