iSERMON OUTLINE:

The Christian Life for 2008

Speaker: Pastor Lowell Perkins
January 6, 2008
Sunday Morning Service

Micah 6:6-8 (NIV)
6  With what shall I come before the LORD and bow down before the exalted God? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old?

7   Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

8  He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

Religiosity? - NO
"With what shall I come before the Lord...?"

  • empty religiosity? - "...burnt offerings...rivers of oil?"

  • extreme rituals? - "Shall I offer my firstborn...?"

    • these are SHALLOW
    • these are a SHOW
    • these are SHORT of the STANDARD

 

Relationship - YES
"What does the LORD require of you?"

  • character - "...act justly..."

    • repent of sin
    • raise the standard
  • compassion - "...love mercy..."

    • display mercy
    • do ministry
  • closeness - "...walk humbly with your God."

    • love God
    • lean on God
    • look with God
    • live for God's glory
