New Life

As another year starts, we all have expectations. The end of the year is a time of reflection, and a new year starts with new hope that things will be different. 

This year the focus concerning church for me is to meditate and teach on the topic of New Life. 

Eph. 4:23-24 -  to be made new in the attitude of your minds; 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

2 Cor. 5:17- This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!

Romans 6:1-4 - Well then, should we keep on sinning so that God can show us more and more of his wonderful grace? 2 Of course not! Since we have died to sin, how can we continue to live in it? 3 Or have you forgotten that when we were joined with Christ Jesus in baptism, we joined him in his death? 4 For we died and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives.

Main Points from the messages.

Message Portion:- Philemon 1:19-25

Main Verse:- Phil. 1:21

Since I am confident of your obedience, I am writing to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say. 

Introduction

• Eph. 4:31-32 - 31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. 32 Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
• Mathew 6:14 - “For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.”
• Col. 3:13 - “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”
• Mark 11:25 - “And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”
• Prov. 17:9 - “Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends.”
• “You can clutch the past so tightly to your chest that it leaves your arms too full to embrace the present.” - Jan Glidewell

1. What do we owe? (19)
2. Forgiveness is beneficial and refreshes the heart (20)
3. Forgiveness is a matter of obedience (21)
4. Response to Godly Leadership (21,22)
5. Forgiveness brings restoration (23-24)

Conclusion

And you know, when you've experienced grace and you feel like you've been forgiven, you're a lot more forgiving of other people. You're a lot more gracious to others. - Rick Warren
