How many funeral services have you attended in your life? Death is an enemy and it has hurt every one of us. Some of us it has hurt deeply.
There is a chapter in the Bible that is, in a sense, devoted to the vivid reality of death and that is Genesis chapter 5.
The antediluvian period is the time period chronicled in the Bible between the fall of man in Genesis 3 and the Genesis flood narrative that begins in chapter 6. We aren’t told a great deal about life in the antediluvian world but what we are told is fascinating.
Death is universal and the pain of death is universal. Romans 5:12 says, “Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all...”
All the deaths we see are the results of sin's devastating rule over mankind.
Today, we live in a cursed creation that has earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, monsoons, tsunamis, tidal waves, deadly creatures and deadly diseases.
So much was lost when Adam and Eve sinned, and it won’t be fully reversed until we get to the new heaven and the new earth, which is described in Revelation 21:4.
One of the lies that has lead to incalculable damage in the lives of people down through the centuries is the lie that says “It’s no big deal if I do this one time.”
But there are always consequences.
Living life on this planet can often result in some very painful experiences. When Adam and Eve chose to sin, it changed everything forever, and we would've made the same choice if we were there.
Marriage is under attack in our nation today. The list of factors that are causing marriage and the family to be obliterated is a long one, and all of it goes back to a godless philosophy that permeates the thinking of our nation in regard to marriage... even among Christians. It is imperative to get the Creator's viewpoint on the subject if we are going to have the kind of marriages God intended.
It has been said that a real estate agent’s mantra is: Location, location, location. When it comes to living in an ideal location, there has never been a place like the Garden of Eden.
Jesus did certain works as evidence to those struggling with ignorant unbelief. We look at an example of this in Luke chapter 24.
One of the strongest pieces of evidence in a court of law is eye witness accounts. That’s part of what makes the resurrection of Jesus such a strong case.
The resurrection should give us an eternal perspective on life so that we value eternal things more than earthly things.
To fully appreciate the resurrection of Jesus, it’s important that we understand His unique burial.
The final words of Jesus from the cross are at the top of the list of some of the most meaningful statements in all of human history.
Looking at humanity from the standpoint of today's passage, there are only two kinds of people in the world: there are those who are ready for eternity and those who are not. Which is it for you?
Why did Jesus go through the crucifixion? Just look in the mirror. He did this because of and for you and me.
Many people are so spiritually blind that they fail to see the significance of their decision regarding what to do with Jesus.
Most people are more concerned with what others think of them than they are with being true to the Lord Jesus Christ. So was Pilate in Luke chapter 23.
Never has there been a greater miscarriage of justice than when Jesus was arrested and tried as a criminal. We see the beginning of that corrupted process in the final verses of Luke 22.
We have all been in situations where we have not stood up for the Lord in the way we should have responded. Maybe that’s why we all can relate to the Apostle Peter's actions in Luke chapter 22.
Today, we enter into the emotion and the significance of the resurrection by considering its impact on the life of the Apostle Peter.
Nothing has ever been as atrocious as when Jesus was betrayed, arrested, beaten, whipped, tried, and eventually crucified as we are told in Luke chapter 22.
When Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane, the weight of the burden that was upon Him was so great that it squeezed out of Him His own blood
Have you ever been in a situation in life where people around you are examining your every word and your every move in an attempt to try to find something to use against you? That’s what Jesus experienced throughout His 3.5-year ministry, reaching a climax during the last week of His life.
It’s only when you’re really hurting that you can fully appreciate the words of Hebrews 4:15-16, which say, “For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find help in time of need.” Jesus understands. Jesus wept. We look at that event in our text this morning in Luke chapter 19.
Jesus was in control of His own death and its timing. In this passage, we see Him setting things into motion to move toward His crucifixion.
Life on planet Earth can be very difficult at times. Paradise was lost in Genesis chapter 3 but paradise will one day be restored!
