Abundant Life The meaning of life in today’s world

In the Beginning… Genesis 1:1 Genesis 2:7 Genesis 2:15 Genesis 1:26-28 “be fruitful and multiply, replenish the earth and subdue it”

Can you imagine a perfect world? God created Adam and Eve and put them in a perfect garden to care for all of the living things. Genesis 2:17 “tree of knowledge of good and evil”

Sin Enters the World Genesis 3:1 Genesis 3:14-19 Romans 8:22 “the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain”

The world is in need of a Savior The rest of the Old Testament describes how God prepared a people to be His people and how a remnant survived up to the time of Jesus’ birth.

The Patriarchs & The Hebrews Genesis 6 Noah and the flood Abraham (Ch. 12) Isaac (Ch. 26) Jacob (Ch. 31) Exodus 1 The Hebrew nation Nehemiah 1:3 “the remnant” Daniel 2:38-45 an everlasting kingdom

Unto you is born a Savior The kingdoms in Daniel are the backdrop for the bringing into existence of the greatest kingdom ever. That was the reality of life for those who would be God’s people – looking forward to the coming of Jesus.

The New Testament Matthew 1:17, 21 Matthew 3:1-3 John 10:10 Luke 19:10 Romans 5:8 Philippians 2:8 2 Peter 3:9

What is the meaning of Life? For you to be saved! For you to be a child of God For you to live for Jesus For you to go to Heaven John 14:1-4 For you to tell others about Jesus Matthew 9:36-38

The Plan of Salvation Hear the Word (Rm. 10:17) Believe in Jesus (Jn. 1:12) Repent of Sins (II Cor. 7:9-10) Confess Faith in Christ (Mt. 10:32) Be Baptized in Water (Rm. 6:3-4) Continue in God’s Grace (Ac. 13:43) If you err as a Christian: Repent & Pray God for Forgiveness (Ac. 8:22)
