That is by faith. The aim of your charges is love the issues from Pure Heart and a good conscience in a sincere Faith certain person's by forming from these have wandered away into vein discussions does already petitioned the law without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions. Now, we know that the Lord is good if anyone who uses it lawfully understand this at the law is not laid down for the just before the Lawless and disobedient for the ungodly and spinners for the Unholy Strife strike.

In accordance with the Gulf of the door of the Blessed god with which I have been entrusted verse 12 says I think him who has given me strength Christ Jesus our lord because he has Judge Me faithful appointed me to a service door for me.

Just so grateful to be here today. And and I thought about you know Father's Day, but I just want to preach God's word today and it's Father's benefit. That's great in the mother's benefit. That's great. This message is for everybody here today with your phone my father and mother and I want to urge our fathers to walk close to Jesus fighting for gospel defend the gospel in your life. This is what this message is trying to tell us the day. I want to speak about Timothy for this the man. He was a young man when this was written to him it was written to him to a man to encourage him in the face with a guy who love Jesus Christ. I thought you was pouring out the pause someone need to pay really close attention to is someone who knew the new the Fate new the Lord had faith in God someone who knew the gospel message very well. I've had it in his heart and I wanted courage. I need the gospel message in your heart. And always encouraging I really really see discontinued every time we get the that's found raining in your ear. Do you need to hear from God you need to seek God you need to remind yourself daily of what Jesus did for you daily? Not just everybody every week or two or I'm going to come here on Sunday. I'm going to hear the preacher that loves the guy from preaches the gospel hymn to tell me this this Sunday cuz I kind of forgot it this week and I just somehow or another to make I got all mixed up and and things didn't go my way and I got mad and now all the sudden I'm I'm like the victim in all of this and I don't understand why I deserve all this and then we begin to forget what really Cheese's begins to tell us our life that we are not worthy of God's love on us. We're not worthy of God's calling on us so we don't have anything to offer God really at all. That the God will choose us is Grace. I mean that God would come here and willingly choose me and I had nothing to do with it was 100% God. So you have a guy who knows that I got into it with the who love the Lord has chosen to leave the church at Ephesus with Paul win and found in the truth Endeavor system. What Paul did is we look at this story and we look at one components of say I want to set this up cuz Paul Walker Paul did is Paul went to Ephesus the gospel Ephesus when he says in the Bible the gospel there. I want to carry the gospel there. I want to carry the gospel there cuz the gospel is first and foremost of anything we do in this shirt. Is it everything else if we don't get that right? We have messed everything else up. That's it. So what happens here with this guy in Timothy is Paul comes along and he goes to this church. He lays it out there what God did for them and they were following this wall system. And you had to do this you had to do that yet to do this yet to do that you had it didn't do this. If you didn't do the sacrifice and do it right and take the perfect animal didn't do it on this day. And you missed it or you screwed up that God didn't approve of you. Y'all are going to bless you fit in a bay him for the Old Testament show. That's what it's called about. God bless you. If you don't obey him, you got to do this to get God's favor to earn God's approval and all this got to do it do it do it do it and they just wore out. Can you imagine if you ever read it, but this is what I got to do to earn God's approval. I don't know about y'all, but that is exhausting. But I want to tell you this I flashed teaches us that a flash fees on that cuz I'm Flash doesn't really want to submit to God. I want to tell you that today people deny it because they don't receive it. I don't want their life to change. That's what that flash is about. It wants to do what it wants to do. Just give me something I can do.

Morningstar, this is Paul goes to Amazon and teaches them. They listen Christ Loves You by grace through faith. You're safe, not of works. what happens in work with begin to boast and women can become proud and arrogant and we begin to be better than The last time I checked that's what my flashlight loves to me. Number one. Why do we have trophies? Why do we have first place and everything? We knew why we want our team to win cuz we want to be first.

We want to be first. And if you don't know that we need God to show us that God show me that in my heart revealing the minute because my phone freezes up and begin to understand the Flash and these people are okay. We got a good message for you man. I have turned my life over to Jesus. I Surrender he paid it all I'm free.

Let me tell you what your facial do it'll go back. It'll go over here again, and then get the thriving on those things that are used to thrive on because that's what it does. That's why I'm telling you every day with your Mom on her cell phone what Christ and have some free got to give me salvation he paid for all he he filled all the laws some polling in his church and he cringes gospel environment where buys loving one another there's no I'm here and you're here. So level is level at the foot of the cross. Everybody's loving one another because there's no comparison. Well, guess what our enemy wants to do.

He wants to put it back in here. We can do a great job at it. We can Gospel Center everything in this church, or it's not about my preference. It's about yours. Listen. I want to tell you this here today. You got preferences I do too. But the Gospel Center Church, I'm not worried about my preference. I'm worried about yours. I'd rather do what you want to do. Listen, that's backwards cuz we're like no I want my preference. I want to do what I want to do. I want this to be this way. No. What is spousal Center? Do you want it to be I want to be your way. I'd rather be your way and you'd rather be my way. And therefore what Jesus did Jesus went to the Garden of Gethsemane.

Guess what? His preference was?

Father if there's any other way take this cup from me right what you I mean you seem to cross. But guess what? He did. He did choose his preference. He choose he chose hours and we didn't realize that we want to be with God if you want to know what you need. You need to be reconciled to God. That's what your desires in your heart. If you have them praise him send it all of it. Sia Gospel Center Church cares about each other. I don't care. I'm not worried about my don't worry about yours, but I want to tell you this today and if we're not real careful with fade back the other way, this is not something we accomplish and go. Wow. Look what we're doing cuz we always got to be remind full of it. And what happens in these churches hold those assets seized up and these people come if you read his letters, you see what happens if people are coming in every store at all it change it back to the wall got to do this got to do that. Sony's first versus what he really what I really am. I'm pulling out of here. This is why I see hear what Paul says not to guard the gospel.

We got to guard the gospel. Let me tell you what the gospel does. I know I spoke about the summit first Peter just remind me the gospel unites has.

What's going to unite us? That's not going to be that I think like you do. You ever talk to me, I mean. Sometimes you just agree with what I say. Sometimes we disagree with each other. There's too many of them. You have to be put a church of 200 people and place the 300. Guess what we got different preferences all over the place. I want this style of worship style some more. That's never going to be nice. What your narcissism gospel message? No matter who you are or anybody walks in the door. We got good news for Salvation your Center Union savior doesn't matter where you come from. You might be a self righteous person. You still need the same salvation the person just come out and tell it wherever the building anybody. I'm only human level. It's the same we can concentrate on that gospel and we've got it. We've got what we need we can we can do different preferences does list of my gospel. The gospel tells me that I'm more concerned about you than a myself cuz that's how my savior live his life.

And I want the flow through me Oceans Church in flows through when people come in at like man what they love one another is that church because the gospel is the center of everything we do and that's what Paul says don't lose it.

That's why I said in verse 3.

As I heard you when I was going to Macedonia. Remain in Ephesus 30 May charge certain person's not to teach any different Doctrine. What's he saying here? What's the doctrine of a church? The gospel hear Jesus on a cross dying place. We had nothing to do and he did it all in our place and he's giving me that. salvation Jesus fulfill the whole law

So I got to do this and I got to do that. So that's coming in. That's the flash like you only got to do this you got to do that. I've heard people say this it bother me problems find somebody that don't let me send send you to hell.

Christian don't let that sing sing you the hell. Say It Ain't So nobody to help unbelief is sin ain't a problem. It's been shattered. The only problem name for someone who doesn't know Jesus is not safe sends a problem cuz it hasn't been taken care of in the life of a Believer when the gospel is true. Send is not a problem anymore. Unbelief, is it says it Hebrews? What's the problem? Cuz if you believe in Jesus Christ, and you receive his payment pay for all your seats that's changing adoption around guns, please with you please with Jesus Christ. Stop me that puts me in a problem or I'm good. I did this. That's why God chose me know God didn't choose God didn't choose me for any other reason than the gospel message not because I didn't think I'm starting late because I read my Bible. Become the king church every Sunday. I got perfect attendance know cuz I was nice to somebody because I was showing my children how to do this and not a bad. Guess. That's what I do in response.

Border doodle teaching a law they were adding to it. Listen, there's no other Doctrine and if we're not careful, it will creep riding into our own lies. If what careful is teachers of the word. We're not careful as preachers of the word. We're not careful as people can play with other people. We're not careful. We don't really know and understand the gospel will start telling people there's a lot to do that. You'll never prove that he proves of Jesus Christ. Let me tell you one more thing. He improves with this man named Jesus Christ. You want to hear me today God approves of his son. He's well, please this is my son whom I'm well pleased then

And I want you to know this today. This is the gospel. God is giving you that righteous record in Christ. He want to hear me. God has given Stacy West righteousness a record. He took my record and he swapped it with his record now, and he looks at me. He sees the record of Jesus Christ all over me and I'll tell you that's why he approves of me. Because I am in Christ. Not because I've done anything right or wrong.

That's the gospel. And what it does it puts the glory of God on this play not Stacy's or yours or anybody else is cuz he's not going to share his glory with anybody else is what the Bible says even his mother.

But what he says he's versus he's really pulling out some things. We got to make sure the gospels, right? And we can't use the laws to man's inverse for nowhere to devote themselves to miss anesthesiologist which remote speculation rather than stewardship from God. That is my fate. They would add things back then come into the church environment what they would do if they come in and they would add Old Testament add-on writings to it. You know what? Those are they with their genealogies they would take me to people in genealogist and they will be out with this person did this and that's why that's why they're awesome now. You know what Jesus did I love this man? Jesus write his genealogy. You know what he did he put in people you wouldn't even want in your genealogy. That's what he did. You never put women in your genealogy and I'm not knocking women that India never put them in genealogy. You never put murders and stuff in your genealogy, but he did that why cuz he receives everybody based on what they still in the grace of God and what he did in their place. He turns sinners in the Saints. He does all of that they were adding to it and to what God what God was doing.

I want to say something to you. I want to read this verse starting at 6.

Now that we know the law as good if one uses it lawfully understanding this it'll always lay down for the just not for the just before the loss and disability for the ungodly incentives for the Unholy profane closest write their fathers and mothers and murderers the sexy more men who practice homosexuality and slavers liars and whatever else is contrary to sound Doctrine in accordance with the gospel in the glory of blessed are the blessings of God, which I haven't trusted. I will say something to you.

The law I want to talk about the law for just a minute what Paul said here is they're taking the Law, which is God's law and if you notice it here, if you really look at that, you'll start seeing what he's pulling out to Ten Commandments. If you really read those last parts, we talked about all the things that you're not to do. He's really talk about the Ten Commandments and how we write the Ten Commandments tell me what today is.

The hear me in this cuz I want you to hear this the law does not save you. Otherwise, I'll always how you make yourself right but God back then that's how they made us up. Right the guy you follow Ten Commandments you get God's approval. God blesses you. But the law was hit but let me tell you something. The long was was here because God was trying to show us the wine. Okay. Paul said he didn't know what it was to cover it until God says you should not cut it so the law was showing us the line. Okay, there's a line we step over when Ascend right? So what is the law do it shows us? What sin is? In the Bible service, you know, what is it saying that it was supposed to do we're supposed to run 55 all the way here, right?

What did you want? Samuel at 1:54 know you did but she probably rs65 cuz we're running late. We're trying to get there right you cross the line. You just send. Write this guy says we already lost gotten place for goodness yet. It's good. We probably Drive floor, but that's the law and what happens when I when I children or we give them this pit in the bed pickup this corner something off the floor on you. Don't put that in your mouth. Guess what happens to turn our back or they do? I put in their mouth. They just crossed over they just broke the law that we gave them because what? Because they're Sinners everybody's a sinner. Everybody has broken God's law. So what the law does it does it save us? Listen, if you're trying to be saved by the law and by what you do, then you own it which road and it's not going to save your ass not put there for that. It's put there what he says and hear they're using the law. They're putting it back into Christianity Christianity and do this to that. Yeah, we going to Jesus and I know that's. I'll save you the long can only show you that you need a savior. That's what Paul saying in here. There is a line that we have crossed it. It shows us that we are condemned.

8 Commandments in there and I told you before and I've asked you to take that Ten Commandments test. I'm just going to say that one thing to you and see how you stack up compared to what Jesus says about your heart. Not what I said, I'd good you were today. But what Jesus says yes. 3 plus the 10 commandments NSA listen, look at this is kind of Holly. Are we going to do about the Ten Commandments and God's going to prove us?

Let me tell you something in here. What pulse is we guard the gospel? Cuz that's the truth. And there's nothing else going to unite us because when we live by the law and that's what we create a church that's going to be good and be better than we're going to create this unity all over the place. And what he says about the Law's the law shows us that we are lawbreakers.

But I will say this to you.

the only way the only way the only way

for you to be in God's presence.

The only way I'm sitting on it, I won't say it again because the only one way to Bible says right one way the only way for you to be in God's presence and not die and not burn up and not be destroyed is to be sinless.

For you have taken every law for the time. You were born to the time you died. But you didn't send one time across the line.

Anybody willing to take that challenge?

anybody

let's look at Jesus Christ. Bubba said he never send.

You know what I think about when I think about that.

How do you not staying as a baby?

How do you not see it as a baby? How do you how do you not cry wanting what you want picture fit? Right anybody got children, they never fix to fit mine mine smile honor your mother and father poop.

I don't know if I have to do at age of accountability. I don't really know. I just know the Bible says that Jesus Christ never sinned. never ammo by Faithfully but in God's hands and trust that. Cuz I won't tell you what I need I need to send bear.

I don't know about you. That's the first didn't you realize you need a savior? Across the line everybody cross the line and here you might not cross the line.

That's what Paul saying Hey listen, let's quit playing around when jumping saying. Yeah, you's a good enough. Yeah, you you can do this and it'll be a Galah pretty I tell you what if you'll do this today. I tell you I'll try this if you do this today. God bless you prayers. You just live right now. I try to do right. God bless you prayers. Guess whose hands is putting it in. Yours guess whose Glory has taken away from God's.

Say don't hinder our prayers. Yes. I fell asleep with God. Yes, you got you won't get blessed blessing. The blessing is Jesus Christ himself The Living End you that's the best. That's the gospel.

To think about that I think about Jesus how he lived a perfect life. He did not send and I only way I can get into heaven as I got to have a perfect record. I got to be perfect. You got to be perfect.

It will walk around and let that Define Us and how we live. I'm going to try to be perfect. There were going to surrender Our Lives of Jesus Christ. He is our law. He is a person who has borne the whole law. He is the person who has not broken the law. He is the person who lived a perfect life for us.

Let me tell you something. He wants to give you that. So that's the gospel. That's how we sent her everything cuz we're not living our lives in Pride. That's why I says your saved by grace through faith. Not at work. So you cannot boast which side by the gospel anything to it to do this for you. How you dying for you and it will give you the opportunity to serve in response to God did for you. Go change everything.

So when he tells you that who's this what the law does and how the law controls this how the law is laid out not to save us the loss to show us that we need a savior.

I don't know about y'all.

That's why I worship.

Cuz of what God did for me that's the gospel. That's the message her and I want to say this here today. It does not matter what background you came from, but you come from bad before you come and Kathy break up a message for you coming to church of God. Will you come from Mormonism?

Where you come from atheism? does not matter the Bible says this the law is written on our hearts. So we all know right from wrong.

for the Bible says

and you know what people are trying to do even has creep into Christianity, which is about Jesus doing it. All people are trying to use human human achievement to satisfy God. And what Paul saying in here is no no no. No. No you bringing all that in you put in the law when they're the law with me to save the law was made to condemn and show you that you need a savior and I want to tell you today you need a savior. And if you have a savior you need to glorify him and worship him.

I will tell you that.

Come in this morning. Talk about this a lot. I'm asking God to reveal that you and open your heart to this it show you what you're doing because that's what happened in Paul's life and what Paul doesn't he celebrates the gospel? what what he says in verse 12 Yeah, I got it here and put 12. We're going to read 12 through. 17 I thank him who is giving me strength Christ Jesus our lord because he judge me faithful and pointing meter service that formally I was a blasphemer a persecutor insulin point but I receive Mercy because I lacked the Ender in unbelief and the grace of our Lord overflow for me with the faith and the love that are in Christ Jesus. The saying is trustworthy and deserving and full of it is the cross Jesus came into the world to save Sinners of who I am for most but I receive Mercy for this reason that in Mia's foremost Christ Jesus might display his perfect patients as an example of those who would have believed in him for eternal life through the king of Ages Immortal invisible and Only God be honor and Glory forever and ever amen put up verse 15 Paul just bust out

I want to thank Jesus Christ for freeing me from trying to earn his favor. I want thank him for that every day. And Paul says that Paul was a man of God. He knew the Bible. He knew the word of God. He knew the Torah. He knew all the lingo he knew everything. He was working his way to God.

But guess what? He was walking around like a speaking thing that nobody want to have anything to do with it cuz he was better than you better than them. That's not the gospel. The gospel is he's better than anybody he's awesome. And that's what he gives us in the last two verses the saying is trustworthy and deserving and Fulham acceptance that Christ. Jesus came into the world to save Sinners who I am for most there is no more to clamp Declaration of the Gospel clear in the Bible than that one sentence. Cuz I want you to know this Jesus Christ came into the world. He one I mean at one point, I thought it was Jesus born. That's when he started and when he was created when he was born. in Bethlehem

Let me tell you this today. Jesus never had a beginning the Bible says he's the Alpha and Omega. Can I understand that? No, I cannot neither. Can you but Jesus Christ has always existed and he came into the world. People who were like, have you looked out world? Oh my goodness. What would you do? If you were Jesus? Oh my goodness. He came into the world. Paul says he was incarnated in the human flash.

people on the road with flash And Paul gets if that's the gospel he put on the rubber place. He came a little perfect life in my place. And he was the guy was expecting me to live that I can't do that's the center of all of it and pulses that is awesome. He came and I am a spitter and I am foremost and all of that. I am number one centers what call Seth

This is what I want you to know.

I want you to know.

The Salvation is on conditional.

your unconditional means

snow conditions on your part

you receive right?

Let me let me just say this. Whenever you start to add to the gospel. If a church as to the gospel.

Then there's a smart we need to be saved and garlic ruelas. Are you in this ranking or not? When you walk in you sense that there's that ranking. There's that feeling there's that something you got to meet.

Guess what? People fill out to get left out.

And what Paul begins to do and I see Paul to look at Paul's life. We begin to understand it. Paul was the worst of the worst of the worst of the worst. Yeah, he wrote most of the New Testament. I love the reef Paul's teachings, right? Yeah Christ came as soon as who I'm foremost. He came to save them Christ came to say that's what the gospel sit and you got Paul who was the worst of the worst the worst poop with killing Christians who are persecuting Christians who were asleep when Steven got Stone Paul was there and he was the head of it. He was watching Stephen Gaston SC saw something and Stevens eyes and just something happened to Paul when he saw those eyes and that Christian going down by Jesus Christ and proclaiming God's glory in the middle of all of that. something happened to him and he began I began to scatter when I got stolen. He got Stone and he was chasing after him.

Matter fact he was chasing after him and having him killed.

And what he's saying is is Jesus Christ came in Jesus Christ shattered my life.

I was running from God didn't know it.

And God got my attention and save me.

I want you to remember what I say here is don't you remember this right here?

salvation is God 100%

If there is somebody in here today.

Who thinks they're out of the reach of God's grace?

And if we have put on a A4 front or a image that we're better than I apologize.

The first people here today to think I'm too far gone. I have cursed God I have sinned against God.

I have crossed the line. I'm doomed. New Apolo wants you to know this. There's nobody too far gone for God's grace to save. That's why I will take the gospel put on this play. It's all about him 100% You don't need to meet any qualifications other than the fact that you dead and you need to be born again. And I need somebody to save me. There we go. There's the qualifications.

I need a favor. I'm a lawbreaker. I'll cross the line. I want God to save me I want to be reconciled to God and God changes you he changed Paul he can change anybody. He was the number one persecuting the church and now he became the number-one missionary in church and Paul can't get over it. He wants to celebrate he wants to keep proclaiming how good God is listen to go through ups and downs in this church ups and downs in his church ups and downs in this church was going through ups and downs. I mean Timothy was going through a matter fact, Timothy was leaning toward that ever get in to get to him. He was discouraged. He said don't let up don't let up don't let up. That's why I said in verse 17 to the king of Ages and Moreland visible to only got to be all the glory forever and ever and ever. Amen. Let me tell you something here today the gospels going to Unitus. That's all that's going to Unitus. You know, what the gospels going to do. It's also going to help us to pursue. All the way through this you got a gospel Center Church. It's not built on anything with Jesus Christ. That's the whole thing is built on him is Mel on the gospel is Phil on Grace. It doesn't matter it 10 years come from now 20 years come from now 30 years come from now if the gospels the center of everything it will persevere. He'll make it. It won't be hinging on a pastor or personality or boys or style or anyting or the law how you do this how you do that? How you look or how you dress? How you feel lyrics

Tell me about Jesus Christ and him alone.

I want to hear that. That's what he's telling Timothy. You. Got to go boy. You got to get out there. Don't let them change you get rid of those false teacher their mind. They just take a little bit. That's not the enemy is did God really say that Eve? Did God really say that?

Freedom End of the World Church Timothy the gospel hidden. Nothing is 100% God save me I didn't save myself. I'm celebrating all about you. God save me what Paul says I was a chief. Family Guy begins to open your heart to the truth who you really are what you learn desire. It's all about you.

We got really begins to open that up and begins to show you the Bible says you committed one sin. You committed them all. You're guilty. You got a hard and you that I'll do everything you judge of somebody else for I am guilty. I'm full of it.

It would go against the show you that you might have done what I done, but you are the chief of Sinners and I'm the chief of sinners.

And I'm alone breaker. The Bible says you the soul worship.

Cuz I'm blind I got Jesus.

Cuz he chose me. I can't get over somebody can get over it. That's what he saying. Are you kidding me? Can you imagine how how old is looking at it coming in man is going to dice going to go away. It's going to not happen. Purses going to die at the gospels not the center cuz it's going to be about personalities and that person this person is going to head down the pastor can't do that and he's on the washing can't do that Jesus Christ.

I'm not leave here when I leave dad are allowed to whatever I leave. I don't know I'll do what God tells me to do. This church is sitting on the gospel song. Keep right on going. Keep right on going keep right on the power in the church, not me or you or anybody the Holy Spirit the conviction the truth last thing you says in here. He says we going to fight until we got a fight glove some I want to fight someone put on a spiritual armor. This place is worth fighting for right here. We're going to put us that's what he says when you were going to fight Verse 18 discharge. I trust you Timothy my child in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you that buy them you may ways to do dwarf are holding faith in a good conscience by somehow made shipwreck of their faith among Homer and mine is and Alexander who might have handed over to Satan that they made to blast me know what he says 19

holding the faith

you make Waze the good Warfare.

This one will save you.

Christianity is not He said Christ in Costa doubt. Will not be nice. Just soak rice and Coast it out. Let me just go and tell you this cuz it's easier for us to take the path of least resistance and go and let law be part of what we do so we can feel good about ourselves and really the enemy likes tattoos really not going to give us that much of a war of it if we can go in that direction and we can make it about how we do things and how good we are compared to other we can get Clicks in here and we can get high-rise families or whatever that make the power and all that then we can Roll Along a coast and do all that.

but if we stand on the gospel message

There's nothing we can do. Did Jesus did it all and we can hey hey and we can love one another and other words. I can forgive you and you hurt me. Guess what the enemy's come. Do you shouldn't do that your week. You don't even do that around over you you didn't make sure you write the wrong. You you looking weak to all these people around you. Guess what shut up enemy. Hey, guess what? The Bible says we got in we got our to tell the enemy to flee Jesus Jesus, right?

Now it's hurts. It wants to do that and wants to love one another and care about each other's preferences and more than they do their own. Image window you need to be right you need it. This is how it needs to go. You need to make sure it goes this way.

If we want to be a gospel Center Church lives out the Gotham preaches and teaches that God so I would tell you this here. I Love The Gospel y'all might not know that by now it but I'm attacked by the enemy every day of my life here to discourage me when I leave here and I'll feel like I just screwed it all up. He will heal he's going to work on me. I promise you I'm in the I'm in I'm in for it. I'm in for today or I'm telling you I'm in for it. That's okay, though. Who's gotten to speak your heart let you see who we truly are who crisis we can Proclaim him and you might go home and say oh, yeah, I know I got an enema if I'm going to love him. I won't forgive them. I'm going to call him up today. I'm going to say I'm sorry, even when they hurt me like crossword. That's what we want to do. Fight the good fight. It says will encourage you in here. You got to stay the course. Timothy don't let up don't be like these two guys that who got excommunicated from the church. So we take it. So seriously, we take the gospel. So seriously everything else we do the color of the carpet sizes that are the color that are the color of the paint all that we can work around and let's just do whatever let's get some else's preference and hit a liar, but I want to tell you something here when it comes to the gospel message. That's the only thing that's going to build church. It's only thing that's going to save you.

So we think it's going to save you.

And that's what he's saying here. I came with a message the same people. They were freed up. They didn't have to have God's approval because of what they did. They have God's approval cuz of what I did and I'm giving it to him as a gift and then leave the rest of my life your life in response to that. They'll serve those are not going to get God's approval. Not sure because it had God's approval at a church of go crazy cuz people want to starve. I want to see Jesus when he died in my place. What else would I be?

Religion is disasters. Read it becomes about me and you and everybody else is doing what should be doing. 47 hears you got to fight for the gospel.

if I ever heard the word legalism

legalism is doing things away to earn God's favor. I read a statement on memo his from but the man said we all got a little bit of legalism in.

That's why I told you.

We got trophies. We got first place to second base and third place. You know a lot of people don't like to play a game without it being score.

Somebody's got to be the winner.

Nice want a today. There's a little bit of legalism and everyone of us.

And this is what Paul was telling Timothy and he's telling us that I want to tell you.

shirts together let's do this together.

a spiked

and only thing is going to shatter legalism is the gospel. Don't say no shatter my heart and I got to do something. I'm proved by God is the gospel.

So encourage you everyday of your life and I say it I mean it I wanted to rain in your life and your heart. It should remind yourself. Of what God did for you a hundred percent you could not do for yourself. He paid the price that I couldn't pay at my place. He gave me approval with God Jesus Christ came and paid my price and gave it to me as a gift.

Cuz I'll get right light likes and I'll get right like your belt. I'll start leaning over toward being good enough and all that how get discouraged. If I speak the truth over my life and I told you this before you need preachers in your life to preach the word of your life.

And I would also say this. You do the loudest preacher needs to be in your life.

yourself

2000 years it ain't changed one bit.

Preach the gospel to yourself daily. Let's pray over this guy. We're so grateful today.
