Magnificent 7 : week 7

Levi Lusko - Fresh Life Church

EASTER WEEKEND

But First, Death

John 11:17-26

Jesus gave Martha a ministry of truth.

Jesus gave Mary a ministry of crying with her.

I am God, and I have all the power, but I became man and can identify with you.

If life is hurting for you, you have a God who is hurting with you.

Grapple with the reality of death.

The resurrection is only necessary and possible because of death.

The only way to get you out of your grave was for Him to go to His. 

Death is our last enemy.

Death is: 

vicious

violent

vile

If we don't understand the bad news, we don't have context for the good news!

Jesus death was : 

voluntary

Vicarious

Victorious!!!!

Bring out what is in your kids, don't change what is in them.

He didn't just die for you, He dies as though He were you!

2 Corinthians 37:21

1 Corinthians 14

The power of the resurrection is not just for your eternity, it's for your whole journey!

He wants you to have life during life!

John 11:25

The resurrection is not an event, it is a person!

It's not just what He does, it's who He is!
