  • The Reality Of Judgment

    Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Oct 15, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,175 views

    What about all those whose crimes were never discovered and never received the punishment due them? There is a day of judgment coming. No one is going to get by with anything.

    The first is this: Free will makes hell necessary. Hell is God’s great compliment to the human race — by it he is saying, “If you do not wish to live with me, you don’t have to ” And if people do not wish to live with God, there must be a place where they can be ...read more

    Jesus gives 1) A vivid picture of judgment (Matthew 13:47–48), 2) A brief explanation of the principle of judgment (Matthew 13:49), and 3) A sobering warning about the peril of judgment (Matthew 13:50).

    Francis Chan’s new book, Erasing Hell, will be on the shelves from July 5 countering Rob Bell’s recent work, Love Wins. Bell acknowledges hell’s existence on earth but finds it difficult to believe that it is forever and that God can punish non-Christians for all eternity. Chan, on the other hand, ...read more

    The final question which it leaves with us is this: Are you really changed by your contact with Jesus Christ and are you still changing? Everyone in this congregation in one way or another has had a contact, a touch, with Jesus, has heard his voice.

    Opening illustration: A certain man went to Church one Sunday. He frowned when the organist missed a note during the opening hymn. He gave a mean stare at two teenagers talking to each other when the congregation was at prayer. During the Scripture readings, he kept looking impatiently at his ...read more

  • An Unfamiliar Kingdom

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Jul 27, 2014
     | 4,936 views

    While we all have preconceptions about what the kingdom of heaven is and isn't, Jesus uses parables to force us to rethink what the kingdom is.

    What is it that the Gospel message presents? I don’t simply mean today’s Gospel lesson, but the capital-G “Gospel.” The Gospel is not merely, “Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.” The proper name for them is the Gospel according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The ...read more

  • What Is The Kingdom Like?

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,805 views

    Beyond the self-denial of following Christ, beyond the daily discipline, beyond the cross to be carried, lies the most precious thing, a thing of supreme and unsurpassed beauty: life in the Kingdom, under God and for God and with God!

    When you open the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark and Luke, it seems that more often that not, Jesus is speaking in some parable. With colourful language, Jesus places things “side by side,” comparing and contrasting, and drawing out from the picture he paints some truth or teaching. Sometimes the ...read more

  • God's Power Toward Us Who Believe

    Contributed by Mike Bryant on Mar 3, 2021
     | 4,367 views

    Man has always sought unlimited power. God has given believers just that. What is this power that God has given us, and how do we avoid squandering it?

    I) The search for unlimited power has been constant theme of history. A) Politically, we see this in attempts throughout history to rule the world. For example, Alexander the Great ruled Greece at the age of sixteen and soon set out on a conquest that saw him ruling most of the known Western ...read more

    In Matthew Jesus frames up the Jesus Life by speaking about the Kingdom of God. Not a physical kingdom with walls, a castle, and a throne. It is a spiritual Kingdom. Jesus is our King.

    Power Up Kingdom Living   Matthew 13:31-51 Introduction Power Up - it’s what we need to do when our spiritual batteries get low. We need to connect to the power source, overcome temptation, use the power of influence, exercise the spiritual disciplines, and escape judgmentalism in ...read more

    Most scholars believe Matthew was written between 70 and 85 A.D. (C.E.) He combines the 7 parables to explain the reality of why "good" exists along side of "evil". (movie Sound of Freedom) an example. Why are believers even in the church failing?
