The Heart of the Universe

Father, Son and Holy Spirit  What relationships are important to you?  People of every culture long for relationships  God is love: a relationship of holy and harmonious love between Father, Son and Spirit  The universe holds together in this love

 Because God is love, he created humans in his image in order to love them  Relationship with God gave them life  God honored them by being in a face-to-face relationship with them  The first humans honored God, each other, themselves and the earth, living in perfect harmony  They were clothed with the honor or glory of God

 When the humans disobeyed and dishonored God, breaking relationship. harmony was lost  When the relationship with God was broken, honor was also lost, and they felt shame and guilt  Since then, humans keep dishonoring and breaking relationship with God and one another: sin  Sin is the heart attitude that puts self first and dishonors God and others

 Since humans were in a state of separation and death, they couldn’t restore their relationship with God on their own – only God could  God the Son, Jesus, became human to reunite his brothers and sisters with God the Father.  When he died on the cross, Jesus took on shame and guilt and honored the Father through obedience

 Jesus didn’t remain dead! The Father honored his obedience by bringing him back to life – resurrection  The crown represents the honor Jesus received in the resurrection  When we follow Jesus, his obedience is credited to us and our sin is forgiven. Jesus offers life, honor, and forgiveness to everyone who will follow him as Lord  What questions do you have?

 Jesus’ followers are a worldwide family connected to God and one another working to bring harmony to broken relationships  Jesus offers two different invitations: ◦ Come and see ◦ come and follow

 Become a sincere seeker:  Learn to know Jesus through: Reading the Bible and praying Doing what Jesus teaches Spending time with his people  Join Jesus and his family in bringing harmony to a broken world  John 1:12: “Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God” (NIV)  “Receiving” means welcoming Jesus into your life as Lord  “Believing” means trusting in him deeply

Come and SeeCome and Follow  Jesus is making these two invitations now  Are you ready to say yes to one of them or do you need some more time?
