<div class="SSN_title">TROUBLED HEARTS.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_rnum">I. LET NOT YOUR HEARTS BE TROUBLED.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">A. The reason He said this to them is their hopes for the Kingdom of God are soon going to be dashed.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. The whole while they had been following Him, they were expecting Him to establish His kingdom on the earth at any moment.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. They had according to the words of Peter, "Forsaken all to follow Him."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. He had tried to tell them that He was going to suffer death at the hands of sinful men, but would rise again the third day, but it just didn't sink in.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. He knew when they saw Him die on the cross and His body put in the tomb, they were going to be dismayed and troubled.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">B. Their hearts were troubled because He had been talking about going away from them.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. They had come to depend and to rely on Him.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. There was always love and excitement around Him.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. Having been with Him for three years, they could not imagine life without Him.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">C. One of the most common causes for troubled hearts is the uncertainty of the future.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. There are many people who die a thousand deaths fearing one.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. How will I survive, how will I get by?</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. Yesterday is gone, I do not worry much about that unless my deeds yesterday may come back to haunt me tomorrow.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. But it is tomorrow that gives me great concern.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_rnum">II. THE ANSWER FOR THE TROUBLED HEART.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">A. Believe in Me. He said, "You believe in God believe also in Me."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. He is saying, "Trust Me."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. The cure for a troubled heart is always trust in Jesus.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">B. Looking forward to the glorious future. "In My Father's house are many mansions, I go to prepare a place for you."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. He had been telling them that He was going away, now He is telling them why He is going away.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. He is going to prepare a place for them in His Father's house.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. David had spoken about the Father's house, "And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. Their tomorrows were going to be very bright with excitement.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">5. Their futures were secured.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">6. He had told them not to worry about tomorrow, what they were going to eat, drink or wear, that their Father knew all about them, and would take care of their tomorrows.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">7. Heathens worried about such things, but our Father fed the birds and clothed the fields, and surely He would take care of all of their needs.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">C. Let not your heart be troubled, I will come again to get you and to take you to My Father's house that you might be with Me forever.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Surely the hope of every believer is that of eternal life in the beauty, love and joy in the kingdom of God.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Someone has said, "When the outlook is bad, try the uplook."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">D. He will pray that the Father will give them another Comforter, to abide with them forever.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. The word Comforter in Greek is "paracleton" which means one who comes alongside to help.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. I have been alongside of you helping you for the last three years, now I will ask the Father to give you the Holy Spirit who will come alongside of you and help you.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. When He comes He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance the things I have said to you.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. We read so many times how that later they remembered the words of Jesus.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Jhn',2,22);">JOH 2:22</a> When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Jhn',12,16);">JOH 12:16</a> These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and [that] they had done these things unto him.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Act',11,15 );">ACS 11:15</a> And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Act',11,16 );">ACS 11:16</a> Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">E. He will not leave them comfortless. Here the Greek word is "orphanous" from which we get our English word orphan. I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. I am not deserting you.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. I will take care of you, whatever you need, just ask the Father in My name, and He will give it to you.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">F. The Father loves you and will manifest Himself to you.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Note we now have the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit with us.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. The Holy Spirit alongside to help.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. The Son has promised to come to them that they would not be as orphans.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. And the Father who loves them will manifest Himself to them.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">G. He and the Father will come and make their abode with us.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. They will come and live in us.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. The heavens of heavens cannot contain Him, yet He lives within my heart.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. Our bodies have become the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in us.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. The triune God lives in me. If God be for us, who can be against us?</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">5. John said, "Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">H. Let not your heart be troubled for, "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Paul wrote to the Philippians about the peace that passed human understanding.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Jesus was at perfect peace with the Father and thus was at perfect peace with Himself.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">3. You can never have peace with yourself until you have peace with God.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. This peace that He gives to you is not as the world gives.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level4">a. The world can often have peace for a moment, but it quickly fades away.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level4">b. Look at how quickly the joy of the world fades.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level4">c. Look at how fickle the love of the world is.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level4">d. You can be the world's darling today, and its goat tomorrow.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_rnum">III. "LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED, NEITHER LET IT BE AFRAID."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">A. This is now a command of Jesus to His followers, do not worry and do not fear.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">B. What does that mean if you are worried or are fearful?</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. You have a lack of trust in His words.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. You are not yet secure in His love, for perfect love casts out all fear.</div>
