Sunday, August 11, 2019 - Kingdom

As we continue in our series "Kingdom", we follow a passage continued from last week. Jesus is speaking to the Pharisees, explaining the kingdom of God is among you in the hearts of believers. He goes on to teach on surrendering to the will of God is trusting in Him and letting go of the former things. As mentioned, Noah was righteous and obeyed the instruction God gave to him. Noah did not know initially he would be spared when the earth was flooded. He obeyed anyway.  In our lives, when the Holy Spirit leads us into places we do not fully understand, we can still trust Him. Jesus teaches us to count the cost before committing our lives to Him. Everything in our life has to fall secondary to Christ in order to be His disciple. If we hold things or people above Him, we aren't fully surrendered and walking in the freedom He died to give us.   Luke 17:26-37 Kenny Nix, Pastor
