The parable of the lost sheep.

The year 2020 is quickly upon us. A new decade awaits us. We will face all types of seasons in these coming years, seasons of joy, and seasons of hardship. What will be our confidence going into these seasons?

At Christmas we are looking for to people coming over for the day. 2000 years ago a person came who would change the course of history.

Its Christmas 2019. But in Isaiah 9 life is pretty tough. Israel has left off following God and now there in trouble. But hope is on the way in the form of a child.

Sorry its a shortened track. Israel rejected God and asked for another king.

The Macedonians were begging to give generously of their money. But get this they were in extreme poverty and in a severe affliction! The gospel transforms everything.

Repentance, an old fashioned word, but yet so powerful. Gospel driven change brings gospel fruit of joy and comfort.

What do you think of with the word holy?

The message of reconciliation is powerful. God reconciles us through Christ, the old life has passed away and look all things are new.

Our earthly body is only a tent, a temporary dwelling. God has prepared fro us an eternal home to exist in. So what do we do in the meantime?

Paul says we don't lose heart. We don't lose heart as the Spirit gives us an eternal perspective of eternal glory.

The ministry of the Holy Spirit is a work of grace where He changes us moment by moment. As we behold Jesus the Spirit works deep in us to love Christ.

Paul is contending against false teachers in Corinth. He's calling for gospel clarity.

Jesus meets the rich young ruler who lacks just one thing.

Forgiveness! Its massive. We're hurt so much, but the gospel gives the power to forgive.

Gospel of faithfulness. Paul defends his faithfulness from the perspective of the faithfulness of Jesus within him.

The prodigal son and the older brother both have the same problem. They've don't love the father. Jesus shows us our Heavenly Father who with relentless love pursues us with compassion and grace.

We will face affliction in this world. God is the God of comfort during our afflictions. He is to be worshiped as our glorious creator who engages in all of our life.
