In the parable of the two sons, Jesus exposes the danger of saying the right thing while refusing to obey. The issue is not religious appearance, but whether the heart is truly submitted to God.

This sermon from Matthew 21:28–32 calls sinners away from empty words and toward faithful obedience to the King.

The disciples wanted to know who would be greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Jesus answered by placing a child before them and teaching that unless they turned and became like children, they would never enter the kingdom.

This sermon from Matthew 18:1–4 considers the necessity of humble repentance. Before asking who is great in the kingdom, every sinner must ask whether he has entered the kingdom through Christ.

Jesus did not come to abolish the Law and the Prophets, but to fulfill them. In Matthew 5:17–20, Jesus teaches that God’s kingdom, God’s Word, and God’s righteous standard stand forever.

This sermon considers the perfection required to enter the kingdom of heaven and the good news that Jesus fulfills the law’s demands for all who are saved by Him.

When Jesus began to preach, His message was clear: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” The coming of the kingdom is good news, but it is also a summons. The King has come, and sinners are called to turn from sin and self and submit to His righteous rule.

This sermon from Matthew 4:17 considers repentance as a word of confrontation, action, and truth. The warning is urgent, the way of salvation is singular, and the hope of the gospel remains: repent and be saved.

In 2 Kings 2:1–19, Elijah’s ministry comes to an end and Elisha’s begins. Yet the work of God does not end with Elijah. The Lord is eternal, His Word remains unchanged, and His kingdom continues from one generation to the next.

This sermon calls the church to prepare faithfully for endings and beginnings. All men come to an end, each generation must invest in the next, and God’s people must affirm faithful calling and service for the ongoing witness of the gospel.
