    Jesus Came for Sinners October 16, 2016 Matthew 9:9-13 When you have children you always want to make sure that they hang out with the right people. You scrutinize what you know about their friends. You have your impressions from the times you meet them, the times you see them interact with ...read more

    Today, let us be reminded by the words of Jesus, "But go and learn what this means: "I DESIRE MERCY AND NOT SACRIFICE." For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance." (Matthew 9:13 NKJV)

    Mercy Not Sacrifice, Matthew 9:9-13 Introduction There is the story of the man who came down from the North Carolina Mountains. He was all dressed up and carrying his Bible. A friend saw him and asked, "Joe, what’s happening? Where are you going all dressed up like that?" Joe said, "I’ve been ...read more

    "Crying Uncle"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Oct 20, 2010
    based on 9 ratings
     | 6,310 views

    This is a sermon based on a parable about a God Who does not play favorites for a people who do.

    Luke 18:9-14 “Crying Uncle” You gotta love how this parable starts out: “To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable…” Amazing, in many ways, not much has changed. I suppose there have always ...read more

    To Be Righteous, You Must Be A Sinner Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Sep 17, 2018
     | 6,864 views

    Jesus said the worst among us--the despised and most sinful--who are repentantly trust not on themselves or their goodness will get to heaven and those who trust in their own rightoeusness will not.

    The Paradoxical Sayings of Jesus To Be Righteous, You Must Be a Sinner Luke 18:9-14 Well, I had another chance to share the Gospel this week. As a pastor, it's an occupational hazard! Actually, the opportunity came as a result of a benevolence call. It has become our policy at Risen King that ...read more

    The Pharisee And The Publican

    Jesus Teaches in Parables and Contrasts about the Pharisee and the Publican

    (Luke 18:9-14) "Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican." Through the New Testament Jesus taught in parables. A parable is a story that teaches a truth or moral. And, one of His methods of teaching a parable was to use contrasts. When we have a ...read more

    Is thier a right way to Pray.

    1. The Audience verse 9 To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: Jesus in this parable targets those in the crowd around Him who were self-assured (who trusted in themselves) and were convinced that they were good people ...read more

    Whose Image?

    Contributed by William Mouser on Oct 25, 2005
    based on 41 ratings
     | 13,551 views

    Giving to God what is His requires we recognize what bears His image and, thus, a duty toward Him.

    Whose Image? Matt 22:15-22 The gospel for today has a saying of Jesus that is probably better known than anything else he ever said, with the possible exception of his words to Nicodemus about being born again. The odd thing about Jesus’ words in today’s gospel is this: were not answering the ...read more

    Don't Assume

    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,713 views

    A sermon for a school service of teenagers, not necessarily believers.

    I want to begin this morning thinking about assumptions. If I asked you what is about six inches long and produces a white, frothy substance when rubbed back and forth and in and out, I’m sure you’d all make an assumption, when the answer is in fact a toothbrush. Assumptions cause all ...read more

    I thought God hated child sacrifice? What is God doing asking Abraham to sacrifice his only son?

    OPEN: I read the true story of a woman who told of the time she was teaching the toddler-age Sunday school class. Part of the reason she taught there was that her daughter was in that class. During one lesson on creation she was trying to make the concept as understandable as possible, so she ...read more

    His name had been Saul, but that - along with his entire life - was changed when he met Jesus. What changed him and what can we learn from his experience?

    OPEN: There is a story about a little girl who proudly wore a shiny cross on a chain around her neck. One day her preacher noticed how proud she seemed to be of her pretty cross, and said to her, “Honey, don't you know that the cross Jesus died on wasn't beautiful like the one you're ...read more

    ¿Qué opinas sobre el mensaje de la cruz? Quizás el mensaje de la cruz haya sido una tontería para ti. Hoy puedes ser salvo como resultado del mensaje de la cruz y del poder de Dios.

    La primavera es una época maravillosa del año. Es sorprendente ver cómo una semilla se convierte en una planta. Hay flores con colores brillantes. El diseño da el mensaje de que debe haber un diseñador. Ya sea una planta, una flor, un insecto, las estrellas o el cuerpo ...read more

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 46 – Wild Creatures Take Over. The People Put Their God In The Correct Perspective - Lamentations 5:18-19 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 15, 2025
     | 112 views

    Desolation causes wild animals to thrive and that is what has happened. That is examined. The people are acknowledging they are under God’s control and God is placed on His throne, which is where He should have been all the time in the people’s hearts, but they were in rebellion.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 46 – WILD CREATURES TAKE OVER. THE PEOPLE PUT THEIR GOD IN THE CORRECT PERSPECTIVE - Lamentations 5:18-19 We are in the final verses and there are about three messages to go. The study of Lamentations has been very rewarding as we have delved into each verse. I ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,228 views

    The first beatitude. Not the economically poor but those who are poor in spiritual qualities.

    Certain portions of Scripture seem to be etched more deeply into people's minds than others. Psalm 23 is definitely one of these, so also is I Corinthians 13 and Hebrews 11. The Sermon on the Mount, as Matthew chapters 5-7 is commonly called, is another. Its popularity may stem from its position ...read more

    This message looks at the events of Passion week.

    Introduction: If you only had a week to live what would you do? Some people answer that question by saying that they would go out with a bang, doing all the things they never got to do but wanted to do. That might be traveling and seeing things they had never seen before. Some people might go sky ...read more
