Foundations: When Jesus is Lord
from Georgianna Hosted by Georgianna
I need to confess right up front that this is one of those topics that I am super passionate about (consider yourself warned). I've said it hundreds of times, I don't meet anyone who doesn't want a Savior, I just meet very few people that want Jesus to be Lord. In other words, everyone wants to be rescued, saved, delivered...but they would just soon not submit, surrender or bow down. The fact is we have a love/hate relationship with authority. We like it when we have it, and hate it when someone else does. The Lordship of Jesus Christ is all about, surrender, submission and the authority of Christ. Remember, it's Jesus who said we must pick up our cross daily and DENY ourselves in order to follow him. Why is denying ourselves such a big hurdle to spiritual obedience? Jesus is either Lord of ALL or he is not Lord at ALL. In the 1st century to declare "Jesus as Lord" was downright dangerous. These 3 simple words could get you killed, because only Caesar was Lord. So here we are in 2019 trying to live unashamed for Jesus but what have we declared our allegiances to? Trust me our foundations will surely crumble if we have built it on anything other than the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Join us Sunday as we continue to pour a solid foundation for our faith.
