Homework?
Illustration of wanting to know exactly how to pass a class or the bare minimum.
69.5 vs. 100
Oswald Chambers wrote, “If we are in love with our Lord, obedience does not cost us anything---it is a delight.
Context on the rich young ruler
Jesus had just finished teaching on marriage, divorce, and celibacy.
Please stand for the reading of God’s holy Word!
Pray!
You may be seated.
The term eternal life is used some 50 times in Scripture, and always refers primarily to quality rather than quantity.
Speak on the eternal life and what Jesus ask of the man.
He first tells him he must follow the easiest of the commandments, though the sermon on the mount tells us we all have broken them.
notice He leaves out the first 4 commandments that deal with us and God which are impossible to keep perfectly if we are being honest.
This guy was living in denial.
Commit everything to Jesus!
Goes against everything I’m learning in my evangelism class.
Obedience is not optional!
Salvation requires repentance!
Instead of being wounded by the law, however, the rich young ruler was self-satisfied in regard to the law.
He diligently sought eternal life, but he sought it on his own terms and in his own power.
He would not confess his sin and admit his spiritual poverty.
Confession of sin and repentance from sin are utterly essential to salvation.
John the Baptist began his ministry preaching repentance (Matt.
3:2), Jesus began His ministry preaching repentance (4:17), and both Peter and Paul began their ministries preaching repentance (Acts 2:38; 26:20).
Peter even used repentance as a synonym for salvation when he wrote that “the Lord … is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance” (2 Pet.
3:9).
Transformation has a cost!
Pastor Johnny Hunt said Charles Spurgeon lost 80% of his vocabulary when he got saved.
Baptism
baptō: to be dipped (state)† — to be or become immersed briefly into a liquid so as to wet, coat, or saturate.
baptizō: to baptize — to momentarily dip someone into water as a cleansing, ceremonial, and initiatory rite.
niptō: to rinse — to wash off with water.
(NEVER translated into baptism)
Act of obedience that Jesus gave us.
No where in Scripture were there infant baptisms.
No where in Scripture does it say that you can only be baptized once.
Every example of baptism in the Word of God follows a decision made for Christ.
It never precedes it.
That is what I mean when I say that we need to get our baptism on the correct side of our salvation or it no more than just getting wet.
We must first accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior.
Then we follow through with baptism.
What if a 69.5 doesn’t get you in heaven.
What riches are you unwilling to let go of?
Is it worth you walking away from eternal life?
Invitation
During a call to confession on February 8, at least one hundred people fell to their knees and bowed at the altar.
Since then, the campus has experienced an outpouring of the Holy Spirit that was still continuing yesterday.
