Maybe the reason the Church is so weak is that we want the comfort of the gospel without the crucifixion of the self. Unless a kernel of wheat dies…

“Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.”
2 Corinthians 1:21-22 NIV https://t.co/8GWJe8mwFm

In Paul’s day, the enemy of the gospel was Judaizers who insisted that Christians obey the Law to be justified. Today it is consumers who insist that Christians have zero moral code at all.

You have two jobs:
1) Love God with everything you’ve got and 2) Love everyone you meet the way you love you.

Abide in Jesus. Remain in Him, rooted and anchored in His powerful love and limitless power. This is mental health 101 for me.

If you do not stand firm in faith, you will not stand at all. (Isaiah 7:9)

At the cross, God got down on one knee and proposed to us. How crazy do we have to be to decline such a proposal?

Hey Pastor - If your mission has been to build@large weekend gatherings, you’re probably terrified. But if your mission is Kingdom advancement, this is the greatest opportunity in our lifetime.

“The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse...he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him”

There are always two ways to tell yourself the story about a defining event or relationship. Tell the good one. It includes personal responsibility, grace for others, and hope for the future.
