<br> "TEMPTATION."
|
|
<br>I. DIVERSE TEMPTATIONS.
|
|
<br>A. What is meant by temptation?
|
|
<br>1. Any situation in life that draws me from my walk in the Spirit, into my flesh.
|
|
<br>2. It is thus a proving of my faith.
|
|
<br>B. The diverse forms it takes.
|
|
<br>1. My greatest temptation comes when I drive.
|
|
<br>a. A driver that pokes in the fast lane.

<br> "THE TESTING OF OUR FAITH"
|
|
<br>PSA 34:19 Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
|
|
<br>I. WE EXPERIENCE MANY DIFFERENT TESTINGS IN LIFE.
|
|
<br>A. The tiles that were used on the nose cone of the space shuttle were subjected to all kinds of severe testings.
|
|
<br>1. The purpose of the tests was not to destroy the tiles but to to prove their worth.

<br> "BECOMING MATURE"
|
|
<br>I. THAT YE MAY BE PERFECT.
|
|
<br>A. Jesus said, "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect."
|
|
<br>1. The Greek word telios which is translated perfect when relating to a sacrifical animal meant that it was fit to be offered as a sacrifice to God.
|
|
<br>2. When used of a scholar, it meant mature.
|
|
<br>3. When used of a man meant to be of full age.

<br> "SIN"
|
|
<br>Intro: Each of us face powerful forces and pressures to sin. My inherent weaknesses, the daily pressures. God has made available to me His resources stronger than any force. Sin is an act, a choice of my will. Sin (Greek & English).
|
|
<br>I. SIN, ITS BEGINNING: "LUST."
|
|
<br>A. The word means strong desire, through use it has been limited to desire of one thing.

<br> DOERS OF THE WORD.
|
|
<br>I. "BE YE DOERS OF THE WORD."
|
|
<br>A. Hearing alone does not justify.
|
|
<br>1. Christ said "He that hath my command..."
|
|
<br>2. Rom. 2:13, Jews mistaken notion.
|
|
<br>a. Just having the law doesn't save.
|
|
<br>B. Our actions, not our words are counted.
|
|
<br>1. Parable, Matt. 21:28-32.
|
|
<br>2. Matt. 7:21.
|
|
<br>C. Just having full Gospel message is not enough.
|
