What will keep you out of Heaven? First of all, I believe the parable of the kingdom of heaven that compares it to the workers in the vineyard is a parable that gives some sort of license to people who drag their feet and they take each day for granted and say “I’ll do it tomorrow,” or is a reassurance to those who don’t hear the gospel until late in life and they can have the same reward as those...

Then as I open...

Exodus chapter 16 The Israelites have been wandering the wilderness for a few days/weeks, and they were concerned for what they would eat.  The previous chapter they were concerned for going three days without water… all the while being led by GOD!!  At any rate, they complained because they were filled with food in Egypt, and it would’ve been better had they died in Egypt because they were fed. U...

Being thankful is easy for the big stuff, you have a car, house, job, family, friends, food, etc… Being hateful or resentful or angry… What about being thankful for the most basic, seemingly menial, things God has given you?! A new day Opening your eyes Every breath of each moment of your life It would probably become extremely difficult to name all the things God has given us, without which we wo...

You are your biggest enemy! How can we overcome self? What is our standard of life, that we live for or seek to achieve? 1) Blame - who's at fault when you're life is a mess? 2) Check your ego - what can I do to take accountability? 3) Walk in the Spirit - am I demonstrating the fruit of the Holy Spirit in my life?

No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both

No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.  Proverbs 16:18

God calls us to be his workmanship, to demonstrate virtues that are pleasing to him. It is impossible to be virtuous without contentment.

Throughout the gospels, Jesus clearly gets portrayed as a very patient man. After all, He was surrounded by disciples who constantly doubted him, Pharisees and Sadducees who continually attacked Him, and large crowds who wouldn’t leave Him alone. Despite all of that, He kept His composure and responded appropriately to every individual.

1 Peter 2:22-24 'Who committed no sin, nor was deceit found in His mouth”; who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously

Philipians 4:13 - For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.

Luke 23:34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”

Philippians 2:3-4 Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
