Sermons About End
We the Church: Now
Every story has a beginning and a middle and an end. We the church are in the middle, we know the beginning and we proclaim the end, but here and now in the middle we must endure hardships....yet in this we find joy.

Genuine Faith Meditates on the End
People will often speculate about how close we are to the end times and how many prophecies have been fulfilled and how many are left to go. Sometimes this speculation can go too far and cause people to get so wrapped up in when Jesus is coming back that they lose sight of Jesus Himself. The thought that Jesus will come back soon also tends to lead people to withdraw from the world and stop caring about its condition. Peter reminds his readers that the end of all things is at hand and exhorts them to do the exact opposite. He urges us to be self-controlled and hospitable, to serve one another with the gifts that God has given us, and to love each earnestly, because earnest love covers over sins.

The Beginning at the End
While the ending of Mark's Gospel at 16:8 does seem abrupt, in light of the book's structure and intent, it's abruptness can be understood as a call to the reader to respond to the risen Jesus.

Malachi Giving God your best
It is just as true now as it was in Malachi's time. We are to honor God with our best. We are to honor God with our marriages, and we are to honor God with our money, we are to honor him with our lives because the day of the lord is coming.

The Return of the King
In His final hours with His disciples, Jesus promised that even though He was going away, that He would return again. He said He was going to prepare a place for us in His Father's house, that He would come to take us to His Father's home. It was a well-known wedding custom of the day.... A groom would announce his intentions to marry, and then return to his father's home to build on a room where he and his new bride would live. When the room was finished, he would come to the bride's home and escort her back for their wedding celebration. As in many of the stories we've looked at this summer, this weekend's parable comes in response to a question. The disciples asked: "...what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?" (Matthew 24:3). The text, and the surrounding context leaves us with the challenge: Will I be watching and waiting when the King returns? Key Passage: Matthew 25:1-12
