Religious Mysteries 101 - The Crucifixion, An analytical look into the basis and proofs for themysterious crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

My last message preached at Bangsar Lutheran Church for 2017.
Focusing on John the Baptist and his testimony.
He became remarkable, then he passes the attention over to the Lamb of God... he shares what he sees, what he knows. So let us all be witnesses in the coming year, let's not just live a worthy life, but share our testimony...

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.
1. John 1:35-37
The next day John was there again with two of
his disciples. When he saw Jesus passing by, he
said, ‘Look, the Lamb of God!’ When the two
disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.

2. John 1:38-39
Turning around, Jesus saw them following and
asked, ‘What do you want?’ They said, ‘Rabbi’
(which means Teacher), ‘where are you staying?’
‘Come,’ he replied, ‘and you will see.’ So they
went and saw where he was staying, and spent
that day with him. It was about the tenth hour.
www.networkchristian.org
3. John 1:40-41
Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the
two who heard what John had said and who had
followed Jesus. The first thing Andrew did was
to find his brother Simon and tell him, ‘We have
found the Messiah’ (that is, the Christ).
www.networkchristian.org
4. John 1:42
And he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at
him and said, ‘You are Simon son of John. You
will be called Cephas’ (which, when translated, is
Peter).

5. Connecting faith to everyday life
begins with carving out TIME for
growing in faith.
Andrew was a RELIGIOUS man before he knew Christ
DEDICATED time to God means time not spent doing
other things.
Religious activity needs to lead us into a closer
RELATIONSHIP with Jesus.
6. Religious activity leads us down a
DEAD END road if it becomes an
end in itself rather than a bridge to
Christ.
When people say that Christians are hypocrites they
are saying they can’t see the DIFFERENCE religion
makes.
Jesus asks them to examine their MOTIVES
They are not looking for what Jesus can do for them,
but to KNOW Him.
7. We see in Andrew one who simply
BROUGHT people to Jesus.
…whether or not we are able to BRING them to
Jesus, at least we can say, we BROUGHT Jesus to
them.
