Sermon Tone Analysis

Imagine, being in the presence of Jesus when he spoke these words; with the marks of the wounds in his hands, would you hear his words, would you take it in, or would they just pass by as you were so focused on his appearance?

Or do you hear these words as IF he were standing beside you and speaking them to YOU right now?

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.

As I conclude, let’s look at the first couple verses here first: Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.

When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.

Which group do you find yourself in?

Worshiping him or doubting him?

Its not too late.

Hebrews 7:18–25

18 The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless 19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.

20 And it was not without an oath!

Others became priests without any oath, 21 but he became a priest with an oath when God said to him:

“The Lord has sworn

and will not change his mind:

‘You are a priest forever.’

” 

22 Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantor of a better covenant.

23 Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; 24 but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood.

25 Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.
