Sermon Outline for Sunday, January 7, 2007
I am excited about a new sermon series for the month of January entitled "Life Upgrade". As we begin a new year, one of the things I believe God wants us to understand is that our lives can be better than they currently are. Like an upgrade to a better rental car, theater seat or computer software version, the life upgrade God has planned for us requires us to accept the offer and then be prepared to make some changes in our plans. Our theme verse for this series is John 10:10, and the first sermon in this series is entitled "Is It Right For You?" Below are the main points and some of the scripture references from the first sermon.
There is something better than our current life. (John 10:10)
Having a better life requires us to be obedient followers of God. (Deuteronomy 28:1-14)
Making a choice for or against obedience to God cannot be avoided. (1 Kings 18:21), (Joshua 24:15)
Choosing obedience to God leads to blessing, but not choosing obedience to God leads to curses. (Deuteronomy 28:15-20)
Now is the time to choose the upgraded life. (Deuteronomy 30:19)
If you or someone you know and love needs to upgrade their lives in 2007, then invite them to hear this sermon series. For information about obtaining CD's or DVD's of this sermon or sermon series, contact Ernie Holder or call the church office at 910-892-7855.
