Let’s all stand for the reading of God’s Word…turn to...
You may be seated.
Let’s pray.....
Introduction
(Illustration about honor goes here....as illustration about how that when people do great things we honor them.
Look for an example of someone who is done something very great and is bestowed lots of honor.
For example the Alabama quarterback who won the national championship, for example he was told that he would never have to pay for food again..)
Did you know that if you win the medal of honor you get the following honors?
Medal of honor recipients......
A Special Medal of Honor pension of $1,329.58
per month above and beyond any military pensions or other benefits for which they may be eligible.
Special entitlements to Space “A” air transportation.Enlisted recipients are entitled to a supplemental uniform allowance.
Commissary and exchange privileges (includes eligible dependents).
Admission to the United States military academies for qualified children of recipients – without nomination and quota requirements.
10 percent increase in retired pay.
Medal of Honor Flag.
Allowed to wear the uniform at anytime as long as the standard restrictions are observed.
Many states offer Medal of Honor automobile license plates.
Interment at Arlington National Cemetery if not otherwise eligible.
When a person does something spectacular the normal reaction is to honor the person.
Usually when you are the first to do something you are honored.
When you are the best at something you are honored.
When you save lives you are honored.
When you achieve something against very signifiant opposition you are honored yet we see in our text that Jesus, instead of being honored for doing something very amazing and great the Jews began trying to kill him!
Killing someone is the opposite of honoring them.
The Jews had their reasons....
john
So the Jewish leaders thought they had justification to dishonor Jesus because he had broken the sabbath and because he said the God was his father which meant that he was making himself equal with God.
This was fake news.
Jesus did not break the sabbath.
He is the Lord of the sabbath.
He is God therefore He can not sin.
And secondly Jesus was equal with God.
That was the truth.
The Jewish leaders chose to not believe it although they had evidence that he had power over sickness and the body.
He just healed a man who had been crippled for 38 years!
Why could they not honor God?
Why couldn’t they be amazed and happy that Jesus had done something so good for this man?
It was because like Jesus said....
There is nothing new going on today.
People are still making the decision to not honor Jesus because they have chosen to not believe He is who He says he is.
The fact is there is not valid argument for not honoring Jesus.
THis morning we will glean four undeniable reasons from our text that you should honor Jesus with everything you have!
The first reason you should honor Jesus is
Reason #1: Jesus Does the Wonderful, Loving, Perfect Acts that the Almighty God Wants ()
If you can praise an all powerful God you can praise and honor His Son who is an instrument in His service.
When Jesus responded to the Jews he make it clear in verse 19......
Jesus does the same wonderful works a loving, perfect, all-knowing and powerful God does!
Jesus
SPOKE what the Father wanted ()
DID what the Father wanted ()
Jesus did what the Father wanted
Illustration of a person who gets accolades for doing what they were trained to do....like a person who saved lives based on what he was trained to do.
They get the award and they basically deflect the praise because “I was just doing what I was trained to do” “I followed the emergency procedures etc.
There should be one in reader’s digest.
God is great!
He deserves our praise (1 Chronicles 16:25)
1 Chron
Psalm
Get this.......You can comprehend how great God and Jesus are.
You can’t even imagine it!!!
Because of this you should praise God!
You should lift up His name!
People always talk about celebrating life.
They worship their life.
They spend so much time capturing their life in pictures.
What they like.
Who they like.
What they like to eat.
What they like to see.
But they don’t’ consider celebrating the creator.
He created all things.
Without him there is nothing.
The best things in life that you enjoy and crave came from him!
And so when you think of the greatness of God you must also honor Jesus because He is equally as great.
There is another reason you should Honor Jesus....
Reason #2 to Honor Jesus: Because Jesus Does Marvelous Things ()
The most amazing thing a person has ever done is die and come back to life!
Jesus did this!
If Jesus died and just stayed in the grave then we would not be here today.
In order to do amazing tings you need to have amazing resources.
Jesus has access to all power
This world is marvellous and Jesus was there at the beginning of this world He created for us to live on...
Proverbs 8:22
Jesus knows why God created the World and how we are to live life to the fullest how God intended.
Thats good information.
You should praise Him.
He is Wisdom.
Everything He does and will do is Wise
He is Truth.
Everything He does is right and best.
We praise kids for graduating from school because they gained knowledge and completed something
We can praise Jesus for knowing all things and finishing the work of the Cross.
Reason #3 to Honor Jesus: He Gives Life to the Dead (John 5:21)
Before Jesus is our Savior we are spiritually dead in our trespasses and Sin.
A perfect God can not and will not be in fellowship with sinful, vile, selfish, people.
But when you repent of you wrong deeds against God and ask Jesus into your heart then you go from being dead spiritually to being alive!
Eph
Do you realize that God raised people from the dead in the Old Testament?
