The Bible and Our Culture

• The Gospel is for Unbelievers and Believers Alike

• If you work on understanding salvation (the gospel), then God will cause you to both will and do what He wants.
• He changes your nature to be like His!  Philippians 2:11f

• Unknown quote: “The gospel is so simple, a young child can understand it; but it is also so profound and inexhaustible even the most brilliant scholars will never fully understand all that pertains to it.”
• The gospel is like an eternal piece of perfect chicken, that always has good meat on it.
• Separated to understanding the gospel

Separated to Gospel involves being in the world not of the world.

Jesus shows off by fulfilling so many Old Testament prophecies; we should boast in Him.

Living "separated to the gospel" is to live according to the Word of God rejecting the values of the world.  

There is nothing that was stolen from the first century Church that God isn't restoring to better in quality and quantity.  

How Jesus lived His life is our floor not our ceiling.  John 14:11-12  

God is restoring back what the enemy stole in multiplication.

Though the Bible doesn't command us to speak in lounges, it is important to avoid making up anti-Bible doctrines.

Ceasationalism should cease when the Bible is valued.

Context shows "that which is perfect" has not yet come.  

Dangerous proof-texting.

Romans 1:1

Paul, Barnabas, Titus and an unnamed brother were apostles. 

What is an apostle and how to Christ's gifts work together?

Ephesians 4:3-13

Intro into the fallacies of Ceasationalism

Though Jesus has made our identity amazingly positive as His child, co-worker, bride, ambassador, etc.; but we come to Jesus first as a slave to a Master.

How else can you come to the Almighty but first as a slave because He is the Transcendent, Sovereign, King of the Universe?

Be a slave who loves His Master for all His amazing goodness, generosity and kindness!

He does expect us to give up our entire life to follow Him. 

Reasons why the book of Romans is unique in comparison to his other letters.

Everyone is a slave to someone or Someone or something.  

Like Paul we are slaves of Jesus Christ and we have no rights to assert in opposition to what God asks us.

We have no rights to assert in opposition to God. What about the government?

Charlie didn’t separate politics from his relationship with Jesus.  Neither should we.

Your life today would not be the same if it weren’t for Charlie Kirk. 

So the weight of this tremendous loss hit me hard. 

Where the enemy digs a pit, he himself will fall into it himself.  If he rolls a stone, it will roll back onto his own self.

Charlie Kirk’s work can only be replaced by a move of God in the hearts of people like you and me.
