Did you know that you are born to die? We are born with a sinful nature. In other words, our parents were sinners, their parents were sinners and on and on all the way back to Adam and Eve. The first parents sinned in the garden of Eden and we’ve all sinned since then. The soul that sins, it shall die (Ezekiel 18:20). Yes we are sinners. Yes we all die. But there was one born to die, who never sinned. [Read more…]
You are walking down the sidewalk tonight and you walk past me. If I said, “Turn to me” you literally would have to turn around and go the opposite direction; the opposite way you are going. This is a picture of repentance. Repentance is a change of mind and a change of heart that leads to a change of actions. You don’t clean yourself up for God to save you. No, when God convicts you over your sins, you repent and trust Jesus to save you. So tonight, I want to share with you that the Lord says “Turn to Me and be saved.” [Read more…]
Evolution is a myth. It is a lie. Evolution was the theory of one God-hater and it is now emphatically embraced around the world by all God-haters. But it is just one man’s imagination gone wild. For over 150 years it was rightly described as The Theory of Evolution. (I say rightly described because it is a theory. It’s a wrong theory, but still a theory). [Read more…]
What’s on your mind tonight? What are you doing downtown? Why are you here tonight? What are you seeking? Are you going out for dinner? Are you looking to get drunk? What’s consuming your thoughts and desires tonight? Again I ask, what’s on your mind? [Read more…]
Lately during my normal Bible reading, I’ve been reading in the book of Leviticus. Yes, this is one of those books where a lot of people start out strong reading the Bible through Genesis and Exodus, but they get bogged down in Leviticus. This book names several sins and the sacrifices the Israelites were to offer for those sins, to atone for their sins. But what struck me recently was where God says, “You shall be holy” and “I am the Lord your God.” [Read more…]
If you’ve heard me open-air preaching before, I’m sure a lot of you think I talk too much about the wrath of God. I do talk about God’s wrath. It is true, it is real and you need to hear about it. The wrath of God is what awaits all unrepentant sinners who die in their sins without Jesus Christ the Lord and God’s wrath lasts forever. But so does the love of God. [Read more…]
I willingly bow my knee to King Jesus. Do you? Is Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior tonight or do you think that you are still in charge? Who or what is first in your life? We all serve someone or something. If Jesus is not the supreme ruler of your life, then you are serving Satan, your fleshly lusts or the world. [Read more…]
The other day I was reading the Bible, specifically Luke 1 and the words “tender mercy of our God” jumped out at me. The tender mercy of our God. These are extremely wonderful, beautiful words. Our God is so merciful that tonight I want to talk about the tender mercy of our God. [Read more…]
I want to start out tonight by asking you a question. Do you call Jesus Lord? Is Jesus your Lord and Savior? Are you really saved? Have you truly surrendered your life to Him? Do you call Jesus your Savior and just stop there or is Jesus truly your Lord and Savior? [Read more…]
Will you split Hell wide open after you die? I know this isn’t a subtle message tonight, but I want you to really think about where you will spend eternity. I want you to think about where your spirit will go the second after you die. Will you go to Heaven? Or will you split Hell wide open? [Read more…]
