Come to Me: It's Simple. We Make It Hard. | Week 2 | Save the Cowboy

Jesus says, "Come to me." And we say, "But I can't..." Jesus' whole invitation is three words, no qualifications, no fine print. So why do we keep making it hard? Week 2 of Come to Me rides through the parable of the Great Big BBQ in Luke 14, where every empty chair at the supper had a good-sounding excuse behind it: I bought some land, I bought five teams of oxen, I just got married. Kevin picks up the jet-ski cliffhanger from last week and lays out the excuses we still send back to God today. In this message: The instruction manual nobody reads, and what Jesus' instruction manual requires before you come to Him (nothing) Why we won't come to Jesus: I'm covered up, I've got to work, there's something more important You're not covered up. You're drowning. A good excuse is still a no, and once the supper starts, you're either in or you're out Scripture: Luke 14:15-24, Matthew 11:28, Matthew 14:30-31, Romans 8:32, Matthew 6:33 Grab this week's free 5-day Bible study at savethecowboy.org.
