NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: The Parting Of The Ways

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The thief on the cross came to a parting of the ways between his old life and the brand-new one the Lord Jesus just gave him.

The thief on the cross had a life-changing experience when he came face-to-face with the Lord Jesus on the cross at Calvary. He started out with his other malefactor friend, casting aspersions into the teeth of Jesus, then something happen. He got a good, long look at the “man in the middle” of his particular situation, and that led to an abrupt “parting of the ways” between himself and his friend, between his new life and his old life.

“And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:39-43 (KJB)

My message today is a simple one, the first part of it is a reminder of the parting of the ways that took place when you got saved. That’s easy to understand. The harder part is understanding that after you’re saved, there needs to be another parting of the ways with what you perceive to be your time, your talent, and your treasure. All that belongs to the Lord Jesus now, He bought it when He bought you with His blood on the cross, and if you want success in your sanctification, there needs to be a parting of the ways. The degree to which you are able to do that, is the degree to which you will have a good experience at the Judgment Seat of Christ.

NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: Your Adversary The Devil

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

In these last days of the Church Age, our adversary Satan is walking about seeking whom he may devour, don’t let his next catch be you!

We live in a day and age where Satan is walking about openly, seeking whom he may devour, looking to pick off the sheep of the Lord one at a time. The apostle Paul gives us some very easy to obtain, low-hanging fruit about our Christian walk that, when implemented, gives us a very good barrier of protection between us and Satan. Preached live this morning from Bethany Baptist Church in Saint Augustine, Florida.

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” 1 Peter 5:8 (KJB)

Your Adversary The Devil

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” 1 Peter 5:8 (KJB)

(animals look for the ‘weak spots’ either in toys or prey!)

“I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.” 1 Corinthians 15:31 (KJB)

“Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:” Philippians 3:17,20 (KJB)

HOW TO FIGHT APATHY: Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness. Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.” Romans 12:8-14 (KJB)

Heart Right and Doctrine Right

“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.” Ephesians 4:11-16 (KJB)

NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: The Mother Of Us All

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

On this Mother’s Day, the apostle Paul tells us that New Jerusalem is the ‘mother of us all’ and the gospels present Jesus Christ as a ‘mother hen’

In Proverbs 31, we see the lengthy mention of a ‘virtuous woman’, and it talks about the many wonderous things she does for her husband, her children  and in the administration of her household. A quick reading of the chapter leads you to see the quality of the ‘godly woman’, but a closer examination shows you something quite different. It shows you Jesus Christ as the ‘mother hen’, opening His wings (see Psalm 91) to gather together his children for comfort.

“But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.” Galatians 4:26 (KJB)

Just as Eve gave birth to her earthly children, so are we the children of God begotten through the gospel of Jesus Christ. On this Mother’s Day Sunday Service, I would like to show you Jesus Christ and New Jerusalem, which the apostle Paul tells us, is the mother of all of us who believe.

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: The Mother Of Us All

The Mother Of Us All

“She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.” Proverbs 31:26-28 (KJB)

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!” Matthew 23:37 (KJB)

“For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.” 1 Corinthians 4:15 (KJB)

“And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.” Genesis 3:20 (KJB)

“But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.” Galatians 4:26 (KJB)

NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: I Shall Be Satisfied

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

We live in a world that is constantly working to draw us away from living a satisfied life in Jesus Christ and being effective in His service

The psalmist David wrote “As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.” Psalm 17:15 (KJB). My message today on this Sunday Service asks the question, are YOU satisfied in the Lord Jesus Christ? And if so, are you doing the things He commands you to do?

“As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.” Psalm 17:15 (KJB)

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: I Shall Be Satisfied

I Shall Be Satisfied

  1. “As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.” Psalm 17:15 (KJB)
  2. “For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.” Philippians 3:20,21 (KJB)
  3. “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.” 1 John 3:2 (KJB)

“And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” Revelation 1:5,6 (KJB)

“Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.” Proverbs 27:20 (KJB)

“The fear of the LORD tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.” Proverbs 19:23 (KJB)

“Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” Philippians 4:11-13 (KJB)

“But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.” 1 Timothy 6:6-8 (KJB)

“Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Hebrews 13:5 (KJB)

“But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.” 1 Timothy 6:11,12 (KJB)

“God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.” 2 Samuel 22:33 (KJB)
