[4051.82 --> 4053.90] We're here through the doors
[4053.90 --> 4054.48] Of grace
[4054.48 --> 4056.38] And so we praise the Lord
[4056.38 --> 4058.32] That he saw fit
[4058.32 --> 4059.82] In his kindness
[4059.82 --> 4060.84] And his mercy
[4060.84 --> 4062.78] To include us
[4062.78 --> 4063.72] In Christ
[4063.72 --> 4065.12] And to fill us
[4065.12 --> 4066.42] With his power
[4066.42 --> 4069.02] The one thing
[4069.02 --> 4069.94] That is required
[4069.94 --> 4072.22] For this resurrection life
[4072.22 --> 4073.14] Paul makes very clear
[4073.14 --> 4073.68] Doesn't he?
[4074.18 --> 4074.56] He says
[4074.56 --> 4076.14] By grace you have been saved
[4076.14 --> 4077.14] Through
[4077.14 --> 4079.26] Faith
[4079.26 --> 4081.74] What we are commanded to do
[4081.74 --> 4083.12] What we are invited to do
[4083.12 --> 4085.12] Is to receive the gift
[4085.12 --> 4086.98] To take hold of Jesus
[4086.98 --> 4087.84] And I think the best way
[4087.84 --> 4088.66] To translate faith
[4088.66 --> 4089.66] In contemporary language
[4089.66 --> 4090.72] Is actually trust
[4090.72 --> 4092.80] You give Jesus your trust
[4092.80 --> 4094.56] His way for life
[4094.56 --> 4095.60] Becomes your way for life
[4095.60 --> 4096.92] His will becomes your will
[4096.92 --> 4098.28] You follow in the pattern
[4098.28 --> 4100.00] That Jesus leaves for us
[4100.00 --> 4101.16] In his life and ministry
[4101.16 --> 4101.50] And you say
[4101.50 --> 4102.64] That's the path for me
[4102.64 --> 4104.98] That's the way of life
[4104.98 --> 4106.46] That's where I'm going to find
[4106.46 --> 4107.36] The life of the resurrection
[4107.36 --> 4109.84] Tim Keller
[4109.84 --> 4110.74] In his ministry
[4110.74 --> 4112.76] Has famously said that
[4112.76 --> 4113.78] For many modern people
[4113.78 --> 4115.00] Especially western people
[4115.00 --> 4116.40] Accepting Jesus
[4116.40 --> 4117.74] Requires a lot of humility
[4117.74 --> 4119.00] And he says that
[4119.00 --> 4120.00] Because it requires
[4120.00 --> 4121.10] That we need to admit
[4121.10 --> 4121.86] And this is what's hard
[4121.86 --> 4122.60] For western people
[4122.60 --> 4123.70] We need to admit
[4123.70 --> 4125.36] That we cannot save ourselves
[4125.36 --> 4126.50] By our own means
[4126.50 --> 4129.20] Your intellect
[4129.20 --> 4130.94] Your strength
[4130.94 --> 4132.06] Your money
[4132.06 --> 4133.92] Cannot save you
[4133.92 --> 4136.48] All the energy we have
[4136.48 --> 4137.10] Within us
[4137.10 --> 4138.20] Cannot save us
[4138.20 --> 4139.32] It is receiving
[4139.32 --> 4140.24] The gift of grace
[4140.24 --> 4141.56] Through the finished work
[4141.56 --> 4142.60] Of Jesus on the cross
[4142.60 --> 4143.50] That brings us
[4143.50 --> 4144.14] Into the family
[4144.14 --> 4144.82] Of the resurrection
[4144.82 --> 4146.82] And that takes humility
[4146.82 --> 4148.42] And perhaps you're here
[4148.42 --> 4149.18] For the first time
[4149.18 --> 4150.10] You're hearing about Jesus
[4150.10 --> 4150.78] For the first time
[4150.78 --> 4152.26] I want to invite you
[4152.26 --> 4153.28] To explore further
[4153.28 --> 4154.86] I want you to have
[4154.86 --> 4156.02] Conversations with believers
[4156.02 --> 4156.74] In our church
[4156.74 --> 4157.92] To take seriously
[4157.92 --> 4158.58] The promise
[4158.58 --> 4159.18] The gift
[4159.18 --> 4160.44] And the responsibility
[4160.44 --> 4161.82] To respond in faith
[4161.82 --> 4163.34] To what Paul is saying here
[4163.34 --> 4166.00] But let me finish
[4166.00 --> 4166.92] With how Paul finishes
[4166.92 --> 4167.64] This passage
[4167.64 --> 4169.20] He moves from us
[4169.20 --> 4169.68] Being dead
[4169.68 --> 4170.12] In our sins
[4170.12 --> 4170.94] And transgressions
[4170.94 --> 4171.72] Following the ways
[4171.72 --> 4172.24] Of the world
[4172.24 --> 4172.86] To saying
[4172.86 --> 4173.52] You've been raised
[4173.52 --> 4174.08] With Christ
[4174.08 --> 4174.90] You've been made alive
[4174.90 --> 4175.30] With Christ
[4175.30 --> 4175.86] You've been seated
[4175.86 --> 4176.44] With Christ
