Abundant Living

Jesus came with a purpose.

He Came To Bring Us Life

John 10:7-10
Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to  you, I am the door of the sheep.  (8) All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. (9) I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.  (10) The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to  destroy.  I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

 

Two Designs Upon Our Lives…

  • The Design of Devastation

             *The design of the thief is concealed.

             *The immediate pleasures are highlighted.

             * The inevitable wreckage  is hidden.

 

  • The Design of the Thief is Comprehensive

     

    *The thief is devoted to total devastation.

              *The thief is intentional about total devastation.

 

  • The Design of Delight

      *The design of Jesus is abundant–eternal life.

                * The design of Jesus is simple–knowledge of life.

 

Two Responses With Our Lives…

  • Enter by the Door.

                 *The door is personable.

                 *The door is singular.

 

  • Enjoy Christ Provision.

         * Enjoyment of Christ provision demands repentant hearts.

                   * Enjoyment of Christ’s provision demands renewed desires.

 

Psalms 34:8
Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts Him!
