Sermons on humility (Page 2)
God’s Sovereignty in Action
Luke 22:21-32 During the events of the last supper, Jesus informs the disciples that one of them is betraying the Lord. In today’s text we see the conversation that takes place after this becomes known.
Now Therefore Go!
Exodus 3:1-4:17 Why don’t Christians evangelize as we ought? Are there common excuses we use to excuse ourselves from obedience to our Lord in this area?
To Such Belongs the Kingdom
Luke 18:15-17 People bring their children to Jesus to have Him bless them, and Jesus uses this to continue teach on the topic of who enters the kingdom of God.
How Can a Man Be Right Before God?
Luke 18:9-14 Jesus speaks a parable to those who trust in themselves that they are righteous. The world is full of all kinds of religion seeking to answer our question, but the Lord shows that there is one way to be right with God, and it is not by our own merit.

Luke 17:11-19 Man’s condition, according to Romans 1, is such that we supress the truth of God, and refuse to honor Him and give Him thanks.

Humble the Exhalted/Exalt the Humble

Strive to Enter
Luke 13:22-30. As Jesus taught, often those listening were led to ask question regarding his message. On this occasion the question raised is this: “Lord, are there just a few who are being saved?” The answer Jesus gives has significance for all.
Greatness in God’s Economy
Luke 9:46-50. Pride is seen by our world as a virtue, but God sees pride very different. Greatness is found in humility, in serving, and laying aside self.
