Moody Church Hour

Pastor Philip Miller

Redeeming A Wasted Life

March 16, 2008
Before He entered Jerusalem on the donkey, Jesus cursed a fig tree that had not borne fruit. We might wonder "Why?" The sobering message of that event is our focus on this Palm Sunday edition of The Moody Church Hour.

All of us yearn for companionship...for fellowship with others. And the church is the ideal place to find lasting friendships. With the common bond of faith in Christ, the people of God can have a deep connection with each other that is truly life-transforming.

The church ought to be a lighthouse...shining brightly in a dark world. For well over one hundred years, The Moody Church has done just that. People from all walks of life have found Christ as Savior through its multiple ministries. And it is all because faithful leaders through the decades have proclaimed the gospel that transforms lives.

We have all heard the song that says, "Red and yellow, black and white, all are precious in His sight." Indeed, the people of God come in all colors and from all nations. The Moody Church is a place where East meets West, black meets white and the rich meet the poor. It is "a trusted place where anyone can connect with God and others."

Since 1864, Moody Church has faithfully proclaimed the gospel without apology. As time passes, some ministries veer from their founder's vision. But D.L. Moody's church is "Still on Track," some 144 years down the road.

Down through history there have been many outpourings of the Holy Spirit. Often we call these times of revival, times when new life is infused into the church and, as a result, into the world at large. It is at these times that believers are motivated to pray like never before. Today, we will spend a final visit in First Thessalonians for a look at one major effect of God's special visitation upon His people.

The church is called to understand its role in the world. Paul told the believers at Thessalonica "you are sons of light...not of darkness...therefore let us not sleep, but let us watch and be sober..." Today we will be invited to put on the helmet of "the hope of salvation" as we await the Day of the Lord.

In a day when sexual ethics have all but been abandoned, the idea of moral purity may seem quaint. But that purity is a key component of a strong church, a church whose members live lives free from the entanglements of sin, or as Paul puts it, lives lived "in sanctification and honor." Today we will hear Paul's admonition to the church at Thessalonica.

The path of a Christian's life is not strewn with roses. Affliction and trials come to all who name the name of Jesus. In fact, the Bible says we are appointed to tribulations. That was Paul's word to the church at Thessalonica in ancient Greece, and now it is his word to us today.

Left to ourselves, we tend to focus on what is best for number one, that is, us. But Jesus set an example of servant-leadership, and He expects His church to model that servanthood. Today: a look at how service to others must be the mark by which the world senses the presence of God in any local church.

Some think of the church as ancient architecture and even more ancient traditions. But the real church is the Body of Christ on earth. And that Body is alive. Infused by the power of the Holy Spirit, your church should be the vehicle through which God works in this world. Ever wonder what would happen if God came to your church?
