Acting advantageously. Taking Careful Advantage of Opportunity. Cunning, Farsighted, Ingenious, Streetwise, Discerning, Perceptive, Clever, Wise, Prudent, Smart 3 Lessons: Money & How It Relates To Others Luke 14:9  “I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings.” Money & How It Relates To Self Luke 16:10-12 “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?  And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own.” Money & How It Relates To God Luke 16:13 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” Summary:   Use of money is a test. A test of your attitude toward others:  are you really pouring it into reaching people who can be friends for eternity? Use of money is an indication of your true character: are you really faithful? Faithful with little. Faithful with what isn’t even yours to use it to honor God? Are you truly a servant of the Lord obeying only Him? Are you wholeheartedly devoted to Christ & hating anything that is another master competing with Him?

Amen.   Introduction: What I want to talk about today is the right motivation in rededicating ourselves to God and to what he calls us to do. Everything we do must be either from God, through God, or for God God has to be at the centre of our lives The Lordship of God, of Jesus, must be the most important thing we treasure Loving God, with all our hearts, all our minds, all our souls, that is what needs to be motivating us (Matt 22:37-40) The Bridge video (from communion): http://www.vancouverchurchofchrist.org/the-bridge-how-far-would-you-go/ Imagine if you were on that train. What would be your response? What would be the right thing to do? Wouldn’t the most honorable, ultimately loving thing to do, considering the father, is to slam on the emergency break, run out of the train and kneel before the father, and say, “my life is in your hands, take me as your son / daughter” I will dedicate my life to you I will now be your son / daughter that you lost We do that when we first decide to become disciples, when we say Jesus is Lord But we need to rededicate ourselves to that, otherwise our hearts will grow cold. Law of Entropy, 2nd law of thermodynamics Order leads to disorder A hot cup of water will grow cold Our hearts will grow cold, lose vision, if energy is not put into growing our faith, maturing in Christ So where are hearts are at is crucial for moving forward Personal evaluation helped me see where I personally needed to rededicate my life to God’s will, showed me where I had strayed Main point: When we acknowledge that everything is from God, everything we do is through God, and everything we do is for God, then we can lay down our lives for him. And when we acknowledge that about God, aren’t we ultimately loving God That’s the first commandment – Matt 22:37-40 Do we love God enough to be his servants, work for him, offer our lives to him? We’re going to be looking at Romans 12:1-2 Body: Have the right motivation Romans 12:1-2 (1984) 1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. 2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Therefore: What’s been leading up to this? Romans 3:23 – all have sinned Romans 5:1 – Justified by faith Romans 6:4- Raised through baptism to a new life Romans 8:1 No condemnation Therefore – based on all that, what should we do? How should we live? I urge you Urging is not a command He’s pleading That’s amazing, considering maybe he should be ordering us In view of God’s mercy Mercy is the quality of God that leads him to deliver us from sin and misery Mercy is deliverance from the condemnation we deserve All have sinned and come short of the glory of God We deserve death – wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23) Different from grace – God giving us blessings we don’t deserve the blessing of salvation, of heaven, eternal life This should motivate us – God’s mercy, God’s grace He urges us to offer our bodies as living sacrifices Have the right motives Do it because you really want to Not because of the church, because of God Because you love God Because of what God has done for you You offer yourself to that father because of what he s[...] Sermons VCOC no no
