    Lessons From The Rich Man And Lazarus (Luke, Part 8) Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Mar 13, 2022
     | 2,412 views

    Jesus often taught in parables and referred to them as such, but in this passage there is no mention of it being a parable ... this is the story of an actual event, and He makes it very clear that each of us has a choice on where we will spend eternity, because our life choices do matter.

    Lessons from the Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke, Part 8) Luke 16:19-31 Introduction / Recap - The study of Luke is an interesting one for believers to explore -- We see Luke’s interest in humanity (it’s genuine, rem: career as a physician) -- We also get to experience how Jesus interacts with ...read more

    This message looks at the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. All of us are going to be rewarded according to our deeds with either heaven or hell. Heaven and hell are real, and this passage shows a detailed description of each place.

    This morning’s sermon is entitled “Receiving Our Reward,” and it’s taken from what is commonly called “The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus.” All of us are going to be rewarded according to our deeds when this life is over.

    What The Bible Teaches About Hell

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 29, 2022
     | 1,376 views

    The last event in the life of SAINTS, as far as being connected to earth, is after the millennium they go to their eternal home in the glorious place the Bible calls heaven.

    But in this message we are going to study the last thing that will happen to SINNERS, as they will spend eternity in the horrendous place the Bible calls hell! In this day of liberalism, when a preacher preaches about hell he is immediately branded in a negative way as being one of those ...read more

    Keep A Balanced Perspective On Life

    Perspective is a certain point of view in understanding or judging things or circumstances. Our number battle is in the mind. The only way to combat the onslaught of Satan’s temptation is to view our human experience with a balanced perspective on life.

    Introduction: one of the most challenging things to do today is to keep a balanced perspective. So much of the information we receive is misinformation. The word balance has to do stability. To keep one’s body steady without falling; to keep one’s life steady without wavering; or the ability to ...read more

    What would a person in hades ask of us if we were able to hear them? Jesus provides us insight into this dark situation when He reveals what a lost man asked.

    “There was a rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. And at his gate was laid a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, who desired to be fed with what fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores.

    If we keep walking past “obvious unseen” people, and we keep doing “obvious unseen” actions, and we keep treating Scripture as an “obvious unseen” we will join the rich man.

    Jesus shares a story that gives us a brief glimpse of Hell. This message is not a full sermon, but more than just an outline.

    There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen. He ate a feast every day. A beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate. Lazarus was covered in sores. He begged to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. As he lay at the gate, the dogs came and licked his ...read more

    Hell is real. Hell is bad. Hell is eternal. But Hell is avoidable. The good news is that through Christ our sins have been paid for. In Christ there is hope.

    You do not end up as mere food for worms and fertilizer for flowers in a forgotten grave. You will be in one of two places after you take your last breath, and you will face the Sovereign LORD, either as Savior or Judge. Where do you stand on that fact?

    The Holy Bible affirms that there are ONLY two places where your soul can go after death. Either you will be in heaven with God the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the redeemed of all history, or in hell with the devil, his angels, and the wicked of all history, to be ...read more

    Two men in the bible are called Lazarus . The interesting thing about these two men is that both were dead. Dead men don’t speak; they are silent – or are they? Both men spoke from the grave in a very special way. Both are unique. We look at both but mainly Lazarus from John 11.
