Sermon Notes
If what we believe is TRUE, then we are never afraid of the TRUTH.
[Ephesians 2:8 NIV] For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--
Our faith is not in an OBJECT it is in JESUS.
[James 2:19-20] You say you have faith, for you believe that there is one God. Good for you! Even the demons believe this, and they tremble in terror. [20] How foolish! Can't you see that faith without good deeds is useless?
The Bible is a record of God’s interaction with real PEOPLE, in real PLACES, at real TIMES.
[1 Peter 3:15 NIV] But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,
Times may CHANGE but God's Word remains the SAME.
[Numbers 6:24-26 NIV] "The LORD bless you and keep you; [25] the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; [26] the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace." '
Scripture has remained CONSISTENT throughout the ages.
[Matthew 5:17-18] "Don't misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose. [18] I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not even the smallest detail of God's law will disappear until its purpose is achieved.
The Bible is the most ACCURATE ancient document in existence.
[2 Timothy 3:16-17] All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. [17] God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.
