A powerful thought from our Bible study tonight…
PAUL DECLARED THAT HE WOULD DO ANYTHING TO REACH THE LOST AND HE WOULD DO NOTHING TO HURT THE SAVED.

The actions of a Christian should always be filtered through…
Does is glorify God &
will it edify the believers.

It is a sin to do something to someone that demands their forgiveness….
it is also a sin to not issue to forgiveness to anyone who asks for it.

“Your Bible is not exhaustive, it does not tell you everything about everything, but it is comprehensive. It gives us a lens through which to look at everything.”

Alistair Begg’s framework for preparing sermons:

1. Think yourself empty.
2. Read yourself full.
3. Write yourself clear.
4. Pray yourself hot.
5. Be yourself.
6. Forget yourself.

Just a reminder…
You are not defined by what someone did TO you, but you are defined by what Jesus did FOR you!

Anticipate for God to work…
Anticipate that it may not look like you expect…
Anticipate that it will turn out good even if you don’t understand it!

The miracle of the gospel is not that it changes your eternal destination but it is also that it is consistently and patiently changing you into the likeness of Jesus Christ.

[Steve Taylor @pastorsftaylor]

Pastor friends….
It is not your responsibility to make your church grow….take the pressure off of yourself! It is your responsibility to be faithful, obedient and passionate. God will “give the increase”!

[Steve Taylor @pastorsftaylor]

So often, for the Christian, the door of forgiveness must be held open by the one who has been offended and it swings on the hinges of mercy and patience.

[Steve Taylor @pastorsftaylor]

Christians can experience joy in the harshest circumstances, loneliness moments and the most barren times but they will never find joy in their own disobedience.

God is not attracted to your skills, talents or abilities…He is attracted to your humility.
