It’s not about Religion, It’s about a _______________.
Relationship with Jesus Christ.
We’ve heard this 1000 times.
Incomplete.
It’s about a Right Relationship with Jesus Christ.
There are many different types of relationships.
Martye is my wife.
Hug, Kiss, I love you before I go to work.
Danny is my friend.
We don’t hug and kiss.
How you define your relationship with Christ is a bid deal.
If you miss the mark on what God says about your relationship with Himself, at the least you will miss out on the fullness of Joy and Peace the he has for you right now.
At the worst, you will be eternally separated from God in a place called Hell.
God is not looking for cookie cutter Christians.
My relationship with Christ is not going be the exact same as your relationship with Him.
Because we are different people.
I’ve known married couples that didn’t sleep in the same room.
That seems weird to me, but that doesn’t make it wrong.
It worked for them.
Have you seen the youtube videos of husband vs wife pranks?
That won’t fly in my house.
Practical Jokes is not one of my wife’s love languages.
The point is that your individual relationship with Christ will be unique to you.
Its a personal relationship.
That said, we need to look as the Word to understand the general parameters of that relationship; meaning weather you live in Albuquerque, or Arkansas, you’re still in the US, but it’s helpful to know where the boarders.
So how did the writers of the New Testament define their relationship with Jesus?
Philip
There is a pattern here.
What do you think 1st Peter says?
Peter, .....
What is a Bond servant?
We are made free by Christ.
The apostles were
Becoming a Bond Servant.
Paul talks about being completely sold out to Christ
So What are the Characters of being a bond servant of Christ?
A Bond Servant: Knows Christ, Loves Christ, Obeys Christ and, Trusts Christ
Knows Christ, Loves Christ, Obeys Christ and, Trusts Christ
Adrian Rogers might have said
Lean, Love, Listen to, and Lean on Christ
Loves Christ, Obeys Christ and, Trusts Christ
Obeys Christ and, Trusts Christ
Learn: You cannot serve someone you don’t know
I’ve know people that met their spouse in Kindergarten, became HS Sweethearts, then got married.
Trusts Christ
Others, the only thing you knew was “She’s pretty and and good kisser.
She’s the one.”
Similarly, Some of you grew up in Church, learned of Jesus, then got saved.
Others, all you knew is you were broken and missing something.
Someone told you about a man named Jesus that was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died for you your sins and was raised from the dead.
Martye and I have been married
Just like we continue to know our wives after we get married, we are to continue to learn more about who Christ is until we come into his presence.
Bond Servants Love Jesus
Three most common Greek words for love in the NT
Phileo: A companionable love.
Eros: A passionate love.
Saturday night, candle lit dinner, a little music.
Agape: Selfless love.
1 Corinthians
Matthew 22:
A Bond Servant of Christ Obeys Him
I Supervise 24 people.
My Job is to support, lead, and encourage them to do their job, and to correct them when they don’t.
I’ve had bosses that didn’t think you could have a friendly relationship with the people that supervise them.
Romans 1:
Obedience is where people will cry out: Here comes all the rules!!!
On their birthdays, we would alway ask our kids what they wanted so we could give them a gift they would enjoy
We didn’t get them what they wanted so that they would love us.
Or we didn’t do it to try to
Convince everyone else we love our kids.
.
Or even to try and convince them that we loved them.
We love our kids and wanted to give them a gift as a expression of our love.
If you love Christ, the way to demonstrate that love is to obey what he told us.
5 love languages.
Obedience is Christ’s love language.
Feed the hungry, cloth the naked, visit the widow.
A Bond Servant will trust in Christ
Peter because of fear, denied Christ 3 times.
Peter, because of fear and lacking in trust denied Christ three times.
But, Christian tradition tells us that he was faced with the choice of denying Jesus or being crucified.
Not only did he not deny his savior, but asked to be crucified upside down because he didn't’ feel worthy.
Paul said in
Philipians
We start our relationship with Christ by trusting him with salvation, but as that relationship grows, we learn to trust him with our relationships, our finances, and ultimately unto death.
are you in your relationship with Christ?
Where are you in your relationship with Christ?
