    Sermon for Kids. Written to help them understand the topic of fairness in God's eyes. This is a way of looking at salvation.

I want to give the man who was hired last the same as I gave you. Don't I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or ...read more

    If we start asking ourselves who deserves to be forgiven, we soon find out that the answer is no one. No matter how hard we work, we can’t be “good enough.” The good news of the Gospel is that what can’t be obtained by good works,

    A poor man walking in the forest felt close enough to God to ask, “God, what is a million years to you?” God replied, “My son, a million years to you is like a second to me.” The man then asked, “God, what is a million dollars to you?” God replied, “My ...read more

    In my feeble mind, there are some perplexing things in the word of God that do not measure up. Logically speaking, from the human standpoint I have some disagreements with God. God and I do not see eye to eye on several issues. I

    WHERE GOD AND ME SOMETIME DO NOT AGREE! Matthew 20:1-15 20 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius[a] for the day and sent them into his vineyard. 3 “About nine in the ...read more

    Workers hired at different times of day. Represent? 1. Time they were saved? 2. Amount of 'heat' they took? 3. Proportion of Loss? 4. Amount of Work they did? We complain God isn't being fair. God responds that He knows what's best!

    Take my words and speak through them, take our ears and hear through them, take our hearts & set them on fire with love for you. Amen.

     | 16,277 views

    God's overwhelming generosity is difficult to comprehend, though every Christian has experienced that generosity. We must avoid attempting to cast God in our image, learning instead of the extravagant grace with which He showers each of us.

    “The kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And going out about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and to ...read more

    Saints the Lord has called each of us to work for the Kingdom of Heaven at different times. Some of us since we were very young, others have been called late in life. Still each of us has been called to labour for our King. We will all be paid fairly.

    God’s Minimum Wage Matthew 20:1-16 Have you ever wondered if you were getting paid what you are worth? Is the financial reward worth the effort, is it fair and just?

    Being someone who grumbles or complains is detrimental to our spiritual well-being. Let's see what we can do about that.

    STOP RIDING ON THE COMPLAIN TRAIN Last week my sermon was on making sure we don't lose our song. Jesus put a new song in our hearts-a song of salvation, a song of joy, a song of thanksgiving. But when we suffer hardship or loss it's easy to lose our song. But we need to maintain our song when it's ...read more
