Podcasts about take up the cross

Jesus bids me come and die that I might truly live. Breaking the back of the orphan spirit!

We're quick to scoff at Peter for rebuking the Lord Jesus, yet the same self-serving tendency lies in our own hearts. Today, Derek Thomas examines this encounter to emphasize that the call to discipleship is a call to self-denial.

1. The central theme of Mandy's sermon today centered on what it means for us to “take up our cross[es]” and follow Christ. How clear is this concept for you? What about it seems easiest to grasp? What seems hardest? Has any of that changed for you over time? Are there elements that are shifting for you currently in your life as you learn to more and more embrace this idea? If a child asked you “what does that mean?,” what would you say? If a child asked you, “how do you do it?,” what would you say?2. Mandy juxtaposed the idea of a “theology of glory” with that of a “theology of the cross.” She noted emphases on things like prestige, winning, and domination as hallmarks of a theology of glory. On the other hand, selflessness, serving others, and losing our lives were noted characteristics of a theology of the cross. Looking back on the story of your own life, are there different times in which you've seen one or the other as more prominent in your life?Are there different situations, relationships, or contexts in which one seems more likely to be a default for you? Do you see any themes or patterns as you consider these different theologies and ways of engaging in the world and how they may ebb and flow in your own life?3. Mandy closed her sermon by leading us all in reading the Prayer of St Francis of Assisi together. The closing section reads as follows:“For it is in giving that we receive. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.”Which of these three idea seems easiest to embrace and to live? Which seems hardest? Share about any experience you may have pursuing these ideas as realities in your own life. What has that looked like? What has it felt like?As you listen to one another, what ideas, themes, or words are jumping out to you? What's capturing your imagination as you listen to and learn from these friends around you?

'This Lent I pray that we will all choose to walk the path of discipleship, that we will choose to follow Jesus, even knowing that the way won't be easy. We will have to carry our crosses. But as we walk, we do so with our eyes looking ahead to the cross, and beyond to a tomb that stands empty.'

This is the continuation of last weeks' sermon. May this episode nourish your inner-being! Many blessings to you all! 

We dive into the Gospel of Matthew Chapters 16 & 19 and its implications of taking up the cross "willingly" and not forcibly. May this sermon nourish your spirit, soul and body.

Sermon by Nolan Snyder The cross has become the most recognizable symbol of Christianity. Matthew 16:24. "If any man will" shows an open invitation. "Deny himself" show there is a cost, mans sinful nature must die. "Take up his cross" shows action not a passive life. It also shows that God does not force man. "Follow Me" shows that we must follow and show a desire to be like Christ. Matthew 27 John 19

Jesus wanted his disciples to be willing to give up everything to advance the kingdom of God, and he wants the same thing from us today.

Pastor J.D. asks us to count the cost of truly following Jesus. When Jesus called his first disciples, he warned them that it was going to cost them everything. The path of discipleship hasn't changed.

We begin this episode with some personal testimony from Tyler on what's currently going on in his family life and how God is using all these things for good! Diving into a passage from Luke, 22:39-46, Josh then leads us in a symbolic exposition of the Scripture, showing Christians Jesus' example during His most mentally, physically, and spiritually exhausting time of His incarnation, save the crucifixion, the Garden of Gethsemane. This episode is exceptionally practical for Christians during times of mental, spiritual and even physical suffering, encouraging us all to keep pushing forward and even discipling people during times of tribulation and distress! We never know who's watching us during times of temptation and suffering. May we as Christians testify to the goodness of God by our actions so people may see the Image of God and Jesus Christ in us and glorify the God of Heaven! Biblical Passages References: Luke 22:39-46 Ephesians 1 Hebrews 1

Does this scripture line up with your life? Matthew 16:24–26 (NKJV) “Then Jesus said to His disciples, 'If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it." Listen as Pastor Mike breaks down what it means to follow Christ and deny your flesh.

New Hope Weekly Sermon Podcast by Pastor George Bocox

Welcome to Friday, March 26th! Today’s episode of The Cross Talk Daily Devotional is titled: Take Up The Cross! If you desire further information, you may request it from wordgiver@gmail.com.

We shouldn’t view Jesus’ death as an accident or see Him as a victim. The death of Christ fits perfectly within the sovereignty of God. Jesus isn’t calling us to sympathy, but submission.

To follow Jesus calls for real sacrifice more than simply giving up a piece of strawberry cheesecake. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/john6345/message

The cross

wonderful atoning glory unity value

On the Sunday after the Exaltation of the Cross the Gospel includes the Lord's invitation, ”Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.” In order to make a voluntary decision to deny ourselves and take up the cross and follow Jesus, we must know enough about life, and what is good and what is bad in order to make an informed decision. This knowledge must include understanding what is to save one’s life and what it is to lose it, and the answers to the questions: ”For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” Near the end of the sermon, there was the patter of little feet and the distraction of the children caused a very important conversation about the importance of children in the church, and the admonition that all Christians in the church must consider all children to be their responsibility and their joy, and the absolute necessity of praying for one another.

Join us this week for, "Take Up The Cross", Matthew 16:24-28.

God invites us into the family business. Love for the sake of life!

Jesus teaches us that the path to eternal life requires us to take up our cross. During our lives we will make countless offerings to the Lord, and through these sacrifices we will experience the triumph of the Cross of Christ. August 7, 2020 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Jesu laid out the ultimate antithesis for all of us.  Jesus laid before each of us the ultimate demand.  The demand to take up the cross and follow Jesus is not for the religious or the faint of heart.  It take extraordinary courage to follow Jesusand mean it. He brooks no rivals. He will never accept any rivals!  He and He alone must beour ultimate concern.Those who take up the cross to follow Him are never disappointed or ashamed of their decision.  In Him was/is Life and the Life was/is the Light of mankind.  

Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul? - Matthew 16:24-26

John 19:16-17 16 Then he delivered Him to them to be crucified. Then they took Jesus and led Him away. 17 And He, bearing His cross, went out to a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha Luke 23:25-26 25 And he released to them the one they requested, who for rebellion and murder had been thrown into prison; but he delivered Jesus to their will. 26 Now as they led Him away, they laid hold of a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross that he might bear it after Jesus.----more---- Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Mark 10:17-21 17 Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?” 18 So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. 19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ ” 20 And he answered and said to Him, “Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth.” 21 Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me.” Matthew 16:20-21 20 Then He commanded His disciples that they should tell no one that He was Jesus the Christ. 21 From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day. 22 Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!” 23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.” 24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.  Luke 14:27 27 And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.

Contemporary TAKE UP THE CROSS Simon Taylor 25th March 2018 by Busbridge & Hambledon Church

On the Sunday of the Cross in Great Lent, Fr Thomas teaches us that the power of God is found in the righteous actions required of us when we take up our own cross to follow Christ.

The cross of Jesus is not merely a symbol it is the place of new life.  Jesus died for all mankind because God is not willing that any should perish.  Those who believe in Jesus and in his finished work on the cross are saved, and receive eternal life.  After salvation the new believer must undergo discipleship.  Discipleship begans when one takes up the cross to follow Jesus.  There is no other way to become a disciple of Jesus.

The followers of Jesus unleash the power of life by putting our own lives on the line. This is what it means to take up our cross. Like Shiprah and Puah, the midwives of Israel, we put our lives on the line to conspire against injustice and every destructive power, and for the abundant life God gives.

Will You Take Up The Cross Of Christ 8-13-2017 by Aberdeen First AG

Pastor Alvin dela Peña shares about taking up the cross.

During a congregational teaching event in Denver, Ed Anton delivered four messages on "Undaunted Discipleship" including: The Rabbi's Call to Follow The Messiah's Charge to Take Up the Cross The Spirit's Reproof to Convict and Convert The Savior's Assurance of Salvation

Central Coast Community Church Sermons

Nothing is more central to the theme of the Bible than the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. It has been said to be the focal point of all the ages. Today's message takes up how God ‘chose’ the cross to be the expression of His extreme love for us; how Christ ‘chose’ the cross out of devotion to His Father God and the desire for our blessing. And lastly, how we, as believers should ‘choose’ the cross in carrying out God’s purposes in our lives for Him.
