1) "Now, this simple truth illustrates following Jesus Christ. Things in life are moving so fast. When you're caught up in everything, the circumstances that creates this instability, you find yourself moving away from the center. You know what he does? He reminds us, come unto me. Oh, you, that laborer in heavy laden, get close to me. James said, if we'll draw an eye to him, he's going to draw an eye to us. He said, come to me. No matter how scary life gets, he is our perfect center. He's right there." [01:15:05]
2) "And a cross is to die on, that we nail our flesh, that we nail our ambitions, that we nail all of our selfishness to that cross. And we say, here I am, I'm giving everything. And the future of all of it results, ladies and gentlemen, in death. We die out even in our baptism. We die out to the old man, and we're resurrected in the newness of life. We're resurrected in God." [01:10:38]
3) "And when we follow Jesus, we discover that he alone, he alone is more than enough to direct us and to sustain us all the days of our life. Hallelujah." [01:12:09]
4) "That shame vanishes when we surrender all that we are unto all that Jesus is. I said shame vanishes when we surrender all that we are unto all that Jesus is. And we began to glorify him because that voice of shame will show up. It'll be right there, and it'll speak rejection. It'll tell you that Jesus has no value whatsoever, and he cannot value because of who you are and what you have done and what you have been involved in that he can't value you. And the voice of his grace will show up and speak in the other ear and say, he accepts you and he loves you." [01:05:13]
5) "God always reserves a position on his team for repentant followers. For those who have messed up, those who have made mistakes, those that have done things, he has a position on his team for every one of us. Anybody glad about that? I am. I am, I am. And Jesus charged Peter with shepherding new believers. He called them lambs, and then he said, my sheep, the young and the old, and new Christians, and his role involved, you know, helping believers by preaching the Word to them and ministering unto them." [01:09:50]
6) "He knows what he had done. He knows he had denied the Lord. He seen the fire, and immediately he thought, I remember standing by another fire when I said I didn't even know him. When I said I hadn't been with him, he remembered all of that. And Peter knew by his intuition that there was an unresolved problem, unresolved situations, and Jesus would not allow him to dismiss it. He doesn't let you just walk away and say, Well, this is the ending of this. No, he's going to continue to deal with your heart and to speak to you, because he wants that relationship with you today." [01:00:57]
7) "He forgives our sins. He erases our shame and our guilt. He erases it. He restores our fellowship. He charts our future and guides the steps of all of those who follow him. In essence, I'm trying to tell you what a Savior that we have today that loves us and cares for every one of us." [01:15:42]
8) "You know, have you known that look from Jesus? Have you ever done something? Have you ever made mistakes? Have you ever messed up? Have you ever denied him and had him look into your spirit, into your soul, and into your heart? That piercing look that he's trying to deal with us where we are, with what is going through in our life. Have you ever received that? I have." [56:26]
