#HeartOfGod
“In Jesus, we see God with us. We see what it looks like for God who will with us. We see the heart of the God for us. Some people say, He went into the temple, cast out the money changers. Alright? Reviewed the paraxes and subscribes. He's consistent with the character of God. In the life of Jesus, we see the character of God fully revealed. God with us.”
45s
#PeaceWithGod
“We partake of the elements or the sacrament, which is the bread and the wine representing the body and the blood of Jesus Christ, consuming them outwardly, demonstrating that by faith we must trace in Christ for what he has done for us in saving us. And then lastly is a reminder that we are not under the covenant of works. In other words, we are not being held accountable for our obedience obedience to the law for our salvation. Instead, we're trusting that Christ fulfilled the law on our behalf so that we may have peace with god.”
41s
#AgapeLove
“When we think of love, this is the word agape, and no doubt you've heard that over the years. It's the purest form of love, the selfless kind of love that seeks the best for others, the benevolence of others, the goodwill of others, doing what's best, not necessarily for what the person wants, but what the person needs. That's true love. This is where we often, as Christians, get in trouble because we want to do what's right because that's what's loving even though it may mean the other person may not agree.”
55s
#MakeEveryDayCount
“This is the secret beauty of a funeral, by the way, that it gives us wisdom and perspective by reminding us that each passing day brings us one day closer to the end no matter what your age. And here, Solomon isn't saying that festivals and laughter are a bad thing. He's actually encouraged them earlier in this book. But in comparison, funerals and grief have more to teach us about the value of our days and the value of the way that we spend our time. It forces us to ask, are we spending our days wisely? What are you doing with the time you have left?”
50s
#ShareTheGospel
“And, look, god told me to number my days. Psalms ninety one twelve, and I numbered them. Today, I'm thirty two thousand a hundred and ninety four days old. That sounds a lot better than 85, doesn't it? But, you know, life is really brief. is short, but eternity never ends. You're gonna spend heaven and hell and all your friends and neighbors and loved ones if we don't get after it and lead them to Jesus. We need to get on at at third base of service of witnessing about the lord Jesus Christ.”
40s
#MadeInHisImage
“And then he proceeded to kneel down in the dust of the ground and then form him with his own hands. That's something special there. Right? There's a difference about that relationship. God did not do that with with animals. He did not do that with the giraffe. Did not do with the zebra. He did not do that with the elephant. He did that with humanity. There is something special about the way God created human beings. And we were told that we were created in God's image with the with the ability to reflect God. And so from the very beginning, there was that special relationship that we had with our creator.”
35s
#SavedByGrace
“But Jesus paid for our sins on the cross to make us holy, to grant us his righteousness, and therefore, we are able to stand in god's presence by faith through the body and the blood of Jesus Christ. And so as we eat the bread and drink the wine, we are acknowledging that we require Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection for our salvation. We cannot save ourselves.”
33s
#GodWithUs
“In John, God comes and dwell among us in one way. And in the flesh, in the person among Jesus. So in other words, when we look at Jesus, we see God with us. That was his name. Emmanuel, God with us. Matthew chapter one tells us that. Alright? We see God with us. The the clearest picture we have of a God is in the person of Jesus Christ.”
40s
#JesusSacrifice
“Now how is eating a piece of bread and drinking wine or grape juice proclaiming the gospel? Because we are acknowledging that our sin requires sacrifice, and it is a sacrifice that we are incapable performing. It takes something outside ourselves, someone outside ourselves who was not tainted with sin give their life for us on our behalf to save us from our sin.”
39s
#EternalSecurity
“And so I think what Jesus is saying here is that not only do I give you eternal life and nothing will remove you from my eternal grip, my father who is even greater also has a grip around you. I don't know how much more secure we can get in the lord to hear these truths. So you can't lose your salvation and listen to this, you are as safe now eternally as a believer as you will ever be even in eternity. I mean, praise the lord.”
