May 31, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:21–23
Imagine entering heaven, walking up to Jesus and having Him say, “I have no idea who you are!” That’s the scenario we’ll discuss today, as we look at Matthew seven, verses twenty-one through twenty-three. There are people today who think they’re saved Christians, but will be unknown to Jesus. Want to avoid that possibility for you?
A False Sense of Security - Part 1
May 30, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:21–23
Today we begin a message titled “A False Sense of Security”, taken from Lloyd’s series on the Sermon on the Mount. One of the proofs of an authentic relationship with Christ is the way you talk - the words you use. But, it goes much further than mere words. We must act like Christians as well.
Fruit Inspection - Part 2
May 29, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:16–20
Welcome to Bridging the Gap with Pastor Lloyd Pulley. Lloyd will remind us that there are some very real evidences to be seen in the life of a Christian. Simply to call yourself a Christian is not enough. Your life should reflect the changes that Jesus Christ has made in your life.
Fruit Inspection - Part 1
May 28, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:16–20
The mouth may tell more about a person’s soul than any other part of the body. It’s one thing to say you are a believer in Jesus Christ, but does your life make your mouth a liar? In Matthew chapter seven, Jesus said to those who profess to know Him and really don’t, ”depart from me, I never knew you.” Surely that is not the situation any of us want to find ourselves in, so let’s get our mouths and our souls on the same page. Here’s Pastor Lloyd.
Beware of False Prophets - Part 2
May 27, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:15
Christ warns us that false prophets are ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing. That should serve as a wake-up call to every believer to learn to tell the difference between a true man of God and a ravenous Wolf. Today we’ll discover that to learn a man’s intent, you need look no further than his life, and the fruit he bears.

Beware of False Prophets - Part 1
May 24, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:15
In Matthew chapter seven, verse fifteen, Jesus called false prophets ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing. That’s a pretty stark description of those who would attempt to lead believers in Christ astray, but that is exactly what was going on back then - and it continues to go on today. In fact, there has never been a time when more false prophets have preyed on believers than today. We must beware. We must learn to discern.
Narrow Gate and Difficult Way - Part 2
May 23, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:13–14
Last time we began a message from Matthew chapter seven, verses thirteen and fourteen. In these two verses from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells us that the way to heaven is through a narrow gate, but the way to destruction is through a wide gate. Have you made the choice as to which gate you will go through?
Narrow Gate and Difficult Way - Part 1
May 22, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:13–14
Today we learn about making a choice.... in fact, the biggest choice we’ll ever make. This is a multiple-choice decision, but there are only two choices. There is no in-between. Take the narrow gate to eternity with God, or take the wide gate to Hell. It’s really that simple.
The Golden Rule
May 21, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:12
The so-called “golden rule” is a model for all Christians to live by, and it’s very popular with other religions as well. But there’s a key difference in the way Jesus stated it, and the way the world recites it. What’s the difference? Does it really matter? Oh, it absolutely does!
Ask, Seek, Knock - Part 2
May 20, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:7–11
We’re currently going through the Sermon on the Mount, found in Matthew’s Gospel. We’re in chapter seven, exploring verses seven through eleven. In this portion of His sermon, Jesus is teaching about prayer. We humans have a way of getting the whole concept of prayer turned around. If we use prayer as a way of reciting a shopping list of worldly desires, God will not be pleased. By the same token, if we make our requests known to God, and then sit around waiting for a delivery van to pull up, we’ve missed the meaning again. So how can prayer be reduced to its purest, most powerful form? That’s what we’ll discover today.

Ask, Seek, Knock - Part 1
May 17, 2024 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 7:7–11
On today’s broadcast, Lloyd will begin a study on prayer, based on Matthew seven, verses seven through eleven. Here we find that prayer is not a suggestion, but a commandment. In these verses Christ explains why prayer is a necessity for the believer, and Lloyd will remind us that with the wonderful opportunity prayer brings us comes certain responsibilities.
