ENLARGING YOUR VISION OF THE WORLD #2
!
John 3:16
16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.
17 "Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.
2 Corinthians 5 (TCNT)
18 But all this is the work of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave us the Ministry of Reconciliation--
19 To proclaim that God, in Christ, was reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning men's offenses against them, and that he had entrusted us with the Message of this reconciliation.
Review:
We talked about America and God’s place in America’s past and future.
Then we talked last week about the world and our view of it.
Do we see the world from a Christian perspective as God does or do we see it from a purely American perspective?
In order to operate in Biblical balance we have see things from God’s vantage point.
Acts 1:8
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
*JERUSALEM*:
YOUR IMMEDIATE AREA~/EAST CENTRAL MISSOURI
*JUDEA*:
YOUR NEAR AREA OR REGION~/THIS IS AMERICA FOR US
!! SAMARIA:
A DIFFERENT BUT CLOSE CULTURE~/THIS IS EUROPE AND JAMAICA
*THE UTTERMOST PARTS OF THE EARTH:*
THIS IS A CULTURAL LEAP.
THIS IS PAUL IN ATHENS ETC.
Part of the last one is the unreached people groups.
There are many groups of people who have never been exposed to the gospel in any form.
We have to do all four of these simultaneously.
This isn’t a stair-step process.
Acts 10
9 ¶ About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray.
10 He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance.
11 He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners.
12 It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles of the earth and birds of the air.
13 Then a voice told him, "Get up, Peter.
Kill and eat."
14 "Surely not, Lord!" Peter replied.
"I have never eaten anything impure or unclean."
15 The voice spoke to him a second time, "Do not call anything impure that God has made clean."
16 This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was taken back to heaven.
-We must value others like Jesus does….remember
RED YELLOW BLACK AND WHITE, ALL ARE PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT?
Then we talked about:
WHO IS JESUUS?
! From Matthew 16-“Who do you say I am”?
Your perspective of Jesus will determine your vision of the world and your purpose in the world.
If Jesus died for the whole world….what
does that mean to you?
C.T. Studd – “If Christ be God and gave himself for me, then no sacrifice that I can make for him is too great”?
1 John 4
1 ¶ Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 This is how you can recognise the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,
3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God.
This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
4 ¶ You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
5 They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them.
-Notice that they have the viewpoint of the world or the world’s viewpoint.
-Your perspective of Jesus determines how you react to the world.
-Do you see the nations as in need of a savior?
If Jesus is real and who He says He is……. the world is dying apart from eternal life without Him.
-What motivated the early church to give up everything to follow Jesus and tell the world?
They didn’t add Jesus to their lives…they became radical Christians.
-I’m taking a class and it was mentioned that the gospels weren’t recorded until many years later because they were expecting this to all be over…why write a history for another generation?
-Who Jesus is changes the way you live.
Revelation 5
6 ¶ Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the centre of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders.
He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
7 He came and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
8 And when he had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb.
Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
9 And they sang a new song: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation.
10 You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."

DO YOU BELIEVE IN HEAVEN?
John 14 (KJV)
1 ¶ Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.
I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 ¶ And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
-Sometimes we don’t want to talk about heaven and eternity because we really like where we are now.
-I’ve personally never been happier….
but there is a place that God has prepared for me…..I know it is better than anything I’ve ever imagine.
-Someone said when you are poor you sing, “This world is not my home…I’m just passing through” then when you prosper you sing “This is My Father’s World”.
-John Maxwell said in San Diego the people didn’t want to go to heaven.
They just want to stay in San Diego!
-Is heaven a real place?
Is there something beyond planet earth.
Hebrews 11
6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family.
By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.
9 By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.
10 For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
11 By faith Abraham, even though he was past age--and Sarah herself was barren--was enabled to become a father because he considered him faithful who had made the promise.
12 And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.
13 All these people were still living by faith when they died.
They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance.
And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth.
14 People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own.
15 If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.
16 Instead, they were longing for a better country--a heavenly one.
