WHEN WHAT JESUS ASKS IS

Matt. 19:23-26 Various occasion that we find that what God asks us is very difficult. Matt. 19:1-12; Regarding marriage and divorce (vs. 10). Matt. 19:16-26; What is asked of the Rich Young Ruler (vs ). Following the Words of Christ/God has its difficulties, but it IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE!!!

We Must Be Sure that Jesus’ words and the Bible is Truly from God! “If I am going to commit to that, I have to have extreme confidence that it is God’s word.” Hopefully these classes will help with some of that.

Make up your mind now! Count the Cost (Luke 14:25-33) Daniel 1:8 Ex. Marriage

Hunger and thirst for Righteousness Over Hunger for what feels right Matt. 5:6 Matt. 6:33 Ex. Woman who went to churches You can always find a church/religion/interpretation that will tell you it’s ok… Are you looking to justify your conscience or are you looking to be right with God? 2 Tim. 4:3-4

Loving God and his word more than Relationships Matt. 10 Ex. An engaged couple It will most likely happen that a family member or close friend, with teach or practice error/immorality.

There is no Other Viable Option: John 6:66-69 TO WHOM SHALL WE GO??? If we reject Christ’s words of truth, the only other option is the lies of Satan. If I can keep my relationships, but I will lose relationship with Christ If I can enjoy comfort and sinful pleasure now, I will not enjoy eternal pleasure in heaven later.

Most Every Good thing in life is HARD Good shape/health Good grades in school Advancement in your career Good relationships Having children Most every worthwhile thing in life has its difficulties and struggles!!!

It is Always Worth It!!! Matt. 5:11-12 “Your reward in Heaven is great” Matt. 10: discipleship; reward Matt. 10:21-22 Rev. 2:10; “a crown of life”

PUTTING THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE: Rev. 2:10 Heb. 12:4 Acts 14:22

MAN UP!!! 1 Cor. 16:3; Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Joshua 1:9; Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go Eph. 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
