Jesus Christ (John 10:10, NASB)
JESUS came that
you may have a life
12

Therefore, just as sin
entered the world through
one man, and death
through sin, and in this
way death came to all
people, because all
sinned—
Romans 5;12
2 As for you, you were dead
in your transgressions and
sins,
Ephesians 2;1
5

Surely I was sinful at birth,
sinful from the time my
mother conceived me.
Psalm 51;5
2

He is the atoning
sacrifice for our sins, and
not only for ours but also
for the sins of the whole
world.
1 John 2;2
4

But because of his great
love for us, God, who is
rich in mercy, 5 made us
alive with Christ even
when we were dead in
transgressions—it is by
grace you have been saved.
Ephesians 2;4-5
22

For as in Adam all die, so
in Christ all will be made
alive.
1 Corinthians 15:22
JESUS came that
you may have a life
JESUS came that
you may have a life
spent in a DEEP
intimate
relationship with

Him

Wrong view of an Abundant Life
The Apostle
Paul
11

Not that I speak from want, for I
have learned to be content in
whatever circumstances I am. 12 I know
how to get along with humble means,
and I also know how to live in
prosperity; in any and every
circumstance I have learned the
secret of being filled and
going hungry, both of having
abundance and suffering need. 13 I can
do all things through Him
who strengthens me
Paul The Apostle (Philippians 4:11-13, NASB)

PRIORITY IS JESUS

EVIDENCE OF AN ABUNDANT LIFE
7

But whatever things were gain to me,
those things I have counted as loss for the
sake of Christ.8 More than that, I count all
things to be loss in view of the surpassing
value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for
whom I have suffered the loss of all things,
and count them but rubbish so that I may
gain Christ, 9 and may be found in Him, not
having a righteousness of my own derived
from the Law, but that which is through
faith in Christ, the righteousness
which comes from God on the basis of
faith, 10 that I may know Him and the power
of His resurrection and the fellowship of His
sufferings, being conformed to His
death; 11in order that I may attain to the
resurrection from the dead
Paul The Apostle (Philippians 3:7-9, NASB)

We can make an excuse
in everything, even
make an excuse for

If you wait for perfect
conditions, you will never
get anything done
Ecclesiastes 11;4

excuses on why you are not developing
an intimate relationship with Jesus?
• Can you share practical steps on how
you can get to know Jesus Christ
more?

And if you are already serving, are you
experiencing Jesus abundantly in your
ministry?
