Our greatest hope to stay on mission is not our strength or absence of weakness, but God’s strength and presence.
Sermons by Ben Luethy (Page 19)
Point people to Jesus while relying on God’s perfect faithfulness and strength to finish well.
We are all called and empowered to point people to teach the gospel as we point people to Christ.
Look to Jesus for the endurance to point your circles of influence to Christ.
Only by daily depending on the enabling grace that flows from our union with Christ will we be able to pass on and share in the suffering of the gospel.
Gospel transformation happens in the context of relationships.
To finish well, we must look past the temporal and towards the eternal.
While the Old Covenant helped people see their need to experience God’s glory, only the gospel, can free us to experience God’s glory and become more like Christ.
To seek to know God intimately versus transactionaly is to echo Moses’ desire, “To see God’s glory.”
While our idols lead us to slavery and death, Christ frees us from the slavery of sin and gives us a hope that death cannot touch.
