    The Lukewarm Church Of Laodecia

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Nov 17, 2019
     | 4,307 views

    Lukewarmness is like a dud bomb. Accomplishes not a thing. Jesus Christ prefers us to be passionately against God or, much better, passionately for God. And He disciplines us because He loves us so very much. Thanks to William Barclay's insights which are reflected throughout this message.

    November 17 Sermon - The Churches of Revelation - Laodicea So we have come to the end of our look at the churches of Revelation, today being the last day. And it’s been a fascinating journey to see some of the challenges that the early church faced, and how Jesus directly, through this ...read more

    Some people ought to be excluded, in prison, deported, disqualified from leading a church, and quarantined in sickness. However, other people are marginalized unjustly. Let's see what Jesus taught about righteous inclusion in Luke 14:1-14.

    Jesus told the rich young ruler to sell everything that he had, give it to the poor and follow Him. Do I have to give away everything to follow Christ? Do I have to sell all that I have in order to please Him?

    Ravi Zacharias tells the story about a boy that loved collecting marbles. He lived next door to a little girl who had a lot of candy. She said to him: “If you’ll give me all of your marbles, I’ll give you all of my candy.” He said he’d think about it. The next ...read more

    Contributed by Lewis Martin on Apr 7, 2025
     | 661 views

    Jesus tells a parable in Luke 16 that pulls back the curtain—revealing what happens when we live with closed eyes and closed hearts. It’s the story of a rich man, a poor beggar named Lazarus, and the eternal consequences of spiritual blindness.

    Sermon: "Eyes That See" (Luke 16:19-31) Scripture Reading (Luke 16:19-31 - NLT): 19 Jesus said, “There was a certain rich man who was splendidly clothed in purple and fine linen and who lived each day in luxury. 20 At his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus who was covered with sores. 21 As ...read more

    People who believe that the whole earth & every thing in it belongs to their Lord (Ps. 24:1) readily recognize that the resources of their own lives, which, no matter how hard they toiled and how judiciously they spent, were utterly dependent on God's gra

    Proverbs 11:24–26 GENEROSITY IN GIVING [2 Kings 4:1–7] Proverbs offers practical instructions on the use of money, although sometimes it's advice we would rather not hear. It is more comfortable to continue in our habits than to learn how to use money more wisely. Money is ...read more

    The Rich Man And Lazarus

    An Appointment with Fate I love the verse in Psalms Chapter 122 vs. 1 which says “I was glad when they said unto me; let us go into the House of the Lord.” Isn’t it wonderful to be in the House of God this morning where there is always a welcome sign above the door? I remember during my ...read more

    Like St. Benedict, we must live simply if we are to successfully share the gospel of Jesus.

    The great saints, like St. Benedict whom we celebrate today, bear witness that the words of today’s Gospel are not just for the first century.

     | 3,938 views

    This rich man stands in stark contrast with the many whose lives were changed through their encounter with Jesus. From Andrew to Zacchaeus, men and women shared in the joy Jesus offered them through a renewed relationship with God. That joy is for those

    The Camel the eye and the faith to get through A Sermon for the 22nd Sunday of Pentecost Luke 18.18-30 This story of the joylessly religious rich man is a setting for the most memorable of images - that of the camel trying to get through the eye of a needle.

    The Peril Of Having Too Much Series

     | 2,310 views

    The rich young ruler and his decision to walk away from the call of Jesus shattered the disciple's beliefs about riches being an exclusive sign of favor with God. Money and possessions tend to be a hindrance to faith in Him instead.

    A young man whom the Scriptures refer to as a "rich young ruler" came before Jesus with a question on how to obtain eternal life. After using the Law as a means of examining his motives, Jesus instructed him to go and sell all his possessions in order to receive spiritual treasure and ...read more

    Intro: This morning marks the first Sunday of Lent. This is a period of six weeks, leading up to Easter, in which we prepare for the glorious resurrection of our Redeemer.
