God’s Promise For The Rebellious Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Mar 10, 2025

If you’re not following God, then who are you following? For example, if you are following the enemy of God, then why would your ending be different than what is awaiting him in eternity?

The Rich Man And Lazarus Series

Contributed by John Dobbs on Mar 28, 2025

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

Reincarnation: A Biblical Perspective

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Apr 4, 2025

He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Rich Man And Lazarus) # 18

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

This parable is different from most parables because it conveys to us a number of vivid contrasts, such as:

• Riches and Poverty • Heaven and Hell • Compassion and Indifference • Inclusion and Exclusion As we teach this parable, I need to mention that there are some who refuse to teach Luke 16:19-31 as a parable. Their objection is for two reasons: (1) It is the only one of the parables in which ...read more

What In Hell Do You Want?

Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 23, 2022

Eternity without God should lead us to shout, "There is nothing in hell that I want!" Yet, far too many of those living about us act as though there is something wonderful about hell. If that were not so, wouldn't we seek to please the Lord? There is nothing in hell that I want.

“There was a rich man who dressed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. But at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus whose body was covered with sores, who longed to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. In addition, the dogs came and licked his sores. “Now the poor ...read more

"is Hell Real Or Merely A Terrible Dream?"

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Aug 8, 2022

This message raises some thought-provoking questions: What would you do if you were God and your prized creation was in rebellion? After death, do the souls of wicked people go to a place of torment called Hell to later get resurrected and stand before God in the last judgment?

Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time, C-- Lazarus And Therapy Dogs

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 28, 2022

Someone has said that this is the only prayer in the Bible addressed to a saint that was not answered.

We heard today from Luke 16:21, which says “Dogs even used to come and lick his sores.” Admittedly, the grammatical construction in the Greek can be translated as “worst of all" dogs would lick his sores. However, the ancients knew when a dog licks a person's sores or wounds, healing ...read more

It's Our Choice

Contributed by Charles Mallory on Sep 23, 2022

Looking at the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, we see how costly it is to be focused only on "self" and not be mindful to be preparing our soul for eternity.

Choosing The Way Of Christ Over Worldly Goods.

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 24, 2022

The challenge of our Christian calling is to recognize the goodness of creation without building wealth, power and honor into a false god that lures us into worship.

Twenty-sixth Sunday in Course 2022 It’s difficult for most folks in North America, especially those who aren’t fluent in several languages, to understand the full intent of the first word of our first reading today.

Take Notice And Care!

Contributed by Stephanie M. Stark on Sep 24, 2022

We’ve all been there…lean times…maybe some leaner than others, but we all know what it’s like to get creative with what you’ve got. However, I don’t think any of us have ever been forced to beg on the side of a street, and that is where this morning’s lesson begins.

Grace and peace to you from God, our creator, and our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. Amen. Growing up I never knew how poor we actually were. When my mom made macaroni and cheese with ranch style beans, I thought it was because she was trying to be creative, and not because that was all there ...read more
