[1590.64 --> 1593.74] That doesn't mean to say we don't say things are wrong. |
[1593.74 --> 1598.02] But we don't stand there from lofty perchers looking down on everybody. |
[1603.22 --> 1606.38] Am I living my life in line with the gospel? |
[1607.28 --> 1611.92] Where I know I'm profoundly saved through only Jesus' grace. |
[1612.44 --> 1615.56] And out of that, out of joy and love of Jesus, |
[1615.56 --> 1621.46] I obey so that I can bless others and help them find that same life. |
[1627.04 --> 1629.46] I think all of us need to feel valued. |
[1629.58 --> 1630.78] All of us need to feel loved. |
[1631.20 --> 1633.12] We all need to feel like we belong. |
[1633.12 --> 1636.58] And if we don't find that through the gospel, |
[1636.98 --> 1638.12] we'll find it elsewhere. |
[1638.46 --> 1639.48] But here's the problem. |
[1639.94 --> 1641.90] Elsewhere never works. |
[1642.18 --> 1643.80] It's an empty place to go. |
[1644.08 --> 1647.94] The gospel is the only place you'll find what you really need. |
[1649.22 --> 1649.92] God's grace. |
[1649.92 --> 1658.06] And that's why Paul reminds Peter of the gospel. |
[1658.40 --> 1660.42] He doesn't simply attack him on his racism. |
[1664.12 --> 1667.22] He knows that Peter needs to be reminded of the gospel |
[1667.22 --> 1669.06] because that's where he's misaligned. |
[1670.00 --> 1671.68] It doesn't just become a fight over an issue. |
[1671.68 --> 1676.28] He knows it's a change of heart |
[1676.28 --> 1678.46] that we surrender again to the saving work of Jesus |
[1678.46 --> 1681.86] again and again and again and again every day |
[1681.86 --> 1683.60] until you quit breathing. |
[1687.26 --> 1689.64] The gospel is to be received. |
[1690.12 --> 1691.72] It's not to be achieved. |
[1692.64 --> 1695.22] It's based on, it's not based on your record, |
[1695.30 --> 1696.20] but on Jesus' record. |
[1696.60 --> 1698.68] And therefore the gospel should be the end |
[1698.68 --> 1701.24] of the search for identity and meaning |
[1701.24 --> 1703.86] and value because the search is over. |
[1704.28 --> 1705.92] Don't search for things anymore. |
[1706.18 --> 1708.46] Let the gospel penetrate you more and more |
[1708.46 --> 1710.70] the entirety of your life. |
[1711.64 --> 1713.26] And then rest in that. |
[1715.74 --> 1716.90] And live in that. |
[1718.24 --> 1720.34] And that's why Paul in the end says, |
[1721.22 --> 1724.22] he says, therefore I no longer live. |
[1725.74 --> 1728.44] It is Christ who lives in me. |
[1729.74 --> 1731.10] I'm not alive anymore. |
[1732.18 --> 1735.30] Christ is who lives in me and through me. |
[1736.18 --> 1738.18] And then you live in gratitude to him |
[1738.18 --> 1741.22] for he is your life. |
[1741.46 --> 1743.10] He's not an add-on. |
[1743.34 --> 1744.76] He is your life. |
[1744.76 --> 1751.54] And then we get to share that liberation with the world, |
[1751.70 --> 1755.00] with Clayton, with our families, |
[1755.50 --> 1759.18] with our friends, our wives, our husbands, |
[1759.50 --> 1761.40] our community, everywhere. |
[1761.86 --> 1766.50] Because that's what gospel living looks like. |
[1766.50 --> 1778.24] Father God, we are so grateful that you saved us. |
[1778.24 --> 1782.42] We are so grateful that you sent your son |
[1782.42 --> 1785.18] to pay the price for our brokenness |
[1785.18 --> 1785.84] and our sins. |
[1785.84 --> 1790.80] And Lord, may we never, never live out a gospel plus life. |
[1791.06 --> 1794.12] May we live only in the centrality of who you are |
[1794.12 --> 1795.46] and that you are our savior. |
[1796.22 --> 1798.38] May we be a people who take the gospel |
[1798.38 --> 1799.92] into every part of our lives |
[1799.92 --> 1801.82] and see the change fall off. |
[1802.10 --> 1804.12] May we see our relationships change, |
[1804.42 --> 1805.58] our attitudes change, |
[1805.92 --> 1807.16] our habits change. |
[1809.56 --> 1811.68] And may people see in us then |
[1811.68 --> 1812.74] you. |
[1813.98 --> 1815.44] You who are our life. |
[1816.74 --> 1818.32] And for that we praise you in Jesus' name. |
[1818.32 --> 1818.78] Amen. |
