Teaching on the trilogy of parables in Luke 15, focusing on the Parable of The Father. The ones that listened to Jesus tell these parables were considered the worst of the sinners. We are all prodigals having wasted the inheritance given to us - our time, money, and faith opportunities. All of us at some point have squandered that stewardship, but it's never too late to start over with God. All it takes is the right attitude of facing ourselves and turning back to the Father's house. God will give you another chance to start over.

Jesus forgave sins, communed with sinners, and went in to abide with the tax collector, and the Pharisees were offended. Jesus met the people right where they were. The sinful woman was not rebuked for touching and reaching, her sins were forgiven. VF-1774 Luke 7, 15, 19

When Christ was really born and what that birth should mean to us. The 1st part of the message is a study of the courses of the priests to determine when John the Baptist was born, and ultimately to the time of Christ’s birth. The 2nd half is focused on the “fall and rising again of many...” We were chosen to be among those risen up by His coming and that is the best Christmas message we could ever receive.

When Jesus cursed cities that had seen His miracles and not repented, He said that it would be worse for them than for Gentiles that had not known God. Most religions have some concept of hell and eternal punishment, but we can look directly to what Christ said. In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man ended up in a place of separation and torment, whereas Lazarus was taken to heaven by angels. The right starting point for the Christian is not to ask how to avoid going to hell but to begin a right relationship with God, following and trusting Christ. VF-2175 Luke 16:19-31
