Seeing God is about the gospel. So Paul said of his calling that he was "put aside for the good news of God" (Rom. 1: 1). The gospel is uplifting news from God and about God. Furthermore, Paul's central goal or desire is to lecture the gospel to individual Christians, "I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome" (Rom. 1:15). For us to be firm in confidence, fill in confidence, we need to hear the gospel again and again. Before we talk about evangelism of unbelievers, we should be anxious to lecture the gospel to ourselves, the "unevangelized regions" in our souls.
This equivalent gospel will fuel our aspiration like Paul to arrive at unbelievers, all countries, with the saving message of Christ—"I make it my ambition to preach the gospel" (Rom 15:20). At that point Paul gave Isaiah 52:15 as the reason for that desire, "they shall see things that have not been told them" (ASD). They need to see what christ's identity is and what he did on the cross for an individual to have salvation (2 Cor 4: 4, 6). Furthermore, we see in Isa. 52:15 the nearby association of seeing and hearing. They won't check whether nobody advises them. So we lecture the good news of Christ (2 Cor. 4: 5). That is the instrument that God will use, as the Holy Spirit opens the eyes of the ignorant concerning see the brilliance of God in the gospel.
However, before they can see that the gospel is uplifting news, they should have an individual experience with the awful information on the genuine state of man on account of wrongdoing. All things considered, how is it possible that they would come to know the Savior in the event that they didn't see that they required a Savior — that they were corrupt, messy, and meriting God's judgment? Before we can see the excellence of what Christ did, we should initially see the spoiled state of the human heart. Furthermore, that is the thing that we found to a limited extent 3 of our lesson arrangement when Isaiah said "Poor me!" (Isa. 6: 5).
Also, Isaiah saw himself right since he saw the brilliance of God's heavenliness. We can just see the profundity of our concern with our own wrongdoing on the off chance that we can see what god's identity is. You will see that you are deceptive on the off chance that you see the incredible unwaveringness of God. You will see you are messy in the event that you see the unblemished messiness of God. You will see the contempt in your heart in the event that you can see the profundity of God's adoration. You will see you are a terrible individual in the event that you see the integrity of God.
Viewing/Seeing God's Salvation
On the off chance that there could be no alternate route for us to be purged from our foulness and to be considered honorable before God however through Christ and how he helped us on the cross, to whom will we presently look? What's more, why should we tell individuals they should look as well? Like John, the Baptist, numerous individuals took a gander at him, yet when Jesus came, he said to individuals, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world" (John 1:29 CSB)!
You miscreant, take a gander at Christ and what he did on the cross for you! "And as Moses lifted up the brazen serpent in the wilderness, even so, must the Son of Man be lifted up [he was lifted up when he was crucified, and even more so when he was resurrected and ascended into heaven], that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life"(John 3: 14-15 KJV). On the off chance that you look to Christ, that is the thing that confidence implies. Seeking Jesus for your life and salvation. "For this is the will of my Father, that every one that beholdeth the Son, and believeth on him, should have eternal life" (John 6:40 KJV).
You miscreant, messy before God, where are you looking? Do you take a gander at your own attempts to be spotless before God? Do you presently acknowledge how absurd is that? Do you take a gander at your ethical resume and say to God, "Take a gander at my work, take a gander at my achievements!" Your ethical resume is bankrupt, how might you say you can pay your obligation to God! Is it accurate to say that you are taking a gander at your goals or assurance or vows to attempt to carry on with a perfect existence with God? What perseverance would you be able to rely on in your own assurance? Look to Christ — his ideal exemplary nature and his completed work on the cross for you.
Methods for Grace
You were changed over — you abandoned obscurity to light — when you turned your eyes to Christ. Also, in the event that you are as of now a Christian, continue to look to Jesus. That is Christian development or purification: "We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit"(2 Cor. 3:18 CSB). Who, what, are we hoping to get what we think we need that is truth be told in us again on account of Christ.
You take a gander at cash, you take a gander at what you do in the service, you take a gander at others who are not your better half, you take a gander at your unbeliever relationship since you are redirecting your perspective on Christ. Continue to look to Jesus. Focus on Jesus.
Also, God utilizes so-called "methods for beauty" to help us keep fixed on Christ. Like this corporate love, we have today. Do you figure it will help you in the event that you are missing for seven days, or, at least two? You will miss singing the wonders of the beauty of God in our corporate singing. You will miss being driven in petitions by our congregation older folks. You will miss hearing resoundingly the public perusing of Scripture. You will miss proclaiming the Word. You say it's OK on YouTube, however you realize it's totally different than you're tuning in to your minister with your siblings and sisters in Christ here than you are lying on the couch, and tuning in to YouTube and there are Shopee promotions, and you can stop on the off chance that you don't care for what you're hearing or you're exhausted. You will see Christ when you hear the expression of Christ.
As your minister, alongside your different evangelists, we will put forth a valiant effort to help you see Jesus in Scripture — from Genesis to Revelation. So we anticipate that you should likewise would your best — not the befuddled care and where to go — to take a gander at him in the proclaiming of the Word. Statutes are likewise methods for effortlessness. Absolution implies elegance. Ideally, we can be purified through the water once more, and that will not occur in the event that we don't share the gospel to other people, and welcome our companions here to our love administrations — and in case you're an adherent and haven't been absolved, converse with us church seniors. Submersion isn't just a method for elegance to be purified through water, yet in addition for us to recall our immersion, the importance of our absolution, to see the noticeable exhibit of the significance of Christ's demise and restoration and how we turned out to be essential for it.
The Lord's Supper additionally implies beauty. On our family night one week from now, we will do that. Try not to miss it. Try not to mess with it. Try not to avoid the Lord's Supper. A Christian individual from a congregation in Pampanga asked me for counsel. His folks chasten him since he gets back home late when there is Lord's Supper. He would not like to be missed. It's significant on the grounds that. I keep thinking about whether we view that appropriately, or become acclimated to it. As you take a gander at the bread and drink, take a gander at the body and blood of Christ that was shed to make you clean before God.
Furthermore, ordinary, you have in your grasp the most remarkable methods for the elegance of the Lord. The Word of God in Scripture. You can't see Christ and what he did on the cross on the off chance that you don't open the Bible every day. This week, go along with us in perusing the book of Ezra. However, we won't take a gander at Ezra and what he did. Christ and what he did is the thing that we will take a gander at as we read that story. Since the Bible — which we sing, implore, read, and tune in to in the proclaiming of the Word, and ruminate over every day — is a mirror through which we can see the sacredness of God, the messiness that is in our souls, and the salvation that God has created. Christ for us.
Brethren and sisters, as we separate later, as we get back to our particular homes, as we face our day-by-day work or the undertakings of life once more, consistently ask yourself, "Whom will you look to? Who would it be advisable for you to take a gander at? " You know the appropriate response. You know.
