Luke 19:11-27

We have great need to remember that we no longer belong in this world, we are citizens of another Kingdom. We live in an age and a generation where living is all about living for me! My ambitions, my dreams, my desires! We’re so taken up with self and self’s things.

Yet, when we get our hearts right, we’ll get our priorities right; and when we get our priorities right, the fruit of the Master’s basket will once again be full!! It WILL come at cost and it will also come at a loss. Are you ready and willing to pay that price?

1 Kings 13:1-10

As one peruses the pages of the New Testament, there stands on record a clear and visible warning to believers against the dangers of deception. When asked by His disciples, “...what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world” (Mt. 24:3); before ever our Lord made mention of wars and rumours of wars, before ever He spoke of famines, pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places, He first gave warning against the dangers of deception.

In a day of great spiritual deception, we need more now than ever to be vigilant against the smooth infiltration of imposters into the Body of Christ. May this sermon serve as a reminder and a warning for us to take heed.
