    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Thief And The Servants) # 19

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,867 views

    As we look at the coming of the Lord as a thief in the night, the emphasis is on the element of surprise.

    For example, a thief does not call the home that he plans to enter and say, “About one O’clock this evening I plan to arrive.” When he enters a home, he wants the element of surprise to be on his side.And the Bible tells us in Matthew 24:36, “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the ...read more

    Unlike the Centurion, we can know for sure that we are worthy to come to Jesus.

    Worthiness. We have all, at some point and time, dealt with and even battled with various feelings of being unworthy, inadequate, not talented enough, or simply think we’re all thumbs and have two left feet. Whether it is standing in front of the commander to give a briefing, going to the ...read more

     | 14,015 views

    People refuse to accept God’s authority. We don’t want to be tenants in God’s Vineyard. We want to be the owners.

When I was growing up it was the standard playground retort to an insult. But of course we all know that those words were simply a bluff. They had ...read more
