God's Majesty Interrupts Humanity's Complacency 12-22-2024 Luke 2:1-20

Mary shows us that God is Omniscient, and we are called to be Obedient.  Knowing God's plan is not what we are called to do.  We are called to trust God in Luke 1:26-38.

Fear Not...What is the scope of salvation and how does that drive your actions in Jesus?  The calling of Joesph shows us that sometimes, God calls us to do things that do not make sense from a worldly perspective in Matthew 1:18-25.

We all have things that can cause fear.  Does your belief in Jesus overpower your fears?  We find the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth Luke 1:5-25, 57-66 where God fulfills His purposes through them by bringing John the Baptist.

Are you obligated to the sinful nature or to the Spirit?  Where is your allegiance.  The sinful nature brings death, but the Spirit brings life and peace.  Only in Jesus can we find peace from Romans 8:1-14.

Sin seeks to scam from Romans 7:7-25.  We all have struggles, and Paul shows us how to be vulnerable.  What struggles do you have in your life?

Where is your allegiance?   We are no longer slaves to sin because Jesus has set us free in Romans 6.  Do you attend Jesus things or are you united to Jesus?

You can’t outpace grace from Romans 5.  What does it look like for you to receive and give more grace?

Teamwork makes the Dreamwork!  Being faithful at the responsibility God has given me is crucial, and it is also crucial for me to trust that you will be faithful at the responsibility God has given you too.  God has different tasks for different people to accomplish His purposes in Exodus 17:8-16.

Following a list of rules will never save anyone…otherwise Jesus died for nothing.  What does it look like to die to your life of sin and life for Jesus from Galatians 2:15-21.

We are simultaneously a saint and sinner.  We are righteous and unrighteous.  Romans 5;1-11 shows us how Jesus makes us right with God and calls us to a new life.

Rest is in Reliance not Removal.  What is rest?  What does it look like to experience the rest of Jesus from Matthew 11:28-30?

God is both Immanent and Transcendent which means nothing is too big and nothing is too small for God.  He is big enough to handle the biggest things and cares enough to handle the small things.  Ephesians 4:4-6.

Why is it important to live both Grace and Truth?  What happens if we don't?  How does Jesus show us Grace and Truth?  Psalm 85:8-13
