Why God So Needy
Church on Sunday gavethe usual learning of scripture. We have learned that we can pick some “Woo” out of the sermon.
For months we have wondered, “Why is God so needy?” Two revelationsfor us. On Sunday we realized, something we already knew, but it felt more like ananswer this time. He died for us.He was tortured and killed bruatally for us. Then He went to Hell to minister to everyone that had not hada chance to choose Christ, yet. The Savior had come. That is a lot of love, so no wonder he wants our admiration, which He does recipricate.
Next, we want our wives to love on us, right? So does God. Would we like more love in our relationships from our spouse, whome we adore so much? Yes, this this is the jealousy you here about. Like a spouse would be, only not in the sexual way, but the love, yes.
Luke 19
The High Priests want Jesus dead because He was bad for business as he had forced out all the vendors, wanting God’s House to be used correctly.
Imagine a world where you never really consider that the Christ will come someday, so you just continue with tradition and ritual. Jewish people today may be a good example? Thus, the High Priests back then?
Luke 20
Story of the workers killing the owner. Who they cast out became the chief cornerstone.
Obey the government unless it strictly goes against God. Scripture calls us to meet and pray in public.
Acts 5:40, they were beaten for doing this, but then rejoiced for being in obedience.
“A church that lays down its life, can’t be stopped.” – Pastor Rob
Hebrew 10: 23-25, Not forsaking assembling together.
“A huge part of gathering is for the good of others. Essential.
to be there the most.” – Pastor Rob
God holds your breath in His hands. God deserves that I give Him my life. If Caesar deserves to get taxes.
Which is your rational (logical, Intelligent) act of Worship, to be a living sacrifice to God.
A scientist who studied the Bible said, “Is it possible that what people are saying no to, that they cannot comprehend, Jesus asking us to be heirs?”
Salvation is a miracle that starts with you being broken, and thus part of the Cornerstone.
Luke 20: 26, Some deeply religious people are not yet broken. Empty when it comes to bearing fruit.
