    Everybody talkin' 'bout Heaven ain't goin' there. The Word of God is quite clear that many will be excluded from Heaven. The message is a plea to those who are casual about God to avoid this condemnation.

    “[Christ, seated on His throne] said to [John], ‘It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son. But ...read more

     | 6,320 views

    Is there a way for us to make ourselves acceptable to God? The Apostle Paul teaches that such a thought is an impossibility.

    “We know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God. For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.” [1] “So that ...read more

    The resurrection and its impact on the life of the believer.

    “If Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. ...read more

    James cautions us against cheating those to whom we are indebted. The message explores some of the parameters of this admonition.

    God is sovereign. God is just, and He is merciful. Your view of God dictates how you treat mankind.

    “The word of the LORD came to me: ‘What do you mean by repeating this proverb concerning the land of Israel, “The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge?” As I live, declares the Lord GOD, this proverb shall no more be used by you in Israel. Behold, all souls are ...read more

     | 1,492 views

    If we dishonour Christ by treating the Lord's Table with disdain, we can anticipate His discipline.

    A review and application of the ministry of Amos, known to standing with God and against religion.

    “Amaziah said to Amos, ‘O seer, go, flee away to the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there, but never again prophesy at Bethel, for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a temple of the kingdom.’ “Then Amos answered and said to Amaziah, ‘I was no prophet, nor a prophet’s son, but I ...read more

    Study of the revival that occurred during the reign of Hezekiah, focusing in particular on the suddenness with which God moved the hearts of the people and the conditions that preceded that revival.

The number of the burnt offerings ...read more

    We are called to judge ourselves, especially focusing on our motives, as we come before the Lord's Table.

    “Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord.

    The message is a reflection on the sacrifice of the Christ--why it was necessary for Him to be pierced and why it was required that He be crushed. The message is a reminder that our peace results from His suffering in our place.

    “He was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed.” [1] Midst the ubiquitous celebrations of this Christmas Season, as the streets of our cities are decorated with colourful banners ...read more

  • 0803b Trinity Iii: The Hound Of Heaven, Part Ii Series

    Contributed by Mark Woolsey on Jun 7, 2008
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,374 views

    The lesson from these parables is that Jesus DOES give up on some people, and that only seeing it in this way is there any good news. If you think the message of these stories is that God never gives up on anyone, I suggest you have gotten it backwards.

    Sermon: The Hound of Heaven, Part II Text: Luke 15:1-10 Occasion: Trinity III Who: Mark Woolsey When: Sunday, June 8, 2008 Where: Providence Reformed Episcopal Church Luke 15:1-10, NKJV: Then all the tax collectors and the sinners drew near to Him to hear Him.
