The Power of Grace
Grace compensates for human weaknesses
2 Co 12:8–9; 1 Pet 5:10 See also 1 Co 2:1–5; 2 Co 9:8; Heb 2:14; Heb 4:15; Heb 5:2; Jas 4:6; 2 Pe 3:17–18
The Apostle Paul is a unique figure in the the story of God.
++He was not one of the original Disciples
++He had no personal physical knowledge.
John recognized that their would be a people that had not seen what he had seen or hear what he has heard.
He recognized that experiences with Jesus would differ one from another.
John
++Was an eye witness
++Saw the works of Christ
++Heard the his voice
++Was impacted by his experience
The functioning of grace is not a concept of human reasoning.
Human reasoning is an activity of the flesh.
To understand grace we need our minds renewed, changed, rebooted
Human reasoning
++We get nothing in life for free.
++We must work for what we get.
Christian Reasoning
++We must obey God to be accepted
++We must be perfect for God to want us
++I must work to be worthy
Both forms of reasoning says
++God is waiting on us
++We must earn value to God
++If I am good enough God doesn’t want me
Peter
++Eye witness
++Saw God Honor Him
++Hear the voice of God
Jesus was both
++Famous and infamous
++Loved and hated
++The most significant yet _”insignificant”_
There must be a change of mind.
Jesus
++Knew who he was
++Did not speak of himself
++Form of God and Form of a Servant
++Jesus had a choice
We too have a choice on what we celebrate
Most of us would rather be like God
++In Authority
++In Power
++In Ability
Christ made his choice
Godly Leadership
++Is not Controlling
++Is not Manipulative
++Is marked by Serving
++Is is shown in Sacrifice
Sacrifice
++Is not giving up something
++Is what is done in behalf of another
++Is never easy
How can I be glad in the midst of great sacrifice?
We must see beyond the “No”
Sowing is sacrifice
++A release in tears
++It is not a loss of what I have
++It is a deposit into another
The Apostle Paul is a unique figure in the the story of God.
He was not one of the original Disciples
He had no personal physical knowledge.
++He had no physical vantage point to reference Christ
It was the Power of Grace
Jesus was seen
++By Peter
++By John
++By the disciples
++By more than 500
I was born in christ
++Without the same experience
++Without touching him
++Out of due time
Grace is the power of God
++To believe the unbelievable
++To Hope beyond hope
++To find strength in weakness
Lord Give me your power
