#JesusTheStrongerMan
“So Jesus is the stronger man. The question is not simply whether Jesus is misunderstood by us, it's whether we recognize him for who he truly is. Some think he's lost his mind. Some people wrongly say he's a great moral teacher. Others also wrongly call his work the work of the devil. But Jesus reveals himself to be the stronger man. The only man who can bind up the strong man and rescue the captives and set us free and bring us into his family.”
51s
“``And here's the truth, folks. Peter's drawing closer to the crux of the matter here. He's talking to those of the circumcision, those who've held it out. If god gave them the same gift and we have the same gift to give to everybody else, why are we holding it back? God had given the same gift of salvation to all and regardless of their heritage, their culture, their looks, their language. We, like Peter, cannot stand in god's way based on any personal discomfort or preference or prejudice. We cannot harbor any notion of clean or unclean.”
37s
#SalvationByGrace
“And remember that salvation is not something we could earn. When we see the image of the strong man and then the stronger man that has to come in and bind up the strong man and and plunder his goods, and that is all people that were under power. How could we ever think that we could rescue ourselves by just doing good deeds? It makes it look foolish now when we see picture that Jesus is showing us of what he has come to do. Can't rescue ourselves. We need someone stronger than the enemy to rescue us, and that's Jesus.”
34s
#AuthorityOfJesus
“Never be so committed to what you want to believe that you refuse to accept what God has revealed. So we see Jesus says it's illogical that Satan would be casting out Satan. So if Jesus isn't working for Satan, yet he's casting out Satan in his minions, that means someone stronger than Satan has arrived. And that's where we get verses 27 to 30, where Jesus alone has the authority to rescue rescue us from the dominion of Satan and sin.”
44s
#CalledNotCrowded
“Jesus is building his church, calling his people out of the crowd. He's not in the business of making fans, but faithful followers. Not crowds, but called ones. So which one are you? Are you in the crowd or have you been called? asking if you attend church because these people came to see Jesus. Not asking if you have all the Christian lingo down because these people heard him preach. Not even asking if you've been blessed because guess what these people were healed too. But do you know yourself to have been called out of the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of his beloved son to be with Jesus?”
37s
#JesusIsTheOnlyWay
“Praise Jesus. If you're here today and you're not a Christian, oh, friend, please look at this. Do you see in God's word that we could never make it on our own? There's never an amount of sacrifices that would suffice for our sin debt to be paid off. There is no temple. There is no priest. There is no sacrifice you could ever go to make you right with God. Jesus is the only way. And he is there with arms open wide. In fact, they were nailed open for you. You don't need to make a pilgrimage to the Middle East. He comes to you now.”
40s
#JesusCameToSave
“That is what he's looking for. Faithful followers who look to Jesus and praise him because of who he is, not necessarily because of what he's done. Well, the question isn't, be clear, whether you come to Jesus with the need. These people came to Jesus with needs, and he met their needs. He blessed them. He didn't get on the boat to get away from them. He got on the boat so he could better minister to them. So the the thing isn't don't go to Jesus with your needs. Absolutely go to Jesus with your needs. But know that that's not the reason why he came, just for our circumstances. He came to save you.”
48s
“Quite frankly, folks, we have to realize that those people is us. We are those people to somebody else. Who here thinks Ford is the best truck? Woah. I got one over here. God love you. You're wrong. Who thinks Chevy is the best truck? Okay. I got one back here, one here. Who thinks the best truck is the one that's paid for? There we go. That's the right answer. But even on those little things, we find ways to separate ourselves, and it's those people. But again, to us, we're those people to somebody else.”
56s
“They started with a hard heart. They started with prejudice against those people. But we also see that the Holy Spirit was there, and he changed their heart and they acknowledged that that repentance for life was available to everyone. My challenge to you folks is that if there is somewhere, some group of people, some individual person, something in your life that you're holding back the gospel message, don't. Realize that as Christians, as disciples, as believers, we cannot gatekeep the message of God.”
37s
“And then god's going to tell him something but I want you to think for a minute. Are there old ways in your life that you're hanging on to that's preventing you from discipling, from sharing the message, from being discipled? Saying that I can't do that because of X. I can't do that because my mom taught me this way. I can't do it because I grew up in a church that didn't have instruments. I can't do it because of X.”
