    Liar And Thief At The Gate Of Heaven Series

    based on 44 ratings
     | 6,411 views

    Despite his past, Jacob encounters God and sees that nothing is the same. God in Christ shows us how to protect ourselves from the devil’s claim that life is ordinary and meaningless.

    Last week we established the fact that Jacob was a cheat. After that incident, and before the incident we read of today, we learn that he is a liar and a thief as well. You all know the story of how Jacob masquerades as Esau to obtain his father Issac’s blessing. It is not too much later that ...read more

    Jesus said that many will travel the broad gate to destruction ... but few will enter the narrow gate to Heaven. This message deals with the broad and narrow way.
