    John 14:6 may be one of the richest texts in Scripture. There are some very powerful implications to John 14:6 and it is important for us as Christians to know what they are and what they mean.

    This message was specific for our situation however you may find nuggets. It deals with worldliness, and young christians letting their eyes be drawn off Jesus.

    Believers have rich inheritance rights as children of God, but like Esau some have sold their birthrights. Please, Believer, don’t sell your birthright like Esau: don’t sell your priesthood; don’t sell God’s promises; and don’t sell your power over sin.

    A no name who is a loser. Why would Jesus want anyone to remember her? There is sobering reason for you to consider.

    Why should we remember her? Luke 17:32 32 Remember Lot’s wife. (KJV) 32 Acordaos de la esposa de Lot.

    What Are You Doing In Sodom? Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,858 views

    Sodom represents the allurment of the world. It proved deadly for Lot, and it will just as surely destroy our lives if we venture close to the world.

    Our passage gives us a powerful lesson concerning worldliness. The key question from Genesis 14, “how close can you get to sin before it corrupts you?” The key verse, is Genesis 14:12. There we learn that while Lot first “pitched his tents near Sodom, now we read that Lot was ...read more
