Jesus' disciples were surprised that He stretched the limits of cultural propriety to talk with the Samaritan women in John 4. But as Pastor Mat points out, the Lord crosses borders, both geographically and culturally to reach those willing to receive Him. Jesus challenges us to see people the way He sees them, and to appreciate the urgency of getting His Word out to the fields white for harvest.
As we continue in Galatians, the Apostle Paul confronts the church's departure from the principle of faith. The Judaisers wanted people to live holy lives by the Law, and they worried people would take advantage of grace and live however they pleased. Pastor Mat reminds us all that the Law is good but we are not saved by keeping it. How then should we live our lives?
As Jesus' ministry grows, John the Baptist's work draws to a close. How does John handle that? Very well, as matter of fact, and we have much to learn from his response. Moving on in this passage, Pastor Mat asks the question: are we slowing down the river of living water in our lives? It can be a torrent if we let it. Find out how to keep it freely flowing.
As believers in Christ, we have peace with God, but do we also have the peace OF God? That is just one of the topics Pastor Mat will address in this study that looks at an invitation given by Jesus. In fact, every time the Word of God goes forth there should be an invitation to do something with it.
