    In Terms Of Eternity

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 11, 2023
     | 1,465 views

    The Bible teaches that after death (Hebrews 9:27), we will face judgment and enter eternity, either heaven or hell. Consider what that means and how it should motivate us to spread the Gospel in these last days.

    The Bible teaches that from the moment we are conceived, we are destined to live forever (Psalm 61:7; Daniel 12:2; Matthew 25:46: Romans 2:7). The LORD God Almighty saw fit to create us, give us meaning, a purpose, and conscience to use for His glory and our benefit (Psalm 73:25-28; Romans ...read more

    Complacency And The Path To Perdition

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 24, 2025
     | 143 views

    This may make you squirm a bit. But remember that the prophets had two missions: to comfort the afflicted and to afflict the comfortable.

    Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Course 2025 In today’s opening prayer, the Church celebrates God’s almighty power shown by Him pardoning sins and showing mercy, and we ask for abundant grace, God’s very life, so that we can hasten to attain His promises and be His eternal heirs. That sounds wonderful, but ...read more

    Meeting Jesus in the Lazarus' of this world.

    Luke 16:19-31 “We All Know Lazarus” We have all seen him. He lies on a pile of newspapers outside a shop doorway, covered with a rough blanket. Perhaps he has a dog with him for safety.

    Lessons From Hell

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Sep 25, 2025
     | 307 views

    The "Rich Man" has gone to Hell. While there, he is in conversation with Abraham about being in torment. This conversation teaches us three important lessons about being ready for eternity.

    HISTORICALLY SPEAKING, WE HAVE A TENDENCY TO TAKE SIDES! WE CAN SOMETIMES FIND HUMOR IN SUCH ENDEAVORS LIKE DEBATING WHETHER IT IS PRONOUNCED “POTATOE” OR “PATATTA,” “CARRIBIAN” OR “CARRA-BEAN” OR EVEN “NEVADA” OR “NUH-VADA.” WE ALWAYS DESIRE TO BE RIGHT. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE CHOOSE THE RIGHT ...read more

    Father Abraham Had Many Sons

     | 321 views

    Jesus used a familiar Jewish story to show who the true children of Abraham are. The only bridge across the chasm of sin is the cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    (Father Abraham and Lazarus) If you could overhear a live conversation between heaven and hell, would you lean in? Many people read Jesus’ story of the rich man and Lazarus as though He lowered a microphone into the afterlife to let us hear a dialogue across eternity. For centuries preachers ...read more

    Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year C: Lazarus And The Rich Man

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Sep 26, 2025
     | 464 views

    Dives ended up in a Dive Bar in Hell's Kitchen for all eternity, and I don’t mean a below sidewalk-level seedy bar in Manhattan, NY.

    The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus is the only parable that contains a proper name, "Lazarus;" the rich man has no name, but he is traditionally known as "Dives," the Latin word meaning "rich." Dives ended up in a Dive Bar in Hell's Kitchen for all ...read more

    A Very Frightening Reading About Hell, How Then To We Avoid It.

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Sep 28, 2025
     | 139 views

    No matter where we are in our spiritual journey, this parable will quickly return us to earth with a bang. Let us remind ourself of our duty to God and our fellow man.

    Introduction: “This is a frightening reading” What a horrible, and frightening reading that was. For me, this is one of the worst passages in the whole bible, partly because we do not understand it in full, and partly because we do. … No matter where we are in our spiritual journey with the Lord, ...read more

    Sin importar en qué punto nos encontremos en nuestro camino espiritual, esta parábola nos traerá de vuelta a la tierra con un estallido. Recordemos nuestro deber para con Dios y el prójimo.

    Introducción: “Esta es una lectura aterradora” ¡Qué lectura tan horrible y aterradora! Para mí, este es uno de los peores pasajes de toda la Biblia, en parte porque no lo entendemos completamente y en parte porque sí lo entendemos. … No importa en qué punto nos ...read more

    If you want to be certain of heaven and avoid hell, stop depending on yourself and depend on Jesus.

    A drunk man got on the bus late one night, staggered up the aisle, and sat next to a woman who was clutching a Bible. She looked the wayward drunk up and down and said, “I've got news for you, mister. You're going straight to hell!” The man jumped up out of his seat and shouted, “Oh, man, ...read more

    The Rich Man And Lazarus Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Mar 28, 2025
     | 767 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
     | 646 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

     | 676 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.
