The Joy of Our Salvation
____________________________

3. “But God is so rich in mercy and He
loved us so much, that even though
we were dead because of our sins,
He gave us life when He raised
Christ from the dead. For He raised
us from the dead along with
Christ and seated us with Him in
the heavenly realms because we
are united with Christ Jesus. So
God can point to us in all future
ages as examples of the incredible
wealth of His grace and kindness
toward us, as shown in all He has
done for us who are united with
Christ. God saved you by His
grace when you believed. And
you can’t take credit for this;
it is a GIFT from God.”
EPHESIANS 2:4-8

4. Jesus didn’t just save us from something.
He saved us FOR eternal union with Him.
Get passion by receiving His passion for you.

5. THE NATURE OF GOD
We need to know the true nature of God
because our behavior is a direct reflection of
how we believe the Father treats us.

6. How Jesus Relates To Us Personally
The Woman Caught in Adultery
_____________
*Jesus isn’t afraid of our messes. He cares more about the condition of our
hearts than about protecting His “reputation”.
*His influence in our lives is the fruit of the favor and trust He’s built in our
relationship with Him.
*He doesn’t love us from a distance. John 8:8 says, “He stooped down.”

8. As we look at Him,
He gives us courage
to leave behind the
former things that
have prevented us
from fully receiving
all He has for us.

9. Removing everything
that would hinder
or violate love.
What Jesus paid for.
THE JUSTICE OF GOD:
Isaiah 53:5

10. "THEN AT LAST THE LORD OF
HEAVEN'S ARMIES WILL HIMSELF
BE ISRAEL'S GLORIOUS CROWN.
HE WILL BE THE PRIDE AND JOY
OF THE REMNANT OF HIS PEOPLE.
HE WILL GIVE A LONGING FOR JUSTICE
TO THEIR JUDGES. HE WILL GIVE
GREAT COURAGE
TO THEIR WARRIORS WHO STAND AT THE GATES."
Isaiah 28:5-6
