Seeking The Lost #2 of 2
March 31, 2011
If you ever wanted to know how God feels when we turn to Him in repentance, take a long look at Luke chapter 1. All of us are prodigal sons, and our Father rejoices when we come back to Him. But some of us are like the elder brother who cried “unfair” when his sinning brother sought forgiveness. Today we will look at what Jesus thinks about the lost people in your life.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

Many runners seek fame, fortune, or the glory of Olympic gold. Christians running life’s race have a different motive. Believers run to please Jesus, the Author and Finisher of their faith. They want to advance His kingdom, and bring people to know Him personally. So, what’s involved in seeking the lost?

The race of life often takes Christians into the heart of town. And as believers follow Christ there, amazing things can happen. When Jesus comes to town, revival often follows. People are convicted of sin, restitution is made, and spiritual life flows where it never had before. Has Jesus come to your town? If not, would you like Him to?

As a believer, you run life’s race on a track made just for you. Your road is not always easy, but its end is sure. We get to the goal by faithfully following Christ, who lived His life to minister to people. Taking His gospel to needy people is our primary reason for running the race. So, are you making an impact in your area of influence?

If you think that trusting Christ guarantees that all of your pathways will be strewn with roses, you might want to think again. Many of Christ’s paths were paths of suffering. If we are serious about following Him, sooner or later we’ll find ourselves leaving the oasis and heading into the wilderness. God does this for a reason.

Not all of life’s roads take us through pleasant places. Sometimes the way leads into the desert, and there we must go. Believers follow Jesus at His command. His road was never easy, and if we walk in His steps, some of those steps will be tough ones. Today: what it means to follow Christ into a place not found in too many travel brochures.

Down through the centuries, faithful followers of Christ have sought to live as He would have them live, asking “What Would Jesus Do?” The Apostle Peter says, “Christ suffered for us, leaving us an example that we should follow in His steps.” Following in those steps requires us to make fundamental changes in our priorities.

Businesses analyze “what-if” scenarios. So, “what if” a believer, running life’s race, really did what Jesus would do? That’s what Charles Sheldon asked when writing the classic novel “In His Steps.” The answers then were radical, but what about today? What would Jesus do? In a moment, Running to Win will ask that provocative question anew.

“You do your thing, and I’ll do mine.” That’s today’s mantra of tolerance. But in terms of salvation, only one thing matters. Faith in Christ is the non-negotiable factor than transforms people from darkness to light, and changes their destinies from hell to heaven. Nothing is more important to understand, and today you’ll hear a crystal-clear explanation.

People with no hope beyond this life live only for this life. Their motto: “eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die.” Believers in Christ look forward to a certain home in heaven. And this outlook turns their inward look to an upward look, a look full of promise and hope. This hope is something we can share with all who ask us why we have that hope. Do you have that hope?

A baseball legend once pointed to center field, showing where the next pitch was going. The crowd roared as the ball left the park. Babe Ruth knew where that ball was going. And Christians can know where they’re going after death. That’s because our assurance of salvation is built on three pillars in the scriptures, none of which is in any danger of being toppled.
