God’s Plan
Creation to Creation - in between accept Christ
Israel did not, given chances
Now the church is God's plan
Israel -
Jesus Comes in Person
“The Kingdom is at hand...”
Learn the lesson that Israel missed
How urgently would you tell someone something life-changing
- Found Treasure
Stock certificate - $5 at auction, worth $130M
Unexpected
Search for buried treasure - $60B under the ocean
SAVING FOR SOMETHING IMPORTANT
Knows what he is looking for
Treasure hunters KNOW it’s there
Urgency in both cases
ur·gen·cy 1. importance requiring swift action.
2. an earnest and persistent quality; insistence.
1. importance requiring swift action.
2. an earnest and persistent quality; insistence.
Stumbled upon, but knows it when he sees it
Sold all, spared no cost to buy the field, knowing the worth of the treasure
Searched for, knows it when he finds it
Sold all, spared no cost to buy the pearl (ONE pearl), knowing the worth
Jesus seeks all
Urgently!
All will be gathered (judgment)
“Good” fish - believers (not related to works, rather ‘keepers’)
“Bad” fish - unbelievers (not related to works)
Similar to wheat and tares - sorted later, after allowing to grow together (here, fish together for now, but not later)
This judgment is certain - very certain
How URGENTLY do we seek God?
Salvation
Sanctification
What about the cost?
What is the cost to obtain the Kingdom
Nothing, and Everything
Everything
Salvation is free - BUT, must repent, give up self-worship and look to Jesus
Following Christ costs everything - must die to self, literally a new creation, so life is lived for Christ
Weeping and gnashing of teeth - Hell is real, Hell is sufficient for unbelievers, and HELL IS AVOIDABLE!!
Do You Recognize the Treasure?
How did you come to know Christ?
Stumble upon?
Searching?
When you share Christ, realize some are searching, some are not
Incredible, impossible, awesome - to know what we’ve found - and to be EXCITED
True Believer
Excited to have found Christ
Has died to self, “sold” all, “sold out” - given everything for this treasure, in order to follow Christ
THERE IS NO HALFWAY
(?) - left (sent away) first love
