Sermon Notes 26/01/25

An acronym for bless from the service:

Begin with prayer
Listen (to others)
Eat (with others)
Serve (others)
Share (your testimony with others)

. Serve others- Jesus did the lowliest job of washing feet even before he took all the punishment for sin and had God's unfettered wrath poured on him, he still served others.

. Considering the above think of the opportunities available to you- that elderly neighbour you can help out and say hi to, that family who have just moved here from abroad and need some friends.

. Go and be ambassadors for Christ- seek and save the lost. Go and interact with people!

Jesus took on the wrath of God for humanity's sins, but the Bible doesn't say that God poured out his wrath on Jesus.

Our nature may have been “children of wrath,” but God, even while we were “dead in our trespasses,”.... before Jesus died on the cross, there was no transfer of wrath onto his Son. Jesus is sinless. Good thing to think about, so thank you for this. Jesus took the sins of the world onto his shoulders, but God's wrath was not directed at his son.

The wrath of God will one day be laid on all unrighteousness, but those in Christ will be revealed to be hidden with Him. Christ bore our sins and died as an atonement for us, but God's wrath was not poured out on Him. God hates sin, not the sinner, so his wrath is against sin. He hates it more than anything because it's separates us from God, but only until we accept Jesus's payment on the cross for our sins and find salvation through Christ.
