The Tragedy of Making Excuses (Part 3)

100 Days of Preaching the Gospel #8

TEXT: Luke 14:16-18: “A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready. And they all with one consent began to make excuse.”

Today, we are going to look at three more excuses that people give as to why they cannot come to Christ and the Biblical answers to each of these excuses.

I. One excuse that some people give is “My heart is too hard to come to Christ. I am too much of a sinner for Christ to accept me.”

II. Another excuse that people use to reject Christ is saying they don’t like church meetings or church people.

III. Thirdly, and finally, today, there are those people who say they cannot trust themselves to be saved.
