This week we wrap up our sermon series, “Things Jesus Never Said,” with a look at a few things that tie them all together. With each subtle lie that sneaks its way into our minds, the truth we know begins to erode. With each twist of the truth, a false gospel is formed in our hearts, and they all proclaim the same thing. That is that Jesus, is not quite enough…
Oh, but He is! He is our wisdom, He is our Joy and He is all we need to make us right before a perfect and Holy God.
John 15:10-11
“If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.”
1 Corinthians 1:28-31
“God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”
Romans 3:21-24
“But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus"
