| | When the Unseen Becomes Visible by Carter Conlon
Topic: Faith
Scripture(s): Luke 2:7-14 | | Description: December 20, 2009 - This message is for those who know the right thing to do but find that you are powerless to do so. It’s for: dishonest people who want to trust God but don’t know how, selfish people that want to be generous, wounded hearts that want to let go and forgive, and the verbally abusive who have a desire to speak with kind words. How do we get free from this? How do we experience peace on earth and goodwill towards man? The answer is the gift of Jesus. God in the flesh burst forth into the visible because humanity had no way out! This is the message of Christmas. He came with a display of compassion for our weaknesses and nailed them to a Tree. The good news is that Jesus forgives our sin and enables us to live a life that is pleasing to Him and those around us.

| | (Luke) 07 - Greatness Of His Coming by Ed Miller
Topic:
Scripture(s): Luke 2:1-24, Hebrews 1:6 | | Description: Our over familiarity with the Christmas story can make the powerful truth of it become "la la la". Brother Ed shows the picture of God's infinite condescension in becoming a baby--the Bread of Life (Jesus) being laid out in a dish (manger) in the House of Bread (Bethlehem) for anyone to partake! No less than 100 million angels worshiped the Son as He made His first appearance into the world as the Son of all mankind.

Topic:
Scripture(s): Luke 2:8-20, Luke 2:25-32 | | Description: Jesus came for all mankind, both Jew and Gentile, but in a special way to those who seek Him.

Simeon illustrates the role of the Holy Spirit in any seeking, God's providential timing, and the assurance that no one who seeks Christ dies without Christ.

| | The Shepherd Song by Carter Conlon
Topic: Shepherd
Scripture(s): Luke 2:1-20 | | Description: September 28, 2008 - There is a great revelation of God coming to this generation. This revelation will not be given to the self indulgent and the self seeking. It will be given to the humble person who desires to live their life for the betterment of others. God will come in the midst of darkness and reveal Himself to the shepherds who are simply looking after their flock. Suddenly the heavens will be opened and by the grace of God we will begin to reach out to those who are hungry and hurting. Suddenly our ears will be opened to the worship of Heaven and we will sing a song of trust and confidence in God. A song that says, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace and good will towards men." Our song is a living expression of trust in God.

| | Lost and Found: The Prostitute by C.J. Mahaney
Topic:
Scripture(s): Luke 7:36-50 | | Description: C. J. Mahaney shows how a loss of our awareness of our own sinfulness creates a lack of love and affection towards Jesus.

| | When Tears Come to a Religious Man's House by Carter Conlon
Topic: Religion
Scripture(s): Luke 7:36-47 | | Description: January 14, 2007 - When Jesus comes to a religious man's home the religious man will not touch the feet of Jesus because the dirt of this world is on them. He doesn't want this dirt on his hands because it offends his religion. The fruit of this religion that does not have the heart of God in it is a cold formality and a skepticism. When was the last time you raised up your hands to God and thanked Him for what He has done in your life and His faithfulness? Tears of gratitude refresh Jesus. These tears come from a genuine work of God and a worship that remembers where He brought us from and that He is the source of my work.

| | (Luke) 22 - Doubts Of John The Baptist by Ed Miller
Topic:
Scripture(s): Luke 7:18-39 | | Description: Some lessons we can learn here is that when we have doubts, send them to Jesus. We should also never judge the reality by outward appearances. Though Jesus never visited John in prison, He had a high regard for him, and we can expect in our trials at times not to hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant," down here. There is a difference between doubting (struggling faith) and disbelieving, and the good news is that God accepts struggling faith as faith.

Scripture(s): Luke 7:36-50 | | Description: How can we love the Lord Jesus and be freed from a cold heart? It's by entering into how much we've been forgiven. Brother Ed shows from the devotion and love of the sinful woman how it is impossible to embarrass the Lord and you don't have to defend yourself of the criticisms of others.

| | The Casual Receiving of Christ by Carter Conlon
Topic: Christ
Scripture(s): Luke 7:36-50 | | Description: When we have a wrong perception of Christ, we will predetermine the level of service we will give to God. We may sit under the preaching with a pretense of wanting to be taught, but in reality we will not be moved from our view. We are living in a generation where some of the body of believers are using the name of Jesus for their own objectives. When we have a proper perspective of Christ we will reverence His presence, and stand in awe of the fact that He comes into our homes and into our heart. We will take out a basin and wash the feet of Jesus with worship, prayer and gratitude. We will embrace His word trusting it to be a higher reality than every situation we are facing.

| | Lost Dimension in Christian Living by Leonard Ravenhill
Topic: Worship
Scripture(s): Luke 7:36-50, John 17:1-5 | | Description: The lost dimension is worship. Normally we stand to sing, we kneel to pray, but we prostrate ourselves to worship. Praise is a prelude to true worship. Prayer is preoccupation with our needs. Praise is preoccupation with our blessings. Worship is preoccupation with God Himself. Many Christians substitute service for worship, remembering the first commandment is to worship the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your mine and all your strength, and to worship Him in spirit and truth and the beauty of holiness; for the Father seeks those who will truly worship Him.
