This is an introduction to John 1:35-51. Here it describes the beginning of Jesus' ministry and the calling of his first disciples. After John the Baptist testifies that Jesus is the Lamb of God, two of John's disciples begin following Jesus. Notice the first words Jesus speaks to these men. When they first meet, he asks them, “What do you want?” (1:38) I think that question is worth pondering. What is it that you truly want?

The start of the new year is especially exciting, isn’t it. It’s a clean slate. A new beginning. A refreshing time. A time filled with hope. And that is exactly what our message is about today—hope. This is the last message in our Christmas Carols series where we have explored Common Attitudes Revealing Our Lord. We’ve been taking the theme verse from Philippians 2:5 which states: “Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.”  We’ve covered a lot of attitudes that Christ had which we are to also have including kindness, thankfulness, joyfulness, holiness, faithfulness, and today hope.  Our hope is rooted in Jesus Christ.  If you're taking notes write this down: Hope is helpful when life is hard.

So far we’ve looked at kindness, thankfulness, joyfulness and holiness. But today’s attitude is—faithfulness. Today’s Christmas Carol is “Oh Come All Ye Faithful”.  When we rely on God or follow him by faith, we are imitating the attitude of Christ.  What does it look like to have faith in God?  When we are faithful, we are imitating Christ because like him we rely on God.  Jesus was full of faith to God’s will for his life so much so that he is called “Faithful and True” in Revelation. And so, we must be faithful. In fact, in some translations, the word meaning “to imitate” is translated “followers.”  To imitate is to follow. And, To follow is to imitate.

The Christmas carol O Holy Night has been sung for generations, and the story behind this song has an equally powerful message. Today’s attitude is—Holiness. Jesus was holy. You are called to be holy.  Sometimes don’t you want to skip this, toss it out completely or excuse this calling away.  We think, “I’m a sinner. Always was and always will be.” It’s true that sin will not be completely and fully eradicated in your life until you experience glory with Christ in heaven.  But this doesn’t mean we stop striving toward holiness.  As followers of Christ this is who you are (you are holy) this is what we are called to (holiness). Peter relays this calling of holiness very powerfully when he states in 1 Peter 1:15-16: “But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; 16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”  That’s the goal.

We are continuing our message series Christmas Carols using the acronym “CAROL” to help us remember the point of this series…Common Attitudes Revealing Our Lord.  In the Bible we have a directive; we are given a command. This is cool. This is one of the shortest verses in the Bible. Great passage if you are looking to start memorizing scripture. 1 Thessalonians 5:16, “Be joyful always.” This Christmas are you ready to bring joy to the world? You will bring more lasting joy to people this Christmas but not through any gift or present.  No, it will be by your attitude of joy. Draw near to God. Rejoice always!  It’s possible. It’s commanded. And it’s contagious!

Today our attitude is thankfulness. I could talk about this for days!  Here’s the deal: there is always something for which you can be thankful. Period. I have often been reminded that success in life has everything to do with an attitude of gratitude. When a person has a good attitude and a grateful heart, it seems to open doors of opportunity for them that would never be opened otherwise. Not many people who are bitter and ungrateful have prospered very much in their life.

As followers of Christ, we strive towards becoming more and more like Christ.  This is why Paul, a church planter and missionary in the early church wrote these words to Christ followers.  Philippians 2:5, “Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus”.  Some versions read:  “In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.”  Christ displayed over and over again attitudes that we also can adopt and exhibit.  For the next 6 weeks we are going to have some fun with these Christmas Carols as we dig into God’s Word on attitude.  I’ve made the word “CAROL” into an acronym to help us remember the point of this series…Common Attitudes Revealing Our Lord.  Let's start today with the attitude of kindness.

A day before the church didn’t even exist yet, and then Peter preaches the first sermon and BAM a Megachurch! 3,000 people repented and were baptized and said we’re all in! “We’re all about the New that God has for us and ready for God to work in and through us.” So the church was born and they were on fire. But just like we know…to experience the new God had for them, they had to do new. And the following verses show us the new things that they started to do. We’re going to look at the habits and new behaviors of the very first Christ followers that put them in the position for God to do new and amazing things through them. And as we look at these habits, I don’t think they’ve changed today. If we make these habits and behaviors part of our lifestyle, we give God the room to do New things in us and through us as well.
