THE GOSPEL Step 1 Performance? Work? Friends? Spouse? Boyfriend? BRIDGE QUESTIONS Where do you find your meaning and value to feel good about yourself? Performance? Work? Spouse? Friends? Boyfriend? Good Looks? Past? Money? Ministry? Other People’s Opinions? Kids? What does that mean to you? Why does that bother you?

SAMPLE BRIDGE QUESTIONS THE GOSPEL Step 1 SAMPLE BRIDGE QUESTIONS What does that mean to you? Why does that bother you? What is most important in your life? OR Is _________ the most important thing in your life? Where do you find your meaning or significance? OR Is __________ where you find your meaning? Are there risks in finding your meaning in ______________? How does your faith relate to the circumstance you are going through….or does it? If _______ was not the center of your life, do you think it would help you or hurt more?

Important Note: Always Remember to ask permission… THE GOSPEL Step 1 FINAL BRIDGE QUESTION Would you mind if I shared something that helped me when I was trying to find my meaning and purpose? Important Note: Always Remember to ask permission…

THE GOSPEL Step 2 But why do we try to find our worth outside ourselves? Because we all Fall Short! We know we are born messed up so we try finding a ways to feel good about ourselves. EXAMPLE: Did anyone teach you how to lie or talk back to your parents? Me neither!  Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

THE GOSPEL Step 3 Of course…a 10! On a Scale from 1-10…How good is God? Of course…a 10! Mark 10:18 “No one is good except God alone.”

God loves you and wants to give you His goodness! But… THE GOSPEL Step 4 God knew the greatest need of humanity was to find meaning, value, and worth in their life and He decided to solve this problem! IMAGINE IF…You had God’s goodness! Would you need to keep trying to find your value in other people or in your career etc. ? God loves you and wants to give you His goodness! But… 1 John 3:1 See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are.

That would make God a crazy God! THE GOSPEL Step 5 THE PROBLEM… Although God Loves You...You don’t deserve His Love! Why? Because as we decided earlier you are born trying to find our goodness. God is LOVING and JUST What would you think of God if he let the Boston bomber out of jail because he loved him? That would make God a crazy God!

What if the country that wanted Boston bomber released THE GOSPEL Step 6 What if the country that wanted Boston bomber released 1. Paid off the national debt or 2. Released a US citizen from their country or 3. Exchanged someone for the bomber to be punished? Would that be more just? Although humanity deserves to be punished for our sin, God decided justice would be served if He took the punishment instead of us by coming to earth (in the form of a man named Jesus) and allowing Himself to be killed instead of us! 2 Corinthians 5:21: He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

THE GOSPEL Step 7 We have 3 parts… body Now God can give us His goodness because it is the LOVING and JUST thing to do…But how do we get His goodness! mind spirit God is all THREE God Holy Spirit Jesus 1 Thessalonians 5:23: Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul (mind) and body be preserved complete.

Then what does that make you? Holy Spirit? God Holy Spirit Jesus Romans 8:16: The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God. Rom. 8:9b “If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.”

How Does the Holy Spirit get in me? How do you obtain the GIFT? THE GOSPEL Step 9 How Does the Holy Spirit get in me? body mind It is a GIFT spirit How do you obtain the GIFT? Holy Spirit? God Holy Spirit Jesus Romans 5:17: …those who Receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness (God’s goodness) will reign in life though the One, Jesus Christ

THE GOSPEL Step 10 Read the following verse aloud… Romans 3:21: “But now apart from the Law (performance or other’s opinions) the righteousness (goodness) of God has been manifested Do you have to perform or have other people’s good opinion To get God’s righteousness (goodness)?

THE GOSPEL Step 11 Read the following verse aloud… Romans 3:22: Even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe. How do you get the righteousness of God? Who gets the righteousness of God?

Would you like to let God know you believe and have accepted His gift? THE GOSPEL Step 12 body Have you ever accepted the gift of God’s righteousness? mind spirit Would you like to accept the gift of God’s righteousness? Holy Spirit GIFT God Holy Spirit Jesus Would you like to let God know you believe and have accepted His gift?
