Noah: a Titanic Success

Abraham: Answering God’s Call
Heb
11:8
By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed by going out to a place which he
was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was
going. 9 By faith he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a
foreign land, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs of the same
promise; 10 for he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose
architect and builder is God.

Abraham: Passing God’s Test

By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received
the promises was offering up his only begotten son; 18 it was he to whom
it was said, “In Isaac your descendants shall be called.” 19
He considered that God is able to raise people even from the dead, from which
he also received him back as a type.

Joseph: A Hero Like Christ
Ac
7:9
“The patriarchs became jealous of Joseph and sold him into Egypt. Yet God was
with him, 10 and rescued him from all his afflictions, and granted him
favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he made him
governor over Egypt and all his household. 11 “Now a famine came over
all Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction with it, and our fathers could find
no food. 12 “But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent
our fathers there the first time. 13 “On the second visit Joseph made
himself known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family was disclosed to Pharaoh. 14
“Then Joseph sent word and invited Jacob his father and all his relatives to
come to him, seventy-five persons in all.

The Nature of Sin
1
Jn 2:15
Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world,
the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world,
the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life,
is not from the Father, but is from the world. 17 The world is passing
away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever.
Ge
3:6
When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight
to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from its
fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate.
The
lust of the flesh
The
lust of the eyes
The
pride of life
The Sin Process (1)
Jos
7:20
So Achan answered Joshua and said, “Truly, I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel, and this is
what I did: 21 when I saw among the spoil a beautiful mantle from Shinar
and two hundred shekels of silver and a bar of gold fifty shekels in weight,
then I coveted them and took them; and behold, they are concealed in the earth
inside my tent with the silver underneath it.” 22 So Joshua sent
messengers, and they ran to the tent; and behold, it was concealed in his tent
with the silver underneath it.
I
Saw.
I
Coveted.
I
Took.
I
Hid.
The Sin Process (2)
Jas
1:14
But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15
Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is
accomplished, it brings forth death.
Desire
– “Lust has conceived.”
Action
– “It gives birth to sin.”
Destruction
– “It brings forth death.”
The Wide and Narrow Gates
Mt
7:13
“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that
leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 14 “For
the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few
who find it.
The
Wide Gate – Many enter it. It leads to death.
The
Narrow Gate – Few find it. It leads to life.
The Wise and Foolish Builders
Mt
7:24-27
The
Wise Builder – Hears and practices the teachings of Jesus. Survives the storms.
The
Foolish Builder – Hears but does not practice those teachings. House falls.
The Parable of the Sower
Matt
13:1-9, 18-23
Some
Seed Fell Along the Path.
Some
Seed Fell on Shallow, Rocky Soil.
Some
Seed Fell Among Thorns and Weeds.
Some
Seed Fell on Fertile Soil.
The Pearl of Great Value
Mt
13:45
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls, 46
and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and
bought it.
A
Merchant Shopped for Pearls.
He
Found One Pearl of Great Value.
He
Sold All He Had and Bought It.
The
Kingdom of Heaven is Like That Pearl.
The Parable of the Net
Mt
13:47
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea, and
gathering fish of every kind; 48 and when it was filled, they drew it up
on the beach; and they sat down and gathered the good fish into containers, but
the bad they threw away. 49 “So it will be at the end of the age; the
angels will come forth and take out the wicked from among the righteous, 50
and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be
weeping and gnashing of teeth.
The
Net – The Gospel Going into the World
The
Catch – Fish of Every Kind
The
Separation – Judgment of the Wicked
The Prodigal Son – Who Are You Like?
Luke
15:11-32
The
Younger Son – lost in sin, ready to repent and return to God.
The
Older Brother – proud of yourself, resentful of sinners who want to follow God.
The
Father – kind, forgiving, compassionate, eager to welcome lost sinners home.

Three Reasons for Joy
Rom 5:1-11
Past
– We rejoice in Christ’s sacrifice, because he reconciled us to God.
Future
– We rejoice in hope of the glory of God, because we are going to heaven.
Present
– We rejoice in our troubles, because we grow through them.
We Do Not Lose Heart!
2 Cor 4
Because
We Have a God-Centered Purpose (2 Cor 4:1-6)
Because
We Have a God-Centered Treasure (2 Cor 4:7-12)
Because
We Have a God-Centered Faith (2 Cor 4:13-18)
From my friend and
colleague Dr. George Carman:
Timothy: Never
Too Soon!
Phil
2:19-20 –
Timothy became such a great servant of God that Paul proclaimed there was no
one like him. How did that happen?
It
is never too early to begin our journey of faith, Prov 22:6.
Timothy
had a mother and grand-mother that taught him from infancy, 2 Tim 1:3-5.
Timothy
had a good reputation from his youth, Acts 16:1-2.
Timothy
joined Paul as a traveling evangelist and became an example to all who knew
him, 2 Tim 3:14-15.
Things Successful Christians Do
They
say something to God every day (Pray), 1 Thes 5:17; Psm 107:2.
They
let God say something to them every day, (Read and study the Bible) 2 Tim 2:15.
They
do something for God every day, James 1:22; Gal 6:9-10.
Doing
so will help them to “grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord,” 2 Pet 3:15.
Measuring Our Soul 2 Cor 13:5-6
From
time-to-time we need to take a close look at our Christian life. We need to learn how to measure our soul:
By
our love for God and Jesus, John 14:21, 23.
By
our love for each other, 1 Jn 4:20-21.
By
our influence (What do others see in us?), Mt 4:13-16.
By
our fruit, Gal 6:7-8; John 15:8
The Divine Visitor
“Behold,
I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I
will come in to him and eat with him and he with me”, Rev 3:20.
Jesus
knocks as a physician to heal our sin-sick souls, Mt 9:12.
Jesus
knocks as a teacher, Christ, “in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom
and knowledge, Col 2:3.
Jesus
knocks as a bridegroom seeking a bride (the church), “Come, I will show you the
Bride (the church), the wife of the Lamb (Jesus)”, Rev 21:15
When
Jesus knocks on the door of our heart, we need to open the door that He might
come in.
Three Great Words
Come: Mt 11:28
Become: John 1:11-12
Overcome: 1 John 5:4-5
We
cannot overcome unless we become and we cannot become unless we come. Come to
Jesus, He will save you.
From my
friend and colleague Joe Slater:
Paul's Three "I Am's" Romans 1:14-16
I
am a debtor (v. 14)
I
am ready (v. 15)
I
am not ashamed (v. 16)
