Law Before Gospel
White patches that Jesse red is a very familiar account. if any of us know it as The story. Is that a parable? It's a story of the Rich Young Ruler.
Got lots of accounts will be doing will through his spirit. Determined that it should be in all three of the synoptic gospel. Where to make sure we understood it. Talk about the man who is seeking eternal life.
And it's been who love each other like was. Maybe you don't Jesus Define what he put a life is eternal life is a know, the true God and Jesus whom God has sent its a relationship eternal life begins at the moment of the New Birth. When something is true faith in Christ, and this young man who was pursuing a total wife, he knew that you wasn't quite there. You didn't really know God and he certainly didn't know price, but he was in pursuit of it.
No problem with Young Ruler but I don't want you to turn your mind off because you might need while I'm not rich. I'm not young and I'm not a ruler, I don't have a forwarding Let me tell you this account here, applies as brother middle said to everyone. Boston stage, because it teaches the essence of sin is Suits the teachers, the essence Jesus taught, the essence of sin of depravity of a bulldog.
Other pensions opposing for conversion and a Salvation is all there. Where you lost your see, whether you're rich young or you have authority,
Exposes, the deceit of the human heart. But it shows God's way to Salvation not meant, is it?
In a nutshell, the trim a tree. This parable. Is that war must be presented war. Must be 3. Before the gospel is even spoken of more before possible. And That sinful man has the natural. Inclination to promote himself as yourself higher than he really is. But one of the two things, very important Number one, the law of God must corner. You must compete. You impugn you convict? You show you that you're hopeless, hopeless Center. That's one of the other is The sinful person escaping the ever seeking eyes of the Lord? As we saw through the sewers law runaway. I think, you know, I'm not like that, I'm not like that. I'm not like that, Thornton fine. That's what you do.
And so there must be a condemnation of sin before the gospel is presented or do you? And that's what he did. So many times in the Bible Jesus said they did that a whole or he'll see if you're not a doctor but those are 600 mg said to call the righteous but Sinners to repentance. If you don't think yourself to be a sinner and spiritually ruined, you don't need Jesus to see the Lord, to show you their 6 that you're dead in sin and therefore you need to break position.
The Trojans are. Holy men of God, back in the 60s, who studied the human heart, how simple it was, and how to apply the preaching, the scripture to shut make the heart. Not something I want to do this morning using the word of God. Let's all stand as we turned the passes out. The whole Palace is for the meat of the passage in Mark, I told you in the synoptic gospels, Matthew Morgan Loop for reading from Luke from Mark, And when Jesus was gone forth into the way, they came one morning and he'll to him and ask him. Good luck. What do I do that? I might inherit eternal life. As Jesus said unto him, why callest thou me good? But one that is God, what's the Commandment? Do not commit adultery airport with passports. Witness, not like your fraud, not don't don't deceive anybody and and get their money. For example, a mother by my father and mother and he answered the government answer, All to Jesus master, all these have I drifted on you? Then Jesus be holding him. Loved him and said unto him. One thing. Lapis gold. I went way. So whatsoever. I get to the poor and also have treasure in heaven. Come pick up the cross and follow me. And the young man was sad at that saying. And when are we agreed? Why? Because he had a great procession, you may be seated. Let's start with some general observations This was a fine young man.
He was a clean young, man. He was humble. He ran up to Jesus. He knelt down before him. He showed respect to the Great Master. Has he called Jesus? You're not a proud man and he had an eternal perspective. He wanted to know how we can get before the life. You have to think about it. Do you want it eternal life? I do. He didn't quite have it yet. Buddy, thought I'm on the right track. I'm on the right path, but I just need to do a little bit more to obtain eternal life. So I went to the to the Great Master, Jesus to find out what and what else do I need to do? To get eternal life.
Of course we can I store or salvation that very clear in the Bible. Salvation is by Grace not by works, very clear. We know that, but that was not the main problem of this young man. Look up, please.
Yes, he was wrong to think you can work to our only salvation for that was not his main problem is that was one of them. Not as me, his main problem was that he thought that his heart was somewhat good and he could produce good. You see, a sort of an understanding heart? He thought he was capable of Performing some because his heart was good. Not the works itself, but that he did actually produce something good today. That is fart, was capable of reaching a standard. Do before I go there, let's play. What would Jesus said in response? Because I don't want to get confused. Mark. 10:18 how did Jesus respond to this young, man? Jesus said why callest thou me good? There is dumb thick but one that is God, What you think now. Jesus is not saying by this. That is not good himself. Good. Jesus is not saved by this say is not dog, is that he's supposed to be good? Let me know. What is this song Man to focus? Not on him right now, the gospel because he needs to know his sin. First remember Bobby for gospel, he doesn't present himself as the savior of the world. Right, because he's not ready to hear it. He's not convicted of his sin. He think his heart is big enough to do something. He wants you to know life. He runs up to Jesus. What do I need to do. I've done some things that was to be salty. He's got something. What else do I need to do? Show me, Focus attention off of himself Jesus and back on him. Because it's not ready to hear the gospel. Jesus starts with some really easy, softball questions to him, to prove him a little bit. In Mark. 10 19, 20. Jesus says, Domino. What's the Commandments do not commit adultery, do not kill. Still got their false witness defraud, not honor, thy father, and mother. And I got him an answer to all these things for my youth. Jesus exciting to him, the Lord God relate to his neighbor. The so-called second table of the wall, for the shade on some outside with two tables. One has to do with man's responsibility to God the other man's responsibility to other men. So this guy said all the things that I don't you buy yourself. We'll talk about that just a moment. So if this man is feeling pretty good about himself, Jesus, what should I do this? Oh yes. I've done that. He's pretty feeling pretty good about himself right now. Hey, so far, so good, right. He's confident. But Jesus wasn't done. When is questioning. Was softball questions. What is Jesus Ortiz? Because he still thought he was good. He still thought he could obtain it, a Little Rock's up, just a little bit more, but I'm almost there I'm doing pretty good. I passed the test up to this Pharmacy. Mark 10:21. Then Jesus be holding his looks at the young man robbed him. Very important. Why is it important will see? Because what he has to say later on is motivated by his love that's important because his Ward may take you up on that. What that sounds pretty extreme know. It's motivated by the lower the price for the real condition of his soul. So make up about that. Jesus Behold Him nothing and then what came from its mouth was the expression of Jesus. Well, for this young man, one thing, don't like it Go by way. So what's your birth off? Have at dipson, the floor. And I shall treasure in heaven and take up the cross and follow me. What's the following is now? Do you understand this one thing? Think about it there many other points of the law regarding his responses to God. That is still there for Jumbo stick. Not the Lord. Thy God in vain will make a carbon image and address to keep the Sabbath apply to him. He doesn't talk about all of the rest of the one thing we got that one thing with the source of a sinful heart, So you just cut to the chase. that exposes the scent of his heart, he told him, give up all you have because they're giving a call you help. You give up your idol. Was his Idol, remember that? That was his Idol.
Macy's at Victory command. But this young man needed to hear that. That was the problem that stopped him. From needing Christ because he was not convinced of it, and he was pretty feeling good about himself, he was rude to other people.
but by trusting in his wealth, He was $9 for that was more important to him than God Jesus telling him. Repent, repent of your sins. Is that much as mentioned that stopped him from trysting place and then they speak spiritual after all, he said, give him up.
This man wouldn't care about heaven. He cared about his worldly possessions. It is true that that we love Treasures in Heaven, but it didn't help me with this man because he's terrible music about spiritual thing. Jesus said to his disciples, What up for yourselves? Treasures upon Earth, don't lay up Treasures on Earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal for yourselves. Treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through, nor steal, for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. I told me the account. This young man's treasure was on the earth as he wanted to keep it there. Jesus said, give it away. And Slice of Heaven was not interested in that. You see his production? Yeah, he said, I want eternal life but maybe but he fought too much. Too much of a call for me a little bit interested, but not too much.
You see, this young Jewish deli was a Jewish man because that's the first commandment. What is the first commandment Thou shalt have no other gods before me, not money, not mad. And not an elephant's repeated in Deuteronomy 6:4. 5, very familiar verse the Jewish small No. Hero Wonder of it. All I might be with your nearby Dollar Tree shut and closed case or just possessions he has Heavenly things. He didn't put God first. Love God. He's at. He's guilty. That's the point, the Christ trying to make. Do bigger notebook and your talk about going in the direction of eternal life. But he probably told the other laws, to because Jesus rested up the requirement, that would not commit adultery. Jesus, refined it to say, if you look at it. It hurts. You commit adultery in your heart. Do you control them for? They are because that was his main problem is made from was just, distant the one thing.
He said that he didn't kill anybody, but you just said you hate somebody, your heart, you're guilty of killing them. Has been pressing on that either. He got the same point is that he was coming. This this exact prevented from entering, the kingdom of God, is I do with his wealth. He's not rubbed off. With all the parts to me was not good. That's important. Jesus repeated the Jewish small, the New Testament saying that along with one of your neighbors are these play home Alone. The puppet Jesus is consistent with his Jewish religion. Was he the young man that was inconsistent. Why you see the world is spiritual, but we hope that someone special in your own way. Comparative Lee, the dog is absolute I told you take the Lord God and you compare yourself to other people and that's how you understand what?
But you don't cut the must regard because I was production. And so, when you go through a whole life thinking like this, rich young, man, I'm just stay. The course, I'm going to be okay. He also says that you should have known it in the Book of Psalms in the Old Testament, that repeatedly there is none that you was good. You see nothing that you was good and you talked to you was to be the first one. There are three points. I want to bring her out in my message this morning. First we must speak the truth and runs to Center. Think about the Jesus. Did we must speak the truth in love to Sinners. Benji will be holding him loved him. Think about this young man was offended, he walked away for asleep. Geez, why did you do that? You're not supposed to open people up. There said, you make me submit easier. Why did you have to tell him? So are you help? Maybe, maybe just how much you willing to give away, but that's less work this out, you know? How to become flexible sis? How do you need to repent of a sin and the only hope? That, that man will be saved and he repented if you try to make a bargain and let me tell you about these are tempted tempted, but by the grace of God, I will not do that by the grace of God. Some days, you make it so hard, why you make it so hard to become a Christian? Well, after prayer and counseling? Add to the word of God. I think this is what you need to hear, and I'm not going to change it so that you but you can come in your church. Because, the truth doesn't save you. Is that if you think that's all, I left that she wasn't mean to me. She did tell me that. And then you coming along. I have not loved you. The fetus mother Behold Him loved him and told him the truth.
I can be nice, just remembered be nice if we could not open. But you aren't really loves you or do. I want you to love me? Do I want you to come to the church? So I want you, you want to. I want my house to be filled know, that doesn't matter to me, what the business of pretending the world, so that people can trust price to be saved. That's all I come to you. The livingstones, this was post. Everything else is just religion.
a Christian School, sometimes we have to We have to speak the truth in love. Is that what Paul said? Bring you the truth in love you? Sing the. Is what Paul's, the brothers had a place you live up to the head of Christ by speaking. The truth in love. If you make a AutoZone shows, we don't do that. What people like us do. I'm not saying, I'm not saying to to be rude and to be a bore and to be me know, we have to know what the truth is. Speaking, the truth. I need to know the word of God and prayer. What do you need to hear? Electric speaking involved to tell you. You said, if I don't do that then I'm just been I'm not doing my job. That's important in Christians. We need to do it with each other as well. Builders that Jesus was very patient with his young man. As opposed to the Pharisee. Don't think about it now. It's always relevant appropriate. Always true to who the person was very, very precisely specifically. And personally, Do a bunch of religious people that trusted in her goodness. That's all they saw everything. I thought they were sons of Abraham and I have a ticket to Heaven because I'm special I will not repent and made children the truth of the government men ever, see any other people to help. He was born. He said that he was not. So with this young man, he was patient with him. He loved it.
Why it's appropriate that Jesus was because this was young man, he was not proud. Became humbly bow down, there's no fairies. Who did that. Even if he was a young man he was interested in spiritual things somewhat. He was humbled. He didn't think I saw everything. I normally know, he thought I'm sure that between a life. I need to do more, at least his mind, he was not sell satisfied with himself, you see? So he's not like the Pharisees.
But if you remained as he was at a Jesus, did tell him to repent, do you work very well after movies? Because he was on that time to do, good works at. So, when you got older, like a Pharisee, I'm going to make my Dawn longer. I'm going to pray publicly longer. I'm a give away money to become a religion Sprouts, carry that cannot be saved and sold. Jesus attention on him, was that when he was like, he knew he was not right with God. He was a sinner. He was an idolater, he loves his possessions and he was on the wrong path, as you just checked in there.
These Pages beholding him loved him. And so he said to them when things that don't like it. Jesus was convinced. He had to get across that message that you're lost.
The Bible says, Children of how hard it is for them, that trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God. This man was trusting in his riches already. Told you was I dolinger just hasn't shown that he is. God is watching this witches, he trusted his worldly, possessions and care about heaven, and care about laying stuff. Up shows part was Earthbound. What about you? What about you?
some here that have some interest in eternal life, some interest in forgiveness of sins, but what is your priority
What is your priority? Where is your treasure? Because where your treasure is your heart. Don't think that I could Parse it out and I can have it my way. I'd enter the kingdom of God. You can do that everything, anything you want to do, but if it's against scripture, you are acting in a way. It's a science. What the scripture says and are you put upon yourself so much estimation of yourself, then I'll get in the kingdom of God and I can help. My, I can have the world to or I can have something for my life to, that's not the way that Jesus. Told his disciples to become a disciple.
Checking retentions included turning from sin and becoming a true disciple of Christ, then Jesus Behold Him loved him. I said if he had one thing that I was walking there right now. So it's over the house. I get to the pool, and I'll try treasure in heaven and come take up the cross and follow me. And he was, so that that's saying and went we agreed, we had great possession. Already told you that he wasn't willing to give up. Possessions. He wanted when he went to waste our plea, but Jesus did. I don't lie say that you did up your possession. The repentance that is required of her loss is different for different people. Jesus. Never said that. Everybody has to sell everything to become a disciple but she did say that, but he did say buttock, you repent, your wife should reflect that retention, what does repentance mean? It's a change of mind, it's a change of directions. So you say, I repented of my sins. Okay. Let's see, the light. And that sing in the life of repentance is becoming a disciple. Take us to take up your cross and follow him. Everyone likes to dissect things. I like. That's why I don't like that. I'm a sooner, but I'm going to be Master over my schedule over my life.. What Jesus said to your pension is African horse. If you really repent of your sin, you see, and you changed before you're going in this direction. As soon as you're falling your lunch, before you finally, the devil, your part of the world is that direction and when you repent, you make you trust place and Jesus. As your lord, you go in a different direction to a person get out. Okay. Yeah I'm a sinner. I hate Jesus. I trust in Jesus.
Got that done. No, you haven't even begun because you were right, as bad as discipleship within the local church receipt. And so we were pension is shown in the light in the fruit. Do you have to play to the tree? Need to have fruits of repentance real fruit. Not same old, every honest person with me, I owe you but where is the repentance in the life? You see yes I want salvation, I am a sinner but is your wife changing its course and of her life changes course and means that your repentance was not real Because you're going in that direction, World devil fresh and zero tension change of the mind that very clear In this passage. but this young man and number, I could apply to anyone who's lost, You see this young man, he wasn't even going to talk about that.
Maybe a little bit, he wanted for like a little bit, but when he cover the cost of too much, where the weights are left it on the table, by Plato. Crito, thanks too high. I'm going to walk away so I didn't he walked away without without hearing the gospel because he what is it? You wanted to keep what he had. You know, I'm saying like you're gambling, check my possessions with me.
Some wings. Did you remember to go back to the Apostle Paul and I hope he experienced that later on. What do I mean? He was a Jewish unmelted like Paul. Put on noodles for back and forth. He sat at the feet of the million. He knew the world back and forth but the world never expose his first post test. I had not known since, but I don't accept the Lord. Jesus said, Thou shalt not covet. Same soon as this young man. The one thing covetousness, same thing for both of us, I was alive without the mall. One of my mind, I was alive, I was okay, we're having a Boston, I'm good, I do nothing. But wait, a few minutes, a large was full that he was playing. His eyes is on the ground. Spell guilty. What does the word blood work before I met the Lord? Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus or perhaps will the Raiders against the sink?
But when the commandant team, send me the Vibes and I dyed, another one gone to the Holy Spirit, told him that he was convicted. He died. And then was waiting for flight.
And the Commandment which was a change of life. I found to be unto death where the law is wholly into come in at 4 and just a good. You see the world? God, it's merely a reflection of God's holiness and perfect nip and foolish of him. The voice of stone that you were messing with your husband. Tell you sense that you are not good. Not holding that. You're saying that you're condemned the world. Hasn't done this work on you. If you're still alive on the wall that has faced, you're not dead and you're not ready to hear the bus. only then was our Pole position with our peers. As most others that trust in Christ will go to war with old school. Message to bring us unto Christ that we might be justified by faith. The world brings you to the front of the car but you still must have faith in Christ to be justified. In a teacher's, you accept makes you in the fuse, you with your DLC. If you will let the law kill you, slay, you able to close your mouth. And all the world. If I was guilty before, God, if you stop spending or not, part of your heart, to see if you start being honest with God, you did some things to clean up his life. You better watch your sisters point, but he was not willing to do that for you, believe me for the wifey, believe that you can do God, do the Lord Jesus Christ, but it just wasn't worth it enough. To get up at possessions and then to live for Christ to high stakes. What about you? What about you? We have many people who have lost this morning. Are you just like this, Rich? Young Ruler. Again you might not be rich, she might not be young. You might not have authority as a ruler. What is it true that you think that you're pretty good? Pretty good. Goonies R. Good enough to be accepted. Maybe you don't even think about. But maybe just think about Humanity on the way that I am.
Jesus love this young man, you wanted him to truly be saved. So we spoke the truth in love. He left them there, didn't say to him, I am the way, the truth, the life he didn't say to him, that means origin of Labor and heavy laden and I will give you rest. Saying that to that young man. Why? Because it is well before gospel, he don't need the gospel, a list of all have killed you. Gospel, unless you sent that money, right? He's all complete revamping a change and I'm going to follow Jesus, the two as you do. You are the second law of God, that brings the wrath of God upon you. I told you, that Jesus doesn't prescribe giving away everything to everybody. There's a man in the Bible cuz that kid and you know, it was very rich.
But you get used to not to sweat him to get up anything. The doctor just gave them the gospel.
Because probably God was dealing with him, all ready. When Jesus was walking along at a great blow to follow him. This magic is quite up a sycamore tree. You see? He was he wanted just like his young men. He was 15 for price. You see? And I can only assume the Bible going to say I can only assume he was to be prepared cuz she is all Jesus in the gospels come down. Full of trees that kids. So they should come to the end in the house. He was already prepared. He wasn't told anything he needed to give up.
but even though he wasn't told anything to give up, After he trusted Christ, truly he gave them. The Bible says, the whole board. He's talking to Jesus, that he is said to Jesus the health of my place. I get to the for you by picking anything. From any meds bypass activation. I restore him for full of Jesus said his him. This day is so they should come to this house for as much as he also was a son of Abraham, he would save just like Abraham. The spiritual father was saying, you say this is a fruit over pensions, he wasn't even told to repent, but his heart was changed and then you have genuine fruit. It's different for different people. But you have to think, what is your Idol? If you think I'm going to, I want possession of my life. I'm not going to relinquish them, not to give up on the lordship of my life to Jesus. You're on Shaky Ground.
But if you have dreams that your whole, how can I be your savior? You cannot, you cannot separate. The you can separate Jesus
Pictures of Miracle brought about by God then Jesus beholding him loved him and said of him, do things that don't lock is still on my way. So what's up with our house and give to the poor judgment heaven and come take up your cross and follow me and he will start at that thing and when we grieve great great, possessions, you see, even Jesus disciples were confused. They thought, Daddy was rich that God blessed him and a person who was blessed by God is not say who can see things. That's what they were thinking. But Jesus said it is easier for a camel to go through the eye. The small pin with a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God and they were stunned. As I was never safe among the ruling Party City. What do you make it very clear repentance is required to become a disciple is required for your horse to be prepared. To hear the gospel bus goes with. The only place is that controls straight, it's done by the power of God, in the Willing, soul in the humble soldier, in the person who guards allowed to work in him to do like a wheel. His good pleasure know, you can't be saying you can't repent. If you got the girls, you got me a struggle by yourself. You need to be willing and drug. Use power can make you willing. Does Benny has received him. Jesus power to become the sons of God becomes a Son of God, after conviction of sin. You believed on Jesus, cuz I just got to give you the power. You can resist. You can bust your possession. You're one up ahead of you want to hear it. Now, you want to push that your life will just eat a little bit, or a little bit to Jesus. But I will maintain the authority over my life. Keep your Authority. Keep your sense to, you see, you can't Jesus. Do not bargain with this young man. Like I might be tempted to do, maybe I can soften the message. If I'm not tell you what, I think you need to hear the people. I tried to be very personal. I try to think about the person Service, as I try to have Valley Symphony but contextually. And I think what is God trying to tell them? How can I do that? Vessel to tell them, and it's different for different people. Just the way that Jesus is a person in the New Testament, it comes to anyone else. I told you that she is a requirement. Did Nicodemus do well to the woman? Did not say that to any other person has very specific to that person's position but I do think I could decide what I will give up. I will decide what I think it's in and I will see how far I want to go in this Christian. Watch out. Doesn't sound like a committed person to the Lord. Jesus Christ. That's someone who wants salvation. Eternal life like his young men. You see, I bet it is worth to stop what he wanted. He wanted to throw away, I'm willing to 11 more in the Lord. Tell me she's is what else? What else? What else. But let me have my possessions. You say, you want to keep on one foot in the world, one foot in eternal life. if you think you could do that, that you just deceiving yourself,
Solar power consumed P save. Then you make it so hard. Jesus, Through the eye of a needle who can be saved. How can you put a big? A big metal. Is using a metaphor. He's telling you that guy's house to do this.
Good morning, it is impossible but not with God because God can break the hardest part that wants to just get a little bit of his life. 50 Cent just a little bit but as God work in the heart to stop at your persuasive and you're willing then it's God gets the glory. Who gave you that my pension will ring to turn from your sin. The world the devil at the Father's Place. God has all the glory salvation of the Lord, but he works through you. If you will give you
If you will be convicted.
and when you start bargaining,
You will lose, you can't bargain that Jesus made that very clear. As I said through this passage, we learn so many things and one is this, sometimes you leave the center of attention and you walk away, and let them be so. So sorry that were no other time. You didn't have Godly sorrow, but at least you knew he was a sitter short of the glory of God.
You can like come to place any room to take it or leave it so to speak with your heart. You want you want your possessions, you want to take a hold of your life. You don't want to follow the River of Life because it will be meaningless to you. Yeah. Because it was idle. What is your idol? Everybody has a knife. That's more important to them than God. That's a sin. That's a great decision. I showed that the first commandment Thou shalt have no other gods before me repeated in the Jewish term of love. The Lord thy God with all thy heart soul, mind repeating it by Jesus in the New Testament. It is the greatest more of the greatest sins as you ever were friends of that. Since whatever it is, it might not be money. Some people here, just want to have it if they have an attitude because I have an attitude, you ain't telling me what to do.
I like when you talk to me, okay, so you're in trouble. If you see, that's sure I know.
Because God and the Lord Jesus Christ must be the master of your life if you want to be safe. You want to do wrong to get Providence, directions to her control. Whatever. That might be. It might not be some perfectly that's in, but I just want that controls. You see, nobody tell me what to do. I don't like that. I don't like what the Bible says to be grateful, I can for you to be very, very congenial, very nice about it but you still want to do what you want to do and you're determined to do it.
Let me talk to a person lately, they know the will of God, but they're going to do it anyway. I am scared for that person. See that is sitting with a high hand, you know, that I don't I know this wrong. I know it's not God's will but I've been doing anyway. You can say so it's not so bad at all because I'm sorry, folks. That is latent conceived. Deliberate, send that kind of sins do not assume that God will forgive that do not assume that. That's that shows, no fear of God at all 0. Another person I talk to or I'm so interested in my soul, so which is my soul.
That was a few weeks ago. Now don't talk about all the things that this is what he saw his production was real to him but he kind of like well I'll be nice to have that nice not to bad judgment. But you know what? This is the present and the now
What, why am I going to? Is this my whole life and do the picture? You might want some of that stuff. Yeah, I need some forgiveness of sins. I don't have eternal life but you don't want.
