The Angels We Appreciate, Part 2 of 2

December 1, 2011
Angels often appeared in Bible times with words from God to His people. Also, angels brought God’s judgment. In doing God’s bidding, angels have been charged with watching over believers. In this life we’ll never know how often they’ve protected us from harm. Someday we will know, and then we can express our appreciation. Today: more about God’s angelic host, and how they care for us.

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.

Sci-Fi shows talk about a parallel universe we cannot see. For the Christian, there really is a parallel universe, only it is not parallel. The world of the spirit exists right inside the real universe we can see. Millions of unseen angels exist, serving those who are the heirs of salvation.

The gospel of Christ simply means the good news about Jesus. His death on the cross makes our forgiveness possible. It was the risen Christ who commissioned His people to “go into all the world and make disciples.” What’s the best way to fulfill that Great Commission? Today, a further look at how we can make the good news of the Gospel known to those whose eternity depends on hearing it.

Turn on CNN, and what do you get? Politics, the economy, the war, for the most part, a lot of bad news. Now turn back the clock two thousand years. Even under Roman oppression, the early church reveled in some really good news. That news was the gospel: the message that Jesus came to seek and save sinners, and give them eternal life.

An inherent sickness has stricken the human race. This sickness is exhibited in our sin, and full prisons testify to the reality of it. Those prisons are full of people born in sin, born with a propensity to do wrong.  As Paul says, we are all, “by nature the children of wrath.” In our study of key doctrines, we are coming to grips with “The Sin We Rationalize.”

When you read the Bible, you will discover many overarching themes. One of those truths is that God is not tolerant of sin. What is sin? It means missing the mark God has set for our behavior. Sadly, many people trivialize sin, even believers. But sin is so serious that God sent his only Son to die as a sacrifice to pay the penalty ultimate justice demands.

Why do people tell fibs? This is not the time or place to answer that, but the acronym “FIBS” is helpful for today’s program. We are studying the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of a Christian, and “FIBS” provides a way to remember His four key ministries. Today, Erwin Lutzer will tell us what they are, and the difference they should make in your life.

Some philosophers acknowledge that there must be a God who created all that we see. They argue, however, that He is distant, and uninvolved. But the Bible reveals that God works by the Holy Spirit in the lives of those who believe, providing day-by-day guidance, comfort, wisdom, and insight for even the smallest details of life. What, or who, is the Holy Spirit?

The death of Jesus Christ on a Roman cross has been interpreted in many ways. Some see it as a sad end to a good life. But the Bible tells us that His death was a sacrifice that took the penalty for the sins of the whole world. The central mission of Jesus was to die, and then be raised by God the Father, to open the way for all who believe to find eternal life. Today, a further look at “The Son We Follow.”

God is so vast and incomprehensible that unless He took direct action, we would never understand Him in a meaningful sense. He took that action two thousand years ago when Jesus Christ appeared on earth. The Bible reveals that Jesus is the Son of God, and that all the fullness of God dwells in Him. Now, to see what God is all about, all we need do is look at Jesus. Today, we will take that look, a look at “The Son We Follow.”

How can one describe God? How can one describe anything infinite? The best we can do is to list some of His attributes. In his series on "What We Believe", Erwin Lutzer is describing “The Father We Worship.” He is doing that by describing the primary qualities of God.   These qualities open a door of understanding, a door that lets us catch a glimpse of His greatness as well as His grace.
