The Mind of Christ

MAJ-6

May 19, 2022 • The Gospel of Christ

Give

The apostle Paul said, "Let this mind be in you, which was also in
Christ Jesus", Philippians 2:5.
Welcome to our study of the selfless mind of Jesus. As we've been
looking in this series of lessons on the topic of more about Jesus, in this
lesson, we're thinking about how selfless Jesus was in His mind, thinking,
life, and in His attitude. Christians need to also be selfless today. This is
kind of the opposite of the way much of the world is today. Much of the
world is selfish, much of the world is a ‘me first, me, and mine first’
mentality. ‘If it doesn't profit me and doesn't benefit me, I don't want
anything to do with it.’ Jesus was not that way. That's not the way
Christians should be either.

Jesus in the Old Testament

May 19, 2022 • The Gospel of Christ

It has been rightly stated that if you miss Jesus in the Old Testament, you've missed the ultimate purpose of the Old Testament. Welcome to our study of More About Jesus. In this lesson, we're going to be thinking about Christ in the Old Testament. In this lesson, we're thinking about one of the really powerful and unique studies in the life of Christ-that is Jesus in the Old Testament. Someone has rightly said, ‘If you miss Jesus in the Old Testament, you've pretty much missed the ultimate purpose of the Old Testament.’ Starting in the Garden of Eden, and working its way through the patriarchs and the prophets, and the kings of Israel- the ultimate message is: The Messiah, Christ, is coming. In the New Testament, we're introduced to Jesus, not as a promise or a prophecy, but rather as a reality. (The full transcript is available in the "Download Document" button above.)

What Was Jesus Really Like?

May 19, 2022 • The Gospel of Christ

"You will call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins," Matthew 1:19-21. Welcome to our study of ‘More About Jesus.’ In this lesson, we're considering, what was Jesus really like? This one that we hear about coming from God, who is God with us, how did He live his life? What are the things He did that were important? What was His character, His person, and His nature really like? How did He talk and act? What are some of the things that were extremely important to the Lord and Savior? (The full transcript is available in the "Download Document" button above.)

Jesus' Statements on the Cross

May 19, 2022 • The Gospel of Christ

The cross of Christ is the single most important event in all of human history. But what Jesus said while He was up on the cross, those are some of the greatest statements that have ever been made. We're going to be thinking about those in the scripture today. We're going to be studying about the seven statements of Jesus on the cross. And so, I want to encourage you to find your Bible and have it read as we're going to look at some very powerful statements of Jesus that He made in the midst of great anguish and suffering. As we introduce this idea, I want you to understand that these statements must have been very important- for it would've been very difficult for Jesus to say much on the cross because of what He had suffered. Think about the beatings leading up to this. Jesus was slapped in the Praetorium. Jesus had a crown of thorns placed on His head. He was flogged with a cat of nine tails, beaten over and over again. A purple robe was placed on Him, and His hands and His feet were nailed to a wooden cross. He hung there in agony. For every breath, Jesus would have to put pressure on the nails in His ankles to exhale. He had to put pressure on the nails in His hands.
