    This Rich Young Ruler is recorded in three of the gospels. (Matthew 19:16-26, Mark 10:17-27, Luke 18:18-27) In this encounter, a rich, young man chooses money over God.

    The Rich Young Ruler: Seeking Eternal Life ?A ruler came running to Jesus and kneeled to him. He asked Jesus, "Good Master, what must I do to receive eternal life?" In Matthew's account, the ruler phrased the question slightly differently: "Good Master, what good thing must I do ...read more

    God invites us to courageously step into His promises, trusting His faithfulness and love, rather than hesitating in fear or doubt.

    Have you ever stood on a threshold with your hand on the knob, heart racing, knowing there’s goodness inside but still hesitating to step in? Maybe it’s a fresh calling, a new season, a second chance. Maybe it’s peace after a long storm, or hope after a hard night. God brings us to thresholds. He ...read more

    Greatness In Serving Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 6, 2021
     | 4,156 views

    The disciples had to learn, often the hard way, that following Jesus does not mean favoritism from Him. They had to learn that service towards God and others is to be done with a loving, gracious attitude and not with an ego.

    You have to admit that James and John thought a lot about their ability to serve the Lord Jesus. They wanted places of honor in the Kingdom of God without coming to grips with the hardship that follows everyone who gives their lives to Him. The disciples and all who would surrender their lives ...read more

    No to the Spirit Of Diotrephes (3 John 9-10) I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. 10 So when I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us.

    However you may succeed in your endeavors, without Christ, there will still be a missing piece of your life.

    Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life? Why do you ask me about what is good? Jesus replied. There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments. Which ones?, the man enquired. Jesus replied, ’Do not murder, do not ...read more

    In our passage we find the actions that one takes when he is striving to give himself to Christ as God requires in His Word. By the grace that is the believer¡¦s through his salvation, every man can purify & adorn himself as God requires.

    TITUS 2: 11-15 SAVED BY GRACE [1 Timothy 2:4-8] Last week we learned that we adorn the Gospel by our behavior and actions (2:10). But why should the Christian pursue this respectable and dignified life? The grace of God is the reason why every member of the God's forever family can and should ...read more
