Below are some simple instructions on how to use this template:
1. You can change the text in the graphical screen above or in the outline area to the left. 2. There is one default background that is indicated by “ ” .This slide acts as a space or a blank screen, use to clear or blank the screen. If you have a large graphic such as a map you could also use this screen. If you insert a new slide you will get this default background.
3. The first five slides have the other backgrounds for the set. To use more than one of these background types in your presentation highlight the one you wish to use and choose copy from the edit menu. Paste this slide where you want it to appear in your presentation, then change the text on this new slide. By copy/pasting the slide in this manor you will keep the background, text formatting and the customized animation from that slide. By using the copy/paste method you find it saves you time and keeps a consistent look through out your presentation.
4.There are a few additional notes written in the slide text wording that may be helpful.
Note: We are working on a website that in the future will provide help topics on using sermon outlines in PowerPoint as well as provide sermon templates similar to this one. Check for more information.

5. Being born without sin was not the qualifying factor for being the perfect sacrifice. It just got Him started.

6. Like Adam our Lord was created perfect and then tempted by Satan, Mat 4:1-11; Mark 1:12-13; Luke 4:1-13, yet with His free will volition He chose not to sin.

7. That qualified Him for the Cross. He was impeccable.

8. Impeccability recognizes the fact that during the entire course of our Lord's life, while in hypostatic union, He did not sin though He was tempted in His humanity.

9. The first Adam was temptable and peccable
The first Adam was temptable and peccable. He was capable of sinning through the use of his own volition.

11. In Deity our Lord is NON POSSE PECCARE, not able to sin.

12. In Deity our Lord is NON POSSE PECCARE, not able to sin

14. Isa 42:1, “Behold, My Servant, whom I uphold; My chosen one in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations.”

15. The Doctrine of KENOSIS, Phil 2:5-8, tells us that Jesus Christ did not solve His own problems via His personal deity He relied on GPS to remain impeccable.

19. 2 Cor 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.” See also Isa 53:5-6.
