     | 7,438 views

    We should persist in prayer because God’s justice is certain, but our faith is in question.

    “Why Bother To Keep On Praying?” Luke 18:1-8 INTRODUCTION: Do you ever feel as though your prayers are being returned unopened? Does it ever feel like you’re just getting heaven’s voice mail? Like you’re just getting a runaround and you wonder, “Is there anybody else up there I could speak to?” ...read more

    You can be a good person and still die lost and go to hell. You can be a bad person and die saved and go to heaven.

    LUKE 18:9-14 “A GOOD MAN LOST – A BAD MAN SAVED” A) When Jesus preached and taught among men on earth, He found that there were some men which trusted in themselves that they were righteous! * It was to them that He spoke this parable ...

    The Thanksgiving That Doesn't Count

    Contributed by Steve Miller on Jan 4, 2005
    based on 51 ratings
     | 5,689 views

    Real thanksgiving is done with the right attitude. The prayer of the Pharisee was arrogant and despising toward the Publican, therefore it did not count. This sermon was developed for a community Thanksgiving service.

    The Thanksgiving that Doesn’t Count STEVE MILLER, November 23, 2004 Luke 18:9-14 (NKJV) Do you remember the television commercial for Citibank with the two ladies in the grocery store?

    based on 97 ratings
     | 8,281 views

    One of the greatest parables ever told was the story of the Pharisee and the Tax collector. The story is great because it has plot twists and leads to a surprise ending. The word righteousness means “right-standing”. To be righteous means to be in right

    A MAN WHO WENT HOME JUSTIFIED Luke 18: 9-14 One of the greatest parables ever told was the story of the Pharisee and the Tax collector. The story is great because it has plot twists and leads to a surprise ending. In Jesus’ day this simple story surely sent people home baffled and buzzing. The ...read more

Thanksgiving Day is usually observed with religious services and with families celebrations. A large dinner featuring turkey, cranberries and ...read more

    “Respond Humbly” (Luke 18:9-14) Humility. It seems to be a distant character trait in our world today, doesn’t it?
