Immanuel Southern Baptist Church

Here are some “sound bites” from yesterday morning’s sermon, “Christmas Trees” based on Luke 23:33-43:

• One thief ridiculed Jesus and appeared to only want out of the situation.
• Jesus did not respond to him.
• The other thief realized his situation was hopeless and “reached out” to Jesus in faith.
• Jesus responded to Him and gave him salvation.
• Many people only want something out of God or out of a church, but aren’t willing to change their lives.
• While we put our Christmas gifts UNDER the tree, God put His Gift to mankind ON the tree, that is, the cross.
