Following Jesus is not a spectator sport you can watch from your easy chair. It requires movement. Christ's sacrifice on the cross makes us world changers but will not change it lying down. Rise up.

As the church begins to experience a season of peace, we see a growing community of believers committed to walking and working with God.

When the Gospel is Active in our Lives, it will form us into active disciples.

Everybody who knows Jesus is here to live a life that shows and tells somebody that Jesus truly is Lord of all.

A disciple is someone who knows Jesus, lives like Jesus, and leads others to do the same.

Jesus is calling each one of us to a meaningful relationship with him. In our text today, we are going to see the most unlikely person to follow Jesus, meet Jesus.

God Himself made it easier for you to know Jesus through the cross and the resurrection of Christ; why then shouldn't we do the same for others? Make it easier for people to know Jesus.

Access to God leads to a relationship with God.

People are literally dying to know and see, and maybe even feel the life Jesus died and rose again to give you. To know that it's real. You're the sign that points to Jesus.

With every advancement of the Kingdom of God there is both great

opposition and great opportunity.
