[1174.54 --> 1175.68] and our own tendencies |
[1175.68 --> 1177.54] towards being consumerist, |
[1177.62 --> 1178.26] being too busy, |
[1178.58 --> 1179.84] trying to find self-worth |
[1179.84 --> 1180.74] in our own achievements, |
[1180.98 --> 1182.30] instead of looking to God |
[1182.30 --> 1183.36] for guidance and truth. |
[1183.36 --> 1185.48] We must be reminded |
[1185.48 --> 1187.12] that we look to Christ |
[1187.12 --> 1188.20] for our salvation, |
[1188.80 --> 1190.48] not our own achievements, |
[1190.84 --> 1192.14] not our own holiness. |
[1192.82 --> 1193.10] Why? |
[1193.46 --> 1195.14] Because while we were |
[1195.14 --> 1195.78] still sinners, |
[1196.04 --> 1197.72] while we are still sinners, |
[1198.08 --> 1199.58] Christ died for us. |
[1199.84 --> 1201.56] That is the gospel message. |
[1203.50 --> 1203.96] And second, |
[1204.32 --> 1206.12] we reflect the light |
[1206.12 --> 1207.48] of Christ together. |
[1208.38 --> 1210.22] You do not do this alone. |
[1210.22 --> 1211.10] Christianity, |
[1211.68 --> 1212.94] our identity as Christians |
[1212.94 --> 1214.10] and followers of Christ |
[1214.10 --> 1215.52] is always in the plural. |
[1215.88 --> 1217.06] It is the followers |
[1217.06 --> 1218.20] of Christ. |
[1218.56 --> 1219.86] And whenever Paul refers |
[1219.86 --> 1220.54] to you |
[1220.54 --> 1222.00] in his epistles, |
[1222.12 --> 1222.96] in his letters, |
[1223.56 --> 1224.44] it is y'all. |
[1224.94 --> 1226.54] It is not you singular. |
[1227.50 --> 1228.58] As much as you are |
[1228.58 --> 1229.56] important to God |
[1229.56 --> 1231.10] and that He saved you |
[1231.10 --> 1232.54] in your individual life, |
[1233.28 --> 1234.60] He has called us |
[1234.60 --> 1236.06] y'all together. |
[1236.34 --> 1237.38] We really need that |
[1237.38 --> 1238.72] in our Canadian English too. |
[1239.18 --> 1239.84] It's y'all. |
[1240.42 --> 1241.22] It's not just you. |
[1241.68 --> 1242.66] We do this together. |
[1243.06 --> 1243.70] Whether it be |
[1243.70 --> 1244.94] the ministries we serve |
[1244.94 --> 1245.84] in through our church, |
[1246.18 --> 1246.80] small groups, |
[1246.96 --> 1247.36] fellowship, |
[1248.00 --> 1248.50] taught rom, |
[1248.62 --> 1249.22] story time, |
[1249.36 --> 1249.78] pickleball, |
[1249.90 --> 1250.26] volleyball, |
[1250.94 --> 1251.94] can't leave out soccer, |
[1252.34 --> 1252.48] right? |
[1252.52 --> 1253.50] We still have that trophy. |
[1254.34 --> 1254.70] Prayer, |
[1255.26 --> 1255.62] worship, |
[1255.88 --> 1256.60] all the things |
[1256.60 --> 1257.38] that we saw today |
[1257.38 --> 1258.42] even in our slideshow. |
[1258.80 --> 1259.62] Or the ministries |
[1259.62 --> 1260.68] we partake in |
[1260.68 --> 1262.02] outside our church building, |
[1262.38 --> 1263.60] caring for those in need, |
[1263.88 --> 1264.60] being present |
[1264.60 --> 1265.42] for our family |
[1265.42 --> 1266.08] and friends, |
[1266.20 --> 1267.92] like really being present. |
[1267.92 --> 1269.98] not the looking |
[1269.98 --> 1270.88] at our phones |
[1270.88 --> 1271.64] and screens |
[1271.64 --> 1271.94] and going, |
[1272.06 --> 1272.14] yeah, |
[1272.16 --> 1272.56] I'm listening. |
[1273.46 --> 1274.28] But really, |
[1274.40 --> 1275.44] with our whole lives, |
[1275.66 --> 1276.22] our minds, |
[1276.34 --> 1276.84] our hearts, |
[1277.48 --> 1278.42] being attentive |
[1278.42 --> 1280.76] and being present |
[1280.76 --> 1281.68] for our family, |
[1282.28 --> 1283.06] for our friends |
[1283.06 --> 1284.44] and those in need. |
[1285.16 --> 1286.06] Just as much, |
[1286.44 --> 1287.52] just as much |
[1287.52 --> 1288.72] as we are devoted |
[1288.72 --> 1289.30] to Christ |
[1289.30 --> 1290.28] with our whole beings, |
[1290.62 --> 1291.34] we are devoted |
[1291.34 --> 1292.04] to one another |
[1292.04 --> 1292.96] with our whole beings. |
[1293.76 --> 1293.96] Yes, |
[1294.00 --> 1294.78] we come up short, |
[1295.26 --> 1296.42] but that is the calling |
[1296.42 --> 1297.44] that we are called to. |
[1297.44 --> 1300.36] And lastly, |
[1300.88 --> 1303.42] it's not by our own |
[1303.42 --> 1303.84] shiny, |
