Sermon Notes:
Hebrews 9:15, 19-20
Hebrews 9:13-14
Hebrews 12:18-24
“I shall make this a very brief matter, but a very solemn and pointed one. My hearers, have you come to the blood of Christ? I do not ask you whether you have come to a knowledge of doctrine, or of an observance of ceremonies, or of a certain form of experience; but I ask you if you have come to the blood of Christ. If you have, I know how you come. You must come to the blood of Christ with no merits of your own. Guilty, lost, and helpless you come to the cross of Christ and to that blood too, with a trembling and an aching heart. Some of you remember how you first came, cast down and full of despair; but that blood recovered you. And this one thing I know: if you have come to that blood once, you will come to it every day. Your life will be just this - “Looking unto Jesus.” And your whole conduct will be epitomized in this - “To whom coming as unto a living stone.” Not to whom I have come, but to whom I am always coming. If thou hast ever come to the blood of Christ thou wilt feel thy need of coming to it every day. He that does not desire to wash in that fountain every day, has never washed in it at all. I feel it every day to be my joy and my privilege that there is still a fountain opened. I trust I came to Christ years ago but ah! I could not trust to that, unless I could come again to-day.”
- Charles Spurgeon

**Sermon Notes:**
Exodus 23:20-30 New American Standard Bible long scripture
Isaiah 55:8-9 New American Standard Bible -
Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord.“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.”
Numbers 23:19 New American Standard Bible -
“God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent;
Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?”
Romans 12: 1-2 New Living Translation -
1“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.
2. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
Tim Keller, “Counterfeit Gods” -
“Idolatry functions widely inside religious communities when doctrinal truth is elevated to the position of a false god……their trust in the rightness of their views makes them feel superior.” (131)
“Making an idol out of doctrinal accuracy, ministry success, or moral rectitude leads to constant internal conflict, arrogance and self-righteousness, and oppression of those whose views differ.” (132)
Ephesians 1: 3 New American Standard Bible -
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.”

Sermon Notes:
The LORD is near to the brokenhearted
and saves the crushed in spirit.
Psalm 34:18
For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
Matthew 25:35-40
1. Ask God to break your heart for what breaks His.
2. As He gives you a heart for the least of these, pray for them.
3. Ask God specifically for the chance to show His love to a refugee, a widow, an orphan, one in poverty, or one being abused or trafficked, and then pursue that opportunity.
4. Ask God to give you the courage to live from faith and not fear, so that you might love one of the least of these as Christ has loved you.
5. Don't forget we are sojourners too.
6. Keep your Fork

Sermon Notes:
In response to His love for us, we desire to obey the Law.
1: As we obey the Law, we are drawn into deeper intimacy with Him.
2: As we walk in joyful obedience, the Law molds us into a radical counter cultural community characterized by love, grace, selflessness, and generosity.
3: As we are molded into this counter cultural community, we become a city on a hill that draws people into the Presence of God.
4: In our inability to obey the Law, we are constantly reminded of our need for Christ, and our affections for Him are stirred afresh.
