Sermon Outline – OT – NIV

The Cross

“‘Now then,

Amos 2:13-16

Introduction:
I will crush you as a cart crushes when loaded with grain.

  1.  The swift will not escape,
  2. the strong will not muster their strength, and
  3. the warrior will not save his life.
  4. The archer will not stand his ground,
  5. the fleet-footed soldier will not get away, and
  6. the horseman will not save his life.
  7. Even the bravest warriors will flee naked on that day,’

End:

declares the LORD.”

WHO AM I?

I am finding that question on one of the pages of the pamphlet I was given when attending a workshop of the New Zealand Society of Genealogists.

Have you ever asked that question?. I never have, but I know who I am.

Far North Branch NZSG

ONCE I was darkness, but NOW I am light in the Lord.

WHO AM I?

  1.  I am a child of God.
  2. I am an heir of God.
  3. I am a new creation.
  4. I am a servant of God.
  5. I am reconciled with God.
  6. I am accepted in the beloved.
  7. I am baptized into Christ’s body.
  8. I am elected.

And much more!!

In Ephesians 5:8 the Apostle Paul is writing:

“For you were once darkness, but now you are the light in the Lord. Live as children of light.”

My question when I was in my teens was: WHAT IS THE MEANING TO LIFE?
