Pastor Stefan Ras will be preaching from the book of Luke Chapter 9, Verses 21 to 26.
The title of the message is “Self-denial – Part 1”.
For a born-again believer, self-denial is to deny the following:
1) Our own wisdom – God’s wisdom is so far above what we could ever begin to think, that our wisest words, thoughts, comments are as foolishness to Him. We cannot even truly understand the most basic of concepts, our own salvation, never mind such concepts as the trinity or His omniscience.
2) Our own righteousness – the Bible says there 2 types of righteousness, one from man and one from God. Man’s righteousness is never going to be enough to get us into Heaven, only the righteousness we can find in Jesus Christ will ever be sufficient.
3) Our will – Jesus Christ submitted His will to God the Father. If we are striving to be more like Christ, surely we should, even more, deny our will and submit to the will of the Father.
4) Our self-confidence – we did nothing to earn our salvation and we can do nothing to keep it. We only trust in the Grace, the Mercy and the Goodness of God in all things. We must not think ourselves to be something, when all we are is what God has, by His Grace and Mercy, given to us.
5) We must deny our own passion – we justify our actions because we are passionate about them, especially when we are in sin. We need to let go of our passions and turn to the passion that Christ has – to save the lost.
We are the representatives of Christ at all times in all places, so we must always reflect His character.
