THE REST OF THE GOSPEL

It's a community, not an organization- stupid!

Jesus already made you close to God.

What kind of "gospel" do you hear in church?

Romans 61 What shall we say then? mAre we to continue in sin that grace may abound?2 By no means! How can nwe who died to sin still live in it? 3 Do you notknow that all of us owho have been baptized pinto Christ Jesus were baptizedinto his death? 4 We were qburied therefore with him by baptism into death, inorder that, just as rChrist was raised from the dead by sthe glory of the Father,we too might walk in tnewness of life.5 For uif we have been united with him in va death like his, we shall certainlybe united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 We know that wour old self1 xwascrucified with him in order that ythe body of sin might be brought to nothing, sothat we would no longer be enslaved to sin.

Romans 81So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One. 2For the “law” of the Spirit of life flowing through the anointing of Jesus has liberated us  from the “law” of sin and death. 3For God achieved what the law was unable to accomplish, because the law was limited by the weakness of human nature. 

Did Jesus teach following the commandments lead to eternal life?Matthew 19:16-22

When your worst fears show up, God shows up stronger!

"There is a difference between people who grew up in church & people who grew up in Christ"-Muneyi

The Lord your God is with you,    the Mighty Warrior who saves.He will take great delight in you;    in his love he will no longer rebuke you,    but will rejoice over you with singing.”

ISAIAH 4027  Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, “My way is hidden from the Lord, and my right is disregarded by my God”?  28  Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.  29  He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength.  30  Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted;  31  but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

Mattthew 11:25At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.

The "Man" on the middle cross said you can come with Him.

Luke 2339One of the criminals hanging on the cross next to Jesus kept ridiculing him, saying, “What kind of Messiah are you? Save yourself and save us from this death!”40The criminal hanging on the other cross rebuked the man, saying, “Don’t you fear God? You’re about to die! 41We deserve to be condemned. We’re just being repaid for what we’ve done. But this man—he’s done nothing wrong!”42Then he said, “I beg of you, Jesus, show me grace and take me with you into your everlasting kingdom!”43Jesus responded, “I promise you—this very day you will enter paradise with me.”

Why are believers frustrated or depressed?

The shocking reality of why we don't have to obey everything Jesus said.

Jesus commanded many impossible things. What are we supposed to do about it?

Traditions of men nullify real worship to God Mark 7:5-13

Jesus didn't say He was the way to heaven!

The Old & New Covenants cannot be mixed

If it's not Good News, it's fake news.

"As Christians, we're sorry for being self-righteous judgmental bastards."-Jim Bakker jr.

Extra! Extra! Read all about it (in the Bible)

What you don't know CAN hurt you.

Jesus said He was the truth. Why doesn't the church do it the Jesus way?

We explain what the "rock" is that Jesus said he would build His church on.

How can you go to church if you ARE the church?

The scary truth: the institution misrepresents God

The good, bad and the ugly of church: does God understand?

If it doesn't bring you rest, it's not the gospel! 28  "Come to me and I will give you rest—all of you who work so hard beneath a heavy yoke. 29-30 Wear my yoke—for it fits perfectly—and let me teach you; for I am gentle and humble, and you shall find rest for your souls; for I give you only light burdens.”

Hypergrace is in the Bible:"much more" or "superabounding" This concept is found in verses like Romans 5:20, where the Greek word "huperperisseuō"(ὑπερπερισσεύω) is used, meaning "to abound much more, to exceed bounds, overflow, or superabound"

When you rest God works; when you work God rests.

We define what rest is and how it happensWe define what the gospel is and what it is not

JUST THE WAY YOU ARE

The ABC's of Christianity?

The elephant of penal substitution

God didn't turn His back on Jesus at the cross

God has looked at sin all through history and still decided you were worth loving. You couldn't get rid of sin so He did it for you

Sin lost it's powerGod separated you from sin!

Jesus + nothing = the gospelAnything else isn't good news.

When Jesus said "It is Finished" He did NOT mean, I did my part, now you do yours!

What part of "It is Finished" don't you understand?

It is finished, you are complete in Him!Celebrate freedom!

You are righteousYou are holyYou are cleanYou are innocentYou are like Jesus

His divine power has given us everything that pertains to life AND godliness.2Peter 1:3

Grace is much more than unmerited favor.

Galatians 4What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. 2 The heir is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father. 3 So also, when we were underage, we were in slavery under the elemental spiritual forces of the world. 4 But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.[b] 6 Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.” 7 So you are no longer a slave, but God’s child; and since you are his child, God has made you also an heir.

The Prodigal Son thought that the best he could do was be a servant and so did his elder brother. Unfortunately that is the target many Christians are aiming for. But it's unacceptable to the Father. (See Luke 15)

So if the Son sets you free from sin, then become a true son & be unquestionably free! John 8:36
