As Jesus continued on His way toward Jerusalem to be crucified, He made His way into some small towns and villages. In one of those villages, someone asked Him a striking question. They asked, “Lord, will only a few people be saved?” Jesus utilized this question as a springboard to discuss every individual’s need for…
The Lord established His church during His ministry here on earth to bring glory to Him by making disciples from those who have not yet trusted in Him as Savior. The first step in the process of making disciples is evangelism. Evangelism is “telling the story of Jesus’s life, death, resurrection, and second coming with…
We are returning to our study in the Gospel of Luke today. Last time we looked at Luke, we were considering the teachings of Christ about how to live from Luke 12:35-48. In today’s message, we are going to move forward in this idea of how we are to live each day for the Lord.…
We will begin our study today when Jesus gathered His disciples together in the upper room of a home in Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover Seder meal. This was the time when Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper, which we observed as a church body last Sunday evening. During this meal, Jesus shared some important teachings…
In John 12, we see Jesus as the King God intended Him to be—not like other kings who came and conquered by military might, but as the Ruler of a Kingdom that is not of this world. He was like no other king before or since—a king who preached love for our enemies, forgiveness for…
In the second half of Psalm 101, David lays out the kind of leader that he aspires to become—a leader with integrity. Just like last week, we see in these verses, five issues of integrity that are important when it comes to life in general and in leadership more specifically. David had a front row…
After a psalm of praise (Psalm 100), we now have a psalm of practice (Psalm 101). Knowing and understanding God’s call on his life to be the king of God’s chosen people, David resolves to become a king that models himself after the One who has called him. Psalm 101 describes a man of integrity…
Last week, we started a short series studying through Isaiah 55. In this chapter, God is reminding His exiled people of who He is and what He promised to do for them. In those first six verses of Isaiah 55, we saw God’s invitation to have life more abundantly! Then the prophet explained the requirement…
Paul David Tripp said: “The book of Isaiah is really about people who have forgotten. Because of their forgetting, they are sent into exile, and [then] are restored again. This passage… is written to people who are in exile who are now called to remember as they are going to be restore, called to remember…
One of the more well-known verses in the Bible is found in 2 Corinthians 5:7, which says, “for we walk by faith, not by sight.” In Numbers 13-14, we find a group of people who abandoned this biblical concept for a different philosophy. You see, they decided to walk by sight, and not by faith!…
