IF God loves me, Part 2

God loves you You are forgiven… completely!

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you

2 Reponses to Freedom…

Whatever I want…

Whatever he wants…

God Loves Me IF…

Why…?

Jesus paid it all

Sanctify= Hagiazo: Made pure, holy separated from sin

…we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God…

For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified - Hebrews 10:10-14

As we follow Jesus We are beginning to experience What we already are in Christ: Sanctified

Jesus died once For all sin God isn't stealing freedom- He's giving it!

I will run in the path of your Commands for you have Set my heart free - Psalm 119:32

And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh

God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses

by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross - Col. 2:13-14

You are free! - No OT Law - No debts to pay

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you

You are free…!

Let me give you Something for that…

…if you accept circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you

I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law.

You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace

…For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love - Gal. 5:2-6

Sabbath? OT Rules, Dietary Rules Religious Rules

You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace

Hey Jesus- it's not enough! Here's my watch!

Grace= Freedom Completely Forgiven Slate Wiped Clean

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you

Jesus did it all I can't pay it back 2 Responses:

Walked the Aisle… I can do what I want!

Received Christ So I'm set free to Serve him well

Why does it matter?

What: - They See - I Experience Who: - I know

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you

What they see: Your Faith becomes Real To your world

Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God - 1 Peter 2:12

Honorable= Valuable, Virtuous, Morally Good

I don't like church Because it's full of…?

…as it is written, “The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you” - Romans 2:24 God forbid!

Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time

Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person - Col. 4:5-6

What people see in a believer Is what they perceive Of our faith

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you: Influence

What they see What I experience…

…do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption - Eph. 4:30 Joy, Peace, Contentment Power, Changed Life

"For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace" - Romans 8:6

"The only Christian who isn't a satisfied customer is the one who doesn't shop God's store exclusively"

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you: Abundant Life

What they see What I experience Who I know…

My good friend… Al Denson

Knowing of… vs. Knowing…

You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder! You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder!

Do you want to be shown, you fool, that faith apart from works is useless? - James 2:19-20

If it doesn't change my life It's not real

“What do you think? A man had two sons. And he went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work in the vineyard today.’

And he answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he changed his mind and went.

And he went to the other son and said the same. And he answered, ‘I go, sir,’ but did not go.

Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said, “The first.”

Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes go into the kingdom of God before you.

For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him.

And even when you saw it, you did not afterward change your minds and believe him - Matthew 21:28-32

Belief= action, change of lifestyle …that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds in keeping with their repentance - Acts 26:20

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you: Redemption and Restoration

Creation Fall Redemption Restoration

Only if freedom set me Free to live for Jesus Is it the freedom of Christ Because that's where Life is found

Don't let freedom cheat you Out of the very thing Christ died to give you

For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters

and hewed out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can hold no water - Jeremiah 2:13

Am I still trying to pay For what Christ gave me?

Am I still insisting others pay For what Christ Died to give them?

What does my world see?

What am I experiencing?

Do I need to know Jesus?

"Jesus, set me free To live for something Greater than me…"

Religion creates rules To deal with the misuse Of freedom

Rules don't change hearts We pray for and preach Transformation
