Jesus Is Lord Of All, Or He Is Not Lord At All

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 2, 2007

A challenge to professing Christians who claim allegiance to Christ as Master of life, though they do not reveal His reign over their lives.

“Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you?” All else being equal, we have as much power in our service before the Lord as we have obedience to His commands.

Has Jesus Touched Your Eyes? Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Aug 20, 2012

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 30, 2013

Friends, is there anyone here today who feels like they need a Savior? You will never look for him, until you do feel your need for him. You must recognize that there is sin in you, sin for which you cannot make atonement, sin that you cannot overcome.

Tripping On Jesus (Luke 7:17-35) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 7, 2024

In one key way, Jesus isn't the Messiah people (including John) expected. Are we ok that this piece is missing, or does it make us trip on the idea that Jesus is Messiah, and thus trip on God? A narrative/literary approach to Luke.
