  • 03/04/18 Strive to Enter Through the Narrow Door Luke 13.22-30 Pastor Douglas Scalise, Brewster Baptist Church
    03/04/18 Strive to Enter Through the Narrow Door Luke 13.22-30 Pastor Douglas Scalise, Brewster Baptist Church In Luke 13:22, we’re reminded that Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem where he will die on the cross. On the way, he is continuing to teach with an increasing sense of urgency. Listen to Luke 13.22-30, “Jesus went through one town and village after another, teaching as he made his way to Jerusalem. Someone asked him, ‘Lord, will only a few be saved?’ He said to them, ‘Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able. When once the owner of the house has got up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, “Lord, open to us”’ then in reply he will say to you, “I do not know where you come from.” Then you will begin to say, “We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.” But he will say, “I do not know where you come from; go away from me, all you evildoers!” There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrown out. Then people will come from east and west, from north and south, and will eat in the kingdom of God. Indeed, some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last.’” Someone asked Jesus, “Lord, will only a few be saved?” Luke seems to deliberately avoid telling us who the man was, what group he may have represented, or what his motive might have been for asking the question.

    Third Presbyterian Church Tuesday Bible Study Sermon on the Mount – Lesson 25 “Broadway doesn’t lead to Heaven” Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV) 13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. 1. Share your greatest takeaway or what impacted you most about the sermon. 2. Why are most people apt to believe in heaven but quick to dismiss the reality of hell? 3. What is your impression of the sermon saying that the broad way and the narrow way is on the same road just different directions? 4. How did you find Christ? 5. What was your entry through the narrow gate like? 6. What has been your greatest sacrifice to turn around and head down the narrow way? 7. How might you respond to the charge that Christians are narrow-minded and arrogant? 8. Why do many people prefer the broad way that leads to destruction? 9. In what ways to bumping into others as you head in the narrow direction draining? 10. What can you do this week to point someone toward the narrow way? 11. How can you show God your appreciation for His mercy and grace in leading you to the path of eternal life? P a g e | 1 (7:13-14) Life— Decision: the two choices in life.

  • “The Broad and the Narrow Way”. by the Late Gawin Kirkham – Secretary of the Open-Air Mission
    History and Explanation of the picture “The Broad and the Narrow Way”. By the late Gawin Kirkham – Secretary of the Open-Air Mission (with permission from https://pictureswithamessage.com) The Open-Air Mission. Than Mr. Gawin Kirkham (secretary of the Open-Air Mission) few, perhaps, of those connected with religious and missionary work South of the Thames are better known. The regular readers of the South London Press are not unacquainted with many facts connected with the usefulness, zeal, and thorough devotion of this band of workers, amongst whom may be numbered several hundred open-air preachers, residing in the teeming centres of population from Woolwich to Putney. Unless we an mistaken, the founder of the mission himself (Mr. John M'Gregor — "Rob Roy") is at present, and has been for some time, entitled to be designated a “South Londoner.” Owing to the continued ill-health of "Rob Roy," Mr. Kirkham has had to bear the burden of the duties in the superintendence and general working of the mission for a long time past. In January. 1856 Mr. Kirkham came to London, and offered himself to the Church of England Scripture-Readers” Society. In the following April he was appointed, as reader in the parish of St. Paul's, Bermondsey. At that time the incumbent was the Rev. William Duncan Long. With this gentleman he remained four years—three in St. Paul's, and one in the mother church of St. Mary, Bermondsey. It should be noted that Mr. Long was himself an open-air preacher, and each summer held outdoor services in the principal parts of the parish.

  • The Commands of Christ Sermon # 16 “Choose the Narrow Way”
    The Commands of Christ Sermon # 16 “Choose The Narrow Way” Matthew 7:13-14 In our last examination of the commands of Christ we looked at the command recorded in Matthew seven and verse 12 and called “the Golden Rule,” is probably the most universally praised statement that Jesus ever made. You will remember that Jesus said, “Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.” The imperative command in this verse is the verb (poiete) where it is translated, “you do to them. Therefore we are to not let our conduct be determined by how others treat you, but rather by how God treats you. The next imperative command is found in Matthew seven, verse thirteen. "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. (14) "Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” It Demands A Choice The imperative command is found when Jesus very directly and very strikingly says (eiselthete) “enter.” What is depicted here is life’s greatest choice. This word in its imperative form stresses immediacy, “do it now!” There will not always be time. The gate will not always be open. The choice is between the way of life and the way of destruction. I never read this scripture without thinking of the famous poem by Robert Frost entitled “The Road Less Traveled.” I don’t know that Frost intended any spiritual application when he wrote the poem but it sure describes the choice give in Matthew 7:13-14.

    Cirrus Minor Good afternoon. My name is Björgvin Rúnar Leifsson and this is an episode about Pink Floyd. In 1969, Pink Floyd released two albums. The first one was released in July and the name varied a bit by publications. Mine is called “Original Motion Picture Soundtrack More "but most people simply call this album" More ". As the long name implies, this is a film soundtrack album, the first of two, that Pink Floyd released and contained only songs by themselves. The other was "Obscured by Clouds", which was released in 1972 and which we'll learn about later. Pink Floyd actually composed songs for other films. The first was "The Committee" in 1968, to say the least a bizarre film by director Peter Sykes with almost as weird compositions by Pink Floyd along with the song "Nightmare" by Arthur Brown. The music for the film was never released on an album but the film was released on a DVD about 15 years ago which I own of course. Another film with songs by Pink Floyd was Zabriskie Point in 1970, from which we will hear an excerpt in the next episode. And let's not forget "Tonight Let's All Make Love in London" in 1967, which we heard about in the first episode, and Live at Pompeii in 1972, which shows PF holding a concert for themselves in an empty amphitheater from the time of the Roman Empire in the ancient city of Pompeii in Italy. Last but not least is the 1982 Alan Parker film The Wall based on the famous album since 1979.
