HAPPY SWEET SEVENTEEN HUNS~!

today's sermon.. =]

From: Pastor Tim.

A fresh start: A renewal of Power

"From Silver and Gold to Rising up to Walk"

1. A contrast of Value

Acts 3:1-2 -the man was bornt a cripple

-they carried him to the gate of the temple and he was now also a beggar.

-something has to change within to change him,

for him to be different.

-people were going to the temple to pray,

he was going to the temple to beg.

same place, different values

What do we do when values of Jesus clash with the values of this world?

-that's when the values of the person who has been

touched by the spirit of God stands up.

- learn to focus on things of the kingdom

"I'm with Him, I'm not afraid of anything else."

Romans 14:16-17

-don't let anything you consider good

to be spoken of as evil or be ridiculed

-the kingdom of God is not of material

but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit

- do not let the clash of values

make you loose sigh of the kingdom

Peter 1:18-19

-not with silver or gold were you redeemed,

but by the blood of Jesus Christ

2. A Choice to Live By

Acts 3:3-5 -what was the lame man looking at?

or looking for?

-Peter and John looked straight at him, and told him,

"look at us" and he did, expecting something from them.

If the world in desperation looked at you, what would they see?

- it is how we live our lives that they see us as

-we are judged because of our values

Live life according to the principles of the Kingdom

that God has called you to.

Peter 2:12 - let your lives be such good lives

Titus 2:7-8 - set them an example.

-so that those who oppose you may be ashamed

because they have nothing bad to say against you

Matthew 5:16 - let your light shine before men.

- that they may see your good deed and praise your Father in Heaven

-what does it mean to be the light?

-as God lights the fire of the holy spirit within you,

be the light.

good workscome as a result of the light.

3. A comparison like none other

Acts 3:6-8 -silver or gold, 'we' have none,

but what i have, i give to you.

in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazereth,

Rise and Walk.

Does our faith have the substance of silver and gold,

or the power of rising to walk?

- the man jumped to his feet and began to walk.

then he went with them into the temple courts,

walking and jumping, and praising God.

-what are the values that you bear?

-Never be satisfied with a limited faith

when the kingdome of God is a kingdom of power.

4. A confidence without measure

Acts 3:16-19 -there were those who were unhappy

with what had happened.

-when you repent your sins,

times of refreshing may come from the Lord

Why walk when you can jump?

are you seeking times of refreshment for your soul?

then make Him, king of your life.
