Soul Sacred Possession

GOD’S QUESTION Mark 8:36, 37 Mark 8:36, 37 “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” “SOUL” PHYSICAL LIFE What was lost for the gospel is a gain (8:34, 35)!

The Soul Given to man when created “in the image of God” (Gen. 1:26, 27; Zech. 12:1) Three created substances ( ברא, bara’ 01254) 1.Material (Gen. 1:1) 2.Animal life (Gen. 1:21) 3.A likeness of God, spirit (Gen. 1:26; Jn. 4:24)

The Soul The soul is viewed by Jesus as more valuable than the whole world o Reasons: Cannot bring any wealth with you when you die (Ps. 49:6-20; 1 Tim. 6:7) The unredeemed soul gains only tribulation and anguish for eternity (Ezek. 18:4; Rom. 2:5-11; 2 Thess. 1:8, 9)

Many people sell out for far less than the world o Eve through Satan’s temptation for knowledge (Gen. 3:1ff) o Adam through Eve’s temptation (Gen. 3:6) o Esau for stew (Gen. 25:30-33) o David for pleasure (2 Sam. 11) o Ananias and Sapphira for an appearance (Acts 5:1-10) o Judas for silver (Matt. 26:14-16) o Peter for acceptance (Matt. 26:69-74; Gal. 2:11-14) Will I sell out? Have I sold out? Many people sell out for far less than the world o Eve through Satan’s temptation for knowledge (Gen. 3:1ff) o Adam through Eve’s temptation (Gen. 3:6) o Esau for stew (Gen. 25:30-33) o David for pleasure (2 Sam. 11) o Ananias and Sapphira for an appearance (Acts 5:1-10) o Judas for silver (Matt. 26:14-16) o Peter for acceptance (Matt. 26:69-74; Gal. 2:11-14) Will I sell out? Have I sold out?

Value Your Soul And The Great Salvation! “Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away. For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just reward, how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him” (Heb. 2:1-3)

The Great Salvation! Because of the greatest gift given Because of the greatest penalty to pay Because of the greatest possession to save

The Great Salvation! Because of the greatest gift given Because of the greatest penalty to pay Because of the greatest possession to save PURIFY YOUR SOUL BY OBEYING THE TRUTH “There is also an antitype which now saves us— baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him” (1 Pet. 3:21, 22)

Be Baptized Into The True Body of Christ! 12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. 13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. (1 Cor. 12:12, 13)
