Have you seen His glory?
Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. (John 1:12-14)
“The Word became flesh...” (John 1:14)
I. When you know Jesus you’ve come in contact glory.
“…we have seen His glory, glory as of the only Son of God.” (John 1:14)
“These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” (John 20:31)
II. If you know Jesus, you know the glory of His grace.
"...full of grace...." (John 1:15)
III. If you know Jesus you know the glory of his truth.
"...full of...truth." (John 1:15)
“’We are fighting a holy war, and this time we are going to win.’ ” - Jerry Falwell
“Let’s broach a sensitive example but one we simply can’t skirt around, as it is the leading moral question of our generation—human sexuality. And remember as you read this, I’m a pastor, not a politician. My goal is to journey with your soul on its way to healing in God, not to legislate anything. I don’t expect secularists to live like Christians. As Paul put it, ‘What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church?’ The move of the Spirit is inward to conviction, not outward to critique. I’m not trying to critique the culture, much less control it; I’m trying to flourish a counterculture.”
