    Evangelizing The Cities Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 28, 2015
     | 3,645 views

    Just as post-Resurrection Judaism created a culture that rejected the Gospel, so modern society tries to make people incapable of receiving Christ. But we must bear witness, especially in the cities.

    Thursday of the Second Week in Lent Joy of the Gospel Last Sunday we heard Jesus tell his key disciples not to disclose their vision of Him transfigured until He would rise from the dead. There was a good reason for that. The Jewish mindset, which had been formed by prophets like Jeremiah, ...read more

     | 3,070 views

    Where you spend the other side of Eternity will be based on whether you’ve accepted Christ on this side of Eternity.

    Intro. A Few weeks ago, I preached on facing the Border, and how Enoch was translated, raptured, to live with God forever. We are facing the border.

    it is impossible to change in eternity, no preacher, no prayer over your life, no good words spoken will get someone out of hell, there is a great gulf fixed

    Intro: if you have a Pastor or Preacher who has convinced you there is no hell or eternal punishment, I have one thing to say, He is a liar, a false prophet, and the truth is not in him.

    Rather than comparing ourselves to the rich man or Lazarus, congregation members are invited to see themselves through the five brothers of the rich man. Jesus’ parable reminds us we have all we need, God’s Word.
