The Game Is On

"Game Day"

John 15:15

 

“I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn’t confide in his slaves. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me.”                                                                                                                                     - John 15:15

 1) Everybody NEEDS Friends

Genesis 2:18, Then the Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him.”

 “Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in thee.” Saint Augustine

2) Everybody NEEDS Friends WHO…

Three things friends do …

GET in your FACE

            KEY WORD: PRESENCE

STAY in your SPACE

            KEY WORD: TIME

WALK at your PACE

            KEY WORD: PATIENCE

3) JESUS is the friend for EVERYBODY

2 Peter 3:9, “The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.”

v16, “You didn’t choose me. I chose you.”

 Final thought: Real Friends tell their Friends about the Friend named Jesus.
