     | 7,277 views

    The rich young ruler had it all - almost! One thing kept him from that which he needed the most - Jesus. What one thing is there in your life that is keeping you from coming to Jesus or going deeper with him?

     | 17,808 views

    The Lord Jesus was on His way to the Cross. If this man followed Jesus, it would lead him to the foot of the cross. Something, however was keeping him from going after the Lord. His riches were his stumbling block.

    Perea Rich Young Ruler (Exodus 20:1-17) Matthew 19:16-30, Mark 10:17-31, Luke 18:18-30 16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? 17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on May 21, 2011
     | 9,252 views

    One of the most difficult teaching (Yet true) teachings of Jesus concerns the "eye of the needle". While this is not a theological exegesis of the text, this message speaks to practical truths found in this text.

    The Principle of “The Eye of the Needle” Luke 18:18-30 * "How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God! For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God." These are the words of Jesus as recorded for 3 of ...read more

    Rich Young Ruler

    YOUR MONEY OR YOUR LIFE? (LUKE 18:18-27) Few Bible characters are richer than the ruler. Luke says he was very wealthy and Matthew and Mark says he had great possessions (KJV) in plural (Matt 19:22, Mark 10:22), to be compared to the singular possession Ananias donated to the church (Acts 5:1). ...read more

    Talk Is Cheap

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2019
     | 7,164 views

    Actions or works may not create faith but they can reveal the substance and form of a person’s faith. To me, works is our faith made visible. “For just as a body without the spirit is dead” … a corpse … “so faith without works is also dead” … a corpse (James 2:26).

    [Put up picture of me on screen.] Let me tell you a little bit about that man in the photo. He was 40 years old when that picture was taken. He was 20 months sober at the time. Well … “sober” is not the right word. He was a dry drunk” … which means that he hadn’t picked up a drink in 20 ...read more
