    There are times in our spiritual lives when we want all the blessings of heaven, but with the least amount of sacrifice possible. There are times when we live our Christian lives in such a way that we seem to be saying, “What is the least amount that I ha

    Opening illustration: Surprised to see an empty seat at the Super Bowl stadium, a diehard fan remarked about it to a woman sitting nearby. “It was my husband’s,” the woman explained, “But he died.” “I’m very sorry,” said the man. “You know, I’m really surprised that a relative or friend didn’t ...read more

    Too often we try to make Jesus fit our own desires. Instead of the real Jesus we want one that fits into our life neatly. That's a plastic Jesus.

    “PLASTIC JESUS” Genesis 22:1-14 • Luke 14:25-33 First Presbyterian Church, Corpus Christi, TX Rev. Charles S. Blackshear • April 22, 2012 Several years ago in Kentucky a man walked into a Dairy Queen, placed his order and then paid for it with a $200 bill. The cashier ...read more

    The analysis of following Jesus in Luke 14:25-35 shows us what is involved in following Jesus.

    Scripture On his journey to Jerusalem from Galilee, Jesus often engaged in controversy with the Jewish leadership, most often the Pharisees (cf. Luke 11:37-54; 13:31-14:24). But now in Luke 14:25, Jesus returns to address the crowds. In doing so, he clarified what is involved in following him. ...read more

    Jesus does not promise us material wealth if we follow him, but he promises us a wealth beyond anything we can dream of in terms of material goods. His wealth is the wealth of the Holy Spirit and the wealth of heaven. God and Christ are willing to share.

    Jesus paid the price for our lives. We must bear the Cost of Following Him.

    The Cost of Discipleship-The price is what you pay initially- The Cost is what comes later. You pay a price for a piano & music lessons. The cost is the hours of practice and work and rehearsal.

    Many profess to love the lord but with reservations. Their mantra is “I love you Lord but...” Excuses arise when they are called to follow Jesus Christ in sacrificial discipleship or to live separated holy lives.

    I relied heavily on SermonCentral contributor Larry Sarver's sermon "Defining Discipleship" for this lesson. I addressed the topic of Growing Deeper through Discipleship in two sermons.

    A. The story is told of a pig and a chicken who were walking down the road one day. 1. As they passed a church, they notice that a potluck charity breakfast was under way. 2. Caught up in the spirit, the pig suggested to the chicken that they each make a contribution. 3. “Great Idea!” ...read more

    We often preach on salvation given so freely, but do we take the time to look at the price we have to pay to be a disciple?

    The Price of Discipleship Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem, a journey that he knew would end with him being crucified, and yet many of those following him thought he was on his way to establish his Kingdom in the capital city. Sometimes I wonder if Jesus ever wanted to say: “What ...read more

    In this message we look at the real cost of discipleship. We have watered it down for today's culture. Jesus never did that.

    “The High Cost of Discipleship” Luke 14:25-35 Last week we left the disciples standing on the shore. They had just brought in such a large catch of fish that the nets were nearly breaking and when they placed all the fish in the boats they began to sink. Jesus said to them, come and ...read more

    PUTTING JESUS FIRST. Luke 14:25-33. I. Prioritising commitments. Jesus, it has to be admitted, is a great orator.
