Sermon Notes 16/11/25
Sermon based on 1Kings 17:17-24
. "Is there life after death?" Start with "who holds the keys to life and death?".
. The woman experienced miracles of an endless supply of food, only for her son to die, in blessed times of life be prepared for trials to come, God will not have you complacent, He will send trials to you.
. As Elijah laid the boy before the Lord, so lay your burdens to the Lord.
. "See the power of prayer and the power of him that hears prayer, who kills and makes alive." Matthew Henry commentary on 1 Kings 17:22
. Just like the boy's dead body we are all naturally spiritually dead- you cannot give yourself spiritual life! God raises souls to spiritual life!
. Lazarus had two funerals- Christ did not!!!!!!
. If you died today- what would your status be? Have the things of this world distracted you? Have you obsessed about politics but not the things of Christ? Worldliness begets worldliness- maybe you are a married man on here proffesing Christ but then commenting and flirting on a woman's picture, etc. Christ sees all. Work out your salvation and proffesion in fear and trembling.
