You know, we could
have talked this for hours,
00:00:01.36\00:00:03.93
it was so fascinating.
00:00:03.97\00:00:05.30
But, John, I want to
give you an opportunity,
00:00:05.33\00:00:07.27
there are so many people
00:00:07.30\00:00:09.20
who are in the world filled
00:00:09.24\00:00:11.27
with such uncertainty
is at the end of times
00:00:11.31\00:00:14.14
what's going on?
00:00:14.18\00:00:15.68
What would you
say to people today
00:00:15.71\00:00:18.51
about finding God
00:00:18.55\00:00:20.48
and that righteousness by faith?
00:00:20.52\00:00:22.05
I would encourage any
person to start with the Bible,
00:00:26.42\00:00:30.03
and to get to know
the God of this book.
00:00:30.06\00:00:33.19
And then to
surrender their lives,
00:00:33.23\00:00:36.50
well, that
person's life to the one
00:00:36.53\00:00:38.33
who inspired the
writing of this book.
00:00:38.37\00:00:41.27
God either is or He isn't.
00:00:41.30\00:00:43.57
I think it's a whole
lot easier to prove that
00:00:43.61\00:00:45.17
He is than that He isn't.
00:00:45.21\00:00:47.31
How great. He really is a God.
00:00:47.34\00:00:49.98
We're not here by mistake.
00:00:50.01\00:00:52.05
These are challenging times.
00:00:52.08\00:00:54.52
I challenge anybody to navigate
these waters on their own,
00:00:54.55\00:00:58.25
without Christ, really
living in that person's heart.
00:00:58.29\00:01:03.73
Christianity becomes a joy
00:01:03.76\00:01:05.29
when you know Jesus,
00:01:05.33\00:01:06.66
and when you know
the power of the gospel.
00:01:06.70\00:01:08.03
Amen.
00:01:08.06\00:01:09.40
You've referenced the verse here
00:01:09.43\00:01:10.77
in our conversation, it
is God that works in you
00:01:10.80\00:01:15.37
both to will and to
do for His good pleasure.
00:01:15.40\00:01:17.37
Amen.
00:01:17.41\00:01:19.24
Christianity is about
people coming to God and saying,
00:01:19.27\00:01:22.24
I cannot but I know you can.
00:01:22.28\00:01:25.41
I am not, but I know you are.
00:01:25.45\00:01:27.18
I'm not enough, but
you're more than enough.
00:01:27.22\00:01:30.49
And that's His
whole plan of salvation.
00:01:30.52\00:01:33.52
Thank you so much
for being with us today
00:01:33.56\00:01:35.52
because the plan of salvation
00:01:35.56\00:01:38.29
that God has laid out
00:01:38.33\00:01:39.89
is one of total
dependence upon Him.
00:01:39.93\00:01:42.86
That's what humility is,
00:01:42.90\00:01:44.77
is to depend on His
leading, His empowerment.
00:01:44.80\00:01:48.50
That's when God stepped
down and became the Son of God,
00:01:48.54\00:01:52.97
the Son of Man, that's what
00:01:53.01\00:01:54.91
He did was totally
rely on the Father.
00:01:54.94\00:01:58.85
God wants to do
that in your life.
00:01:58.88\00:02:00.78
Our prayer for you is that
00:02:00.82\00:02:02.15
the grace of our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ,
00:02:02.18\00:02:04.72
the love of the Father,
00:02:04.75\00:02:06.09
and the
fellowship of the Holy Spirit
00:02:06.12\00:02:08.56
will be with you always.
00:02:08.59\00:02:10.23
