56s
“But you show up with a ticket, a valid ticket, an authentic ticket and they'll let you in. And you can go inside and you will see with your own eyes what is happening. You will see the sights and you will hear the sounds. And you will be part of it. What Jesus is saying is your heart is either the valid ticket or the invalid ticket to knowing him. Seeing him. Hearing him. Beholding his glory. Being part of what he's doing. Being around him. The ticket in is a sincere heart.”
28s
“Don't be shocked. Let's meter your expectations. Right? Let's temper them. Let's find them in the right place in the Lord. Right? Trusting him knowing that, you know what? One day pastor's gonna say something that's gonna rub me raw and and I'm just gonna you know what? It happens. That should be my response. It happens. He's human. He he may have a bad day. Maybe I was a a jerk first. I don't know.”
39s
“Brothers and sisters, let the Lord Jesus Christ through his text this morning remind us that when we come to the word of God, when we come to church, when we sit through these services, when we sit through LifeGroup, when we sit through weekday bible studies, we are not coming to gather knowledge. We're coming to find Jesus and to know Jesus and to fall in love with Jesus. It is not possible to fall in love with Jesus and to come to know him truly apart from the word of God.”
45s
“Please do not be found among those who love the bible but don't actually love Jesus. And when you're looking for spiritual leaders to follow, do not be mesmerized by people who have tons of knowledge about the bible. You're looking for people who have deep personal intimacy with Christ. That know him, that know him deeply, that know the sound of his voice, and that radically obey him no matter what he asks them to do. Because obedience and sacrifice is the evidence of true love.”
40s
“And here's the son of God looking at them in verse 42 and he says, let me tell you why you don't know who I am when I'm standing right in front of you despite the fact that you've devoted your entire life to studying the bible and leading the temple. You don't know me because you don't love God. In other words, Jesus says to them, whenever you come to the scriptures to study the scriptures, whenever you come to temple, your motive, your motive is not that you want to fall head over heels in love with God.”
27s
“So he says, hey, well, offenses are gonna come, but don't be offended. And and here's there's this is the offended person as well because offend means to go out and sin. So there's an offender that comes in and influences your life for the devil and for carnality. The offended are the ones going out and sinning. So both have to deal with themselves. And here's the dealing. Take it seriously. Right?”
24s
“And now, mark them which cause division among you and keep them separate. Right? But so so you gotta grow grow up in that. I'm not trying to be harsh, but don't be great peace have they which love thy law, nothing shall offend them. And you don't have to turn for if you ever turn from God and say I'm done with God and you walk away, you have nobody to blame but you.”
23s
“And if you come to me and tell me all the woes of all the people that hurt you, I'm a look and say, man, I am so sorry that these events have occurred in your life. And I am terribly sorry that Christians have sully god's name with their behavior towards you. But that has nothing to do with you walking away from God. I'm gonna tell you the truth.”
23s
“"Let the world see Jesus in you. Identify with Him. In every way. Everywhere. That will put you ten steps ahead of every other Christian. If you can just realize your identity in Christ. Not as a sinner that you sometimes are. But as a saint that God has cleansed, washed, and died for. I want to encourage you to do that this evening."”
24s
“"Embrace your identity as a Christian. You're a servant, a child of the King of Kings. Walk in that. Walk in that. Every day. You might need to do this every day, multiple times a day. Go into the bathroom. Look in the mirror. I'm not trying to be a word of faith here or anything like that weird. But I'm trying to say, go in the mirror and look at that person and say, because when you look at that person right now, you say, wretch."”
