Untitled Sermon

Hebrews 2:14–15 NLT

14 Because God’s children are human beings—made of flesh and blood—the Son also became flesh and blood. For only as a human being could he die, and only by dying could he break the power of the devil, who had the power of death. 15 Only in this way could he set free all who have lived their lives as slaves to the fear of dying.

Not going to assume you know anything about what it means to be all in.

In order to represent Jesus this year, you have to be All In because Jesus was all in.

But first, let me give you some examples of what I mean by the fact that Jesus was all in.

Jesus was/is God

So the Bible shows us that Jesus was and is God. He was with God in the beginning and has always been there from the beginning. He was a part of God making everything. Big stuff right?

John 1:1–3 ESV

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Colossians 1:16 ESV

16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.

So… Jesus has been around for ever. Potentially harder to understand but let’s continue.

Baby Jesus

Jesus put on our skin by being born in the SAME way we are born. Now, I’m pretty sure there’s not a single person in here who remembers their birth haha.

BUT, this is important because again,

Adolescent Jesus

Adult Jesus

We can go all in for Jesus because Jesus went all in for us.

Has there ever been an example where you went all in for something? There’s nothing you wouldn’t do to reach that goal
