Taking Hold of Eternal Life
Paul charges Timothy to take hold of the eternal life he has been called to. Although we receive eternal life as the gift of God through faith in Christ, living in that life is something we must daily take hold of.

God is Supreme
Before we can understand the power and fullness of the flow of God's grace and mercy to us, we have to get our head around the supremacy of God. That He is self-existent. Eternal. Self-sufficient. And, as part of the Trinity, in joyful community with Himself. He doesn't need us for anything.

Luke 18:1-8 - The Right Kind of Faith
For a church to become a biblical community and make biblical disciples, the members need to cultivate an eternal prepsective and a right view of God's gracious actions. In this passage Jesus exhorts his disciples to endure, after rebuking and warning the pharisees about his second coming at the end of chapter 17. This explicitly sets the context of the passage on the second coming of Christ (not a secret rapture). The basic questions that is being asked is "Will God Find faith on earth when he comes again? Will the warnings of Jesus to remember Lot's wife, to keep the heart fixed on Christ, and to not love the world secure the faith of the disiciples? Will they endure to the end?" How can we endure to the end and don't become like Lot's wife - who was too much in love with this world to go all the way with Christ? Jesus tells His disciples not to loose heart but keep praying because God is ready to answer. Our problem with praying is that good things in life and normal beneficial activities in life can make us just as insensitive to the reality of God as gross things in life. Our heart can grow cold to Christ easily. The point of the passage is not to say that Jesus is an unjust judge, but to show his disciples the willingness of God to vindicate His elect when they pray. If an unjust judge will grant a persistant widow her request how much more will God (who is never unjust) be willing to vindiate his elect!

The Real Meaning of Abundant Life (Do You Have Life to the Max?)
Some of the most popular preachers in the world claim that God wants you to live an "abundant life" with exceptional health, wealth and prosperity. Such teaching is entirely false and twists the meaning of John 10:10. This sermon presents the real meaning of abundant life (full, inexhaustible, eternal life) in context of the Gospel of John.

Life After Death
Job had been a success in life. One day, however, Job lost everything, including his health. This caused Job to start thinking about eternal issues. The Chief 'eternal issue' that all of us want an answer to is, "will we live after we die?" That was Job's question.

Heaven and Hell
How do our traditional views of heaven and hell affect the way we think and act now? What if heaven isn't some detached, passive eternal day spa, but an active realm we can join right now?

Imagine - Investing Your One and Only Life
Our only opportunity to make an eternal investment with our time, is the time we invest in what God is doing on earth. That’s why Jesus urged us to get a divine perspective on life: "…Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." There is eternal and cumulative value of small investments of our lives to the church of Jesus Christ over a long period of time. So invest in the eternal!
