“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
Sermon on the Mount - Does the Golden Rule Really Work? - Matthew 7:1-12
“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you.” We have all heard the Golden Rule, but it’s just a passive phrase or good idea to many people. However, Jesus teaches that the Golden Rule is necessary for believers; it grows our Christian character and gives God glory.

“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. “Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces. “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets."
Sermon on the Mount - You Don't Have to Worry - Matthew 6:19-34

Sermon on the Mount - Turn Your Weapons into Tools - Matthew 5:33-42
Wherever there is life, there is power. Humans can have physical, intellectual, emotional, or spiritual power. We can wield this power in a constructive way, building up those around us, or we can use it to destroy.
Pastor Wiersbe explains how words can change a life, what it means to turn the other cheek, and how to use power as a tool to build.

“Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.’ But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne; or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one. “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you."

Great Women of Bible History - Esther - Esther 4
God used Esther to bless and help the Jewish nation. God had a plan and a purpose for every person in the story, even those who were working against Him.
Dr. Wiersbe connects the story of Esther to our own lives. We are all important to God, and we all have a purpose. God will always accomplish His purposes, and ultimately, He will triumph over evil.

Jezebel left a unique legacy in Bible history and causes us to reflect on what we are leaving behind in our lives.
Great Women of Bible History - Hannah - 1 Samuel 1 & 2
The name Hannah means “grace.” In this message, Dr. Wiersbe examines the grace God gave Hannah as she faced great sorrow in her life and had to depend on the grace of God.
As with Hannah, God gives us the same grace in our lives.
Great Women of Bible History - Ruth - Ruth 1-4
Ruth is a love story about the love of God. Ruth worked, waited, and sought after Boaz to redeem her. Likewise, Jesus is willing and able to save us.
Great Women of Bible History - Rehab - Joshua 2 & 6
Rahab, the harlot, is mentioned three times in the New Testament. She is in the genealogy of Jesus and is listed with the men of faith. Rahab is a tremendous illustration of saving faith and teaches us four lessons about this saving faith.
Great Women of Bible History - Miriam - Exodus 2, 12 & 15
Every time we see Miriam in the Bible, she speaks or sings. Sometimes, her speech is for good, but when she lets sin creep into her heart, Miriam takes her eyes off God and loses her song.
Pastor Wiersbe shows us what we can learn from this singing prophetess.
Great Women of Bible History - Rebekah - Genesis 24
What’s worse than watching someone deteriorate physically? Pastor Wiersbe suggests that it’s watching a person deteriorate spiritually while pulling others down with them.
When we are first introduced to Rebekah in Genesis 24, she is kind, pure, courteous, and spiritual. But by the end of her life, she was a manipulating, scheming, lying, failure. As we study her life, let us be mindful that we are just as susceptible to this deterioration.
Great Women of Bible History - Lot's Wife - Luke 17 and Genesis 19
Lot’s wife was worldly. Fixated on the things of the world, she couldn’t leave those items behind to follow God.
Her life is a warning for believers. She hoped in the world, but we must place our hope in Jesus. We must not take our eyes off Him.
Great Women of Bible History - Sarah - Genesis 17 & 18
Sarah learned that it doesn’t pay to laugh at God—He always knows what He’s doing. Dr. Wiersbe uses Sarah’s laughter to teach us about our faith and joy. If we rely on the promises of God, we can have faith to laugh.

Knowledge is one of the most valued resources in the world today. But the world has divorced knowledge from its source, which is God.

This message was preached when Dr. Wiersbe was the Sr. Pastor of the Moody Church in Chicago, IL.
John 17 - The Greatest Work Ever Finished

This message was preached when Dr. Wiersbe was the Sr. Pastor of the Moody Church in Chicago, IL.
John 17 - The Greatest Gift Ever Given
Eternal life is the greatest gift ever offered to man. Every single person ever born is going to live forever, even after their time on Earth is over. The question is where will they end up.

Christ in the Old Testament - The Statue of Liberty (Exodus 12:1-15)
In the United States, we experience liberty today because someone died. As Christians, we also experience freedom from death because Jesus died for us. At Passover, the Israelites were protected from death by the blood of a lamb. Christians are protected by the blood of Jesus.
Spiritually, we were born into death, bondage, and decay. But the blood of the Lamb changes everything.
Is Jesus Christ a lamb, the lamb, or your lamb?
This message was preached on July 6, 1975 when Dr. Wiersbe was the Senior Pastor of The Moody Church in Chicago, IL.
Christ in the Old Testament - A Captain Courageous (Hebrews 2:8-10)
Joshua, leading the Israelites from the wilderness into Canaan, foreshadows Jesus and the salvation He offers to the world. Joshua conquered his enemies and claimed his inheritance for Israel. Like him, we, through Christ, can conquer the enemy of death and claim our riches that God has provided for those who believe in Jesus.
This message was preached on June 29, 1975 when Dr. Wiersbe was the Senior Pastor of The Moody Church in Chicago, IL.
Christ in the Old Testament - A Miracle Every Morning (Exodus 16:1-21 and John 6:27-35)
God provides for our every need. Like the Israelites in the desert, God sent us manna in the form of Christ to satisfy our hunger. But this Bread of Life satisfies more than an earthly desire—it fills our spiritual need. Nothing else can satisfy our spiritual hunger.
This message was preached on June 22, 1975 when Dr. Wiersbe was the Senior Pastor of The Moody Church in Chicago, IL.
Christ in the Old Testament - Do You Need a Place to Hide? (Joshua 20 and Hebrews 6:18)
What is the difference between the unsaved and Christians? Christians realize the danger they’re in and run to God for refuge. In the Old Testament, cities of refuge were designated for people to flee to. Today, Christians have only to flee to Jesus as their city of refuge—a place of safety where God gives us righteousness, a shoulder to bear our burden, fellowship, blessing, and a new citizenship.
This message was preached on June 15, 1975 when Dr. Wiersbe was the Senior Pastor at The Moody Church in Chicago, IL.
Christ in the Old Testament - Saved by a Rock (Exodus 17:1-7 and John 7:37-39)
Everyone thirsts for God. After all, He made us to thirst for Him. But people try to satisfy that thirst with things, thrills, and achievements. Only Jesus Christ can fully satisfy us; He is the Living Water.
This message was preached on June 8, 1975, when Dr. Wiersbe was the Senior Pastor at The Moody Church in Chicago, IL.
