    "God Is Not Our Cosmic Bell Hop"

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Oct 15, 2010
     | 6,767 views

    A sermon dealing with "the persistent widow", and thus our "requests" (as noted by C.S. Lewis and quoted by Dallas Willard in Divine Conspiracy. Jesus uses "contrast" to teach us about God's character and desire to answer our prayers and change our "worl

    "Crying Uncle"

    This is a sermon based on a parable about a God Who does not play favorites for a people who do.

    Luke 18:9-14 “Crying Uncle” You gotta love how this parable starts out: “To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable…” Amazing, in many ways, not much has changed. I suppose there have always ...read more

    Two Men, Two Prayers, And Two Faiths

    At the Temple were two men, two prayers, and two faiths. One trusted in himself and his righteousness. He went home dead in his sin. The other humbly confessed his sin and believed in salvation outside himself. He went home justified by God’s grace.

    Intro At the Temple were two men, two prayers, and two faiths. The first man was a Pharisee. He’s the good guy. He’s respected. He’s forgotten more about the Scriptures than most of us can remember. He’s an example of how to live an upstanding life. Do as he says and ...read more

    The parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector.... one represents all people through history who seek to find "their" own "way" to justify themselves.... and one represents the one who finds Jesus and knows that by faith God sees him/her "just as if I

    Up A Tree And Out On A Limb

    Dramatic monologue, as if Zacchaeus were telling his story. His life was "up a tree", in trouble. He went "out on a limb" to receive the welcome and the salvation offered by Jesus.

    Takoma Park Baptist Church, Washington, DC October 30, 1988 Zacchaeus was a wee little man, a wee little man was he. He climbed up in a sycamore tree, the savior for to see.” Oh ... good morning, good morning. Almost didn't see you there. In fact, I've missed a lot of things, ...read more

    Is Your Prayer Good Enough?

     | 4,222 views

    The Pharisee made a show of his prayer with his arrogance. But the tax collector understood that the heart of prayer must be humility. We have something to learn before we kneel down to pray.

    There was a little boy who was kneeling by his bed with his mom to say his nighttime prayers. He began to shout to the top of his lungs, “Dear God, I’ve been real good this year so please let me get a new bicycle for my birthday.” His mom said, “Johny, God is not deaf; you ...read more

    7 Reasons To Reach The Lost For Christ

    Zacchaeus was like many other people around us. Smiling in the outside but hurting and crying in the inside. All the wealth, power and luxury cannot mend the broken heart cause by rejections and inadequacy.

    7 REASONS TO REACH THE LOST FOR CHRIST Reading: Luke 19:1-10 Luk 19:1 Jesus entered Jericho and made his way through the town. Luk 19:2 There was a man there named Zacchaeus. He was one of the most influential Jews in the Roman tax-collecting business, and he had become very rich. Luk 19:3 He ...read more

    Jesus is still seeking those who are lost.

    Text: “Today salvation has come to this house…For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost” (Luke 19:9, 10). What is salvation? Salvation means deliverance from some type of evil. The evil can be real or spiritual. Jesus is talking about a type of salvation ...read more

    What Changed Zaccheus?

    Jesus doesn't preach to Zaccheus. No moralising, no ridiculing. Just unconditional acceptance. That's all it took change him radically.

    A popular story recounts a meeting that may have taken place at the Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago in 1923. There is debate whether the meeting in fact occurred, but what is not in question is the actual rise and fall of the men featured in the story, who were nine of the richest men in the world ...read more

    Zacchaeus Meets Jesus And Is Saved

     | 10,008 views

    No one is beyond being saved. Our task is the same as Jesus' task - to seek the lost and save them and to be proactive in doing it.

    Jesus was passing through Jericho from the area of Jordan to Bethany near Jerusalem. He was on his way to raise Lazarus back to life. It was an important journey that he was undertaking but as he was going to perform this great miracle he still found time to deal with other people and their ...read more

    Doing The Right Thing Is Not Always The 'done' Thing

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Nov 3, 2010
     | 3,709 views

    A short talking looking at how Zacchaeus and Jesus both did the right thing, even though in the eyes of those around them it was not the 'done' thing. Jesus in particular upset 'all the people' by eating a meal with Zacc. It was not the 'done' thing - but

    There is a phrase from my childhood that has been rattling around in my brain this morning.

    Relationship with Jesus leads to real change, as it did for Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10)

    There are a lot of places the preacher can go with this text, and I suspect many of the hearers and readers will have been exposed to most of them. One of the traditional, and absolutely valid and true, expositions includes Jesus’ choice to minister to those who were outsiders. Tax ...read more

    To clarify the confusion between being religious and being spiritual.

    We are very religious but not too sure, if we are spiritual, what is the difference? Are they the same? On the other hand, do they have different meanings to convey? We often confuse with both the terms, they have very different meaning to convey. In order to understand them better let us first ...read more
