INTRODUCTION
THE REASONS FOR GROWTH
That We Would be Fruitful and Effective
That We Would be Focused Not Forgetful
That We Would Have A Firm Footing
That We Would Finish Well
INTRODUCTION
ILLUSTRATION
Use College Graduation as illustration.
Students aim to graduate
Best student aim to graduate with honor
Parents wants their children to finish well in college.
Its their reward for their hardwork.
How much more in our spiritual aspect.
It is important that we finish well the race.
Someone wrote, “It is important to start right, but it is imperative to end well.”
Many people start well, but sadly end poorly.
We all want to finish well.
That’s why this is the fourth reason why we should pursue spiritual growth passionately: so that we will finish well.
IF I WERE TO ASK YOU THIS QUESTION: How sure are you that you will still be in the faith 10 years from now?
Finishing Well: Grand welcome
“For in this way there will be richly provided for you an entrance into the kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ”
USE ILLUSTRATION: A victory parade we gave to an athlete who gave us honor in an international sporting event.
Example: Manny Pacquiao/ Miss Universe
ANOTHER EXAMPLE: Stephen the Martyr in the book of Acts.
Jesus standing at the right hand of God.
We know from the bible that when Jesus went up to heaven, He sat at the right hand of God.
Why was Jesus standing then, when Stephen saw Him?
Because He was about to give him a glorious welcome for finishing well.
“The ultimate reward of a growing, Christ-honoring life is the personal ‘welcome’ by the Savior into His kingdom… it will be a wonderful ‘welcome home’
Finishing Well: Great reward
How can we finish well?
What are these rules that we are supposed to compete accordingly?
As as Peter was concerned, there is only this: when we grow spiritually, we will finish well.
2 Timothy 4
There will be a great reward prepared for those who finish well.
God rewarded Paul for finishing well.
The bible teaches us that unlike gifts, reward are earned.
Finishing Well: Glorious recognition
Your labor is not in vain in the LORD.
There is a glorious recognition for everyone who finish well.
