    Having, Losing, Choosing

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 31, 2009
     | 4,460 views

    Whatever we think we possess can be lost. God gives it to us for only so long as we need it, but after that it becomes an idol. We must choose to give away time, talent, treasure for things that do last, and for life itself.

    Almost nothing that you and I count on to be permanent really is permanent. Almost everything that we think will last forever, it turns out, can be destroyed. Anything we have we can also very easily lose. We live in a monumental city. Capitol Hill, the monuments, the Federal Triangle, the White ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 16,568 views

    This is the second message about the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness dealing with the devil offering Jesus the kingdoms of the world if He fell down and worshiped the devil. The focus of the message is on the dangers of shortcuts.

    This message was inspired by a couple of sermons that I read here on Sermon Central. I do not remember who wrote those sermons, sorry! As is often the case with my sermons I did not write out the closing of this message. After reading the message the Holy Spirit should be able to give you an ...read more
