December 3, 2023 - The Sham Trials of Jesus

Many in our world hate Jesus and His followers

Persecution is to be expected – Jesus warned us! John 15: 18 & 20

So many get off the Jesus train at this point

The American Jesus is a “give me what I want Jesus”, the soft cushy life, it’s all about ME!

This is a FALSE GOSPEL – it is not about us, but Him!

The “give me” sells, it appeals to our will and our way; folks that is the flesh!

Many today are being persecuted and dying for their faith

We must deal with the REALITY of persecution

How will you RESPOND when it comes to your house?

REALIZE there are rewards to persecution
- A full dependance on God, a deep degree of fellowship with the Living God
- The PRESENCE of God: I will trust in the Lord until I die attitude!

Jesus is real, and every human must deal with Him

Jesus is alive; His resurrection is the hope of humanity

* What will you do with Jesus who is called the Christ? *

Is there room in your heart for Christ to write His story?
