More than Enough & The Gift of the Spirit

Father, we thank you for this time together.

Our last meeting of restoration, meeting number 15.

And what a blessing it's been to study your word.

And we pray for your spirit 1 more time to open our hearts, to open our eyes, to open our minds, and to open our souls to be laid bare to You.

May we find the Spirit of God as we study and know that we've walked deeper with you.

Know that we are different people when we leave than when we came because we've been touched by the presence of your love.

We've been touched by the presence of your peace.

We've been touched by the presence of your love.

We've been touched by the presence of your power today.

This is our prayer as we open your word together.

God's great invitation for our generation part 2, why you are God's last day church on the earth.

Now you'll forgive me this is a different clicker sometimes when I click it it goes 2 slides So if you see me going and fighting with this thing, you know why.

But we asked the question this morning, does God call a people on the earth today His church?

And what did we find was the answer to that question?

And how many people of the earth does God invite into that movement at the end of time?

All people He invites into that movement.

There's not a single person on the planet, there's not a single sinner in sin that God is not inviting into His family.

So God's invitation to humanity is always completely and totally what?

And the reason it's exclusive is because the Bible reveals that 1 way is right and many ways are not right.

And in fact, we saw that Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life.

And we saw that as an eternal principle, we don't go to a church to find the truth, we go where?

And when we find the truth in the Bible, we look for a church that does what?

And that's how we know we're in the right place.

Now no church is perfect Every church that God has used through time has had Imperfections true or false and we find that to be true about God's last day church as well No church is perfect because it's made up of imperfect people.

But God is leading His church and He's leading His people back to what He originally created.

In the church, He's leading it back to the perfect truth, and in His people, He's leading them to spiritual maturity and completion in Jesus Christ.

He is restoring His image back into the hearts and the minds and the lives of His people, of His disciples, of His children.

Aren't you thankful that God doesn't give up on you?

Aren't you thankful that God has the power to deliver you from any sin in your life?

Aren't you thankful today that Jesus says, I can make you like Me in character?

I'm thankful today that my sin is not more powerful than the transformative power of God.

And the reason we know that to be true is because your sin and my sin was placed upon the shoulders of Jesus on the cross and it crushed out His life.

And 1 would think that the weight of sin would be strong enough to keep Jesus in the grave, but instead, the Bible tells us, that Jesus rose from the dead.

That's because the power of God and the life of Christ, the purity, the righteousness of Jesus, is greater than the sin of humanity.

And so when we have that understanding, that the power of God is creative, and God created the world from nothing, And the power of God through the life of Christ is greater than the sin that we may commit when we understand those truths to be certain in our hearts.

When we understand them not to be just mythic fables or religious philosophy or some kind of petty little trinket, but when we believe it to be the truth on which we hang our lives, then we know that God today has the power to deliver us from sin.

He can do this thing because he's done it already.

He's already gotten the victory over sin.

And that's the evidence to us now that Jesus can give us the victory and carry us into eternity.

Now you may be sitting there thinking about your own life, and you may be thinking to yourself, I don't know that that's possible for me.

You've got to believe in the promises of God.

It's despite your circumstances, despite your situation, I believe that God has the power to do what He said He would do.

I believe Philippians 1.6 which says, He who has begun a good work in you isn't going to keep beginning it, but He's going to what?

He's going to keep working in you as long as you're allowing yourself to be worked on.

You've got to be patient with yourself as patient as God is patient with you Amen, so that's the hope that we have in our lives And Jesus said you'll know the truth and The truth will make you what?

There is nothing greater in a world that is seeking to oppress you than to be free.

The forces of all of earth's entities May be pressing upon you from the outside, but you can have freedom on the inside Amen, you can have freedom in Christ.

You can have freedom from the power of sin in your life You can have freedom from those external forces and no man on the earth No group of men no institution or no organization can take away the freedom that Jesus can give to you.

Yes, that's that's just the truth of the matter, because Jesus said, when you find me, you'll find freedom.

So we looked at the book of Revelation and we saw these 2 different entities and we saw how when Jesus came to the earth, he set up and he he attended to establish 1 church That would be his church all the way through time But because of the error of men because of the deviation of men from the Word of God that church ended up being 2 churches, 1 that represented God through time and 1 that represented this other system at the end.

And Jesus talks about that system of confusion.

And he has a message for all of his people.

Remember, we said that God has people in how many churches?

How many religions does God have people in?

How many philosophies does God have people in all?

But while God will accept people, He will not accept every belief system.

He accepts the belief system that is true from the Bible.

See, God will accept all people when they come into that message of truth and freedom.

But He does not accept every belief system.
