Matthew 7, Part 4

Enter by the Narrow Gate       by Jay Meyer       February 17, 1013

 The word of God in Matthew, Chapter 7, verse 13 says: Enter by the narrow gate.  For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Jesus is saying, now that you have heard what this Kingdom looks like, you will have to make a decision. Will you choose to become part of it or will you just think that was an amazing message and go back to life as usual? Jesus is calling people to be participants in this new way, this different Kingdom, this alternate reality.  This is a call to action and he calls us to act. Find out how and why  in today's podcast.

God's Heart and Call To The Lost

February 10, 2013             by John Cox                God’s heart and the Call to the lost

Always pray, Never give up:   Last week, Jay said: “You can’t expect to access the resources of the Kingdom of Heaven if you are operating in the principles of the other kingdom.” It applied as well to people who are, and will be, coming into the kingdom. It’s this i want to think about today for just a little while – this idea of people encountering the Kingdom of God, and entering His Kingdom. I want to contrast our rational western thinking patterns – that other Kingdom – with the way that the Kingdom of God operates – as it relates to how it is that you and i got here in Christ Our default in this country is to rely on persuasion and knowledge (neither is bad) to bring people in – I want to contrast this with what I call persistent intercession and humble readiness... How did I get there?
