August 29, 2009 - Are You the Determined Few? - Luke 13:22-30
A welcome message from Pastor Christopher Doerr:

Many times in the Bible, God says he does nice things for us because of his "grace."  What does that mean?  That means he does those things for us just because he loves us.
 
Oh, how we need a God like that!  It isn't enough to know that there is a God: that there is Someone out there with enough power to get you out of any trouble you find yourself in.  You need to be sure that God will use his almighty power on your behalf.
 
If God helped people in time of trouble, because those people were good enough, polite enough, generous enough, perky enough, clean-living enough----if that were how it worked, how sure could you be that God would help you?
 
It's true, God can't stand badness, impoliteness, stinginess, gloom, and dirty-living.  But through his Son Jesus' work on earth, he can stand you.  And through Jesus he promises in his Bible to help you out of all trouble.  Why did he send Jesus?  Why will God help you?  Only because of his grace.  And remember what that means: just because he loves you. 
 
We want to tell you more about that and more and more and more.  May we please?
