Pastor Chuck discusses how Jesus turned the religious establishment of the day upside down and by doing so was branded as a Loose lawbreaker, an Offensive Outlaw, a Radical Rebel and a Disruptive dissident - all because he was the LORD.

- 1. Series – JESUS is ______________ Part 2: JESUS is an Outlaw! Pastor Chuck Bernal – February 28, 2016 Reading theGospels without knowing the personality ofJesus islike watching television with the sound turned off. The result is a dry, two-dimensional person doing strange, undecipherable things. We need to remove the religious varnish in order to discover stunning new insights into who Jesus really is. He was accused of breaking the law, keeping bad company, heavy drinking and of being an evilperson. He was so compelling and dangerousthey had to kill him. But others loved him passionately. He had a sense of humor. His generosity was scandalous. His anger made enemiestremble. He'd say themost outrageous things. He was definitely not the Jesus of the stained glass. To understand Jesus, we must break him out of the typical stereotypes. By uncovering the real Jesus, our understanding of Him – and our own lives will change. All of the remarkable qualities ofJesus burst like fireworks with color and brilliance when we see Him asHe really is – and we can experiencethisJesusin theirlivesevery day.

He wanted to stay out of Judea, where the Jewish leaders were plotting his death . . . But after his brothers left for the festival, Jesus also went, though secretly, staying out of public view . . . There was a lot of grumbling about him among the crowds. Some argued, “He’s a good man,” but others said, “He’s nothing but a fraud who deceives the people.” But no one had the courage to speak favorably about him in public, for

The people were surprised when they heard him. “How does he know so much when he hasn’t been trained?” they asked . . . Some of the people who lived in Jerusalem started to ask each other, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill? But here he is, speaking in public, and they say nothing to him. Could our leaders possibly believe that he is the Messiah? Many among the crowds at the Temple believed in him. “After all,” they said, “would you expect the Messiah to do more miraculous signs than this man has done?” When the Pharisees heard that the crowds were whispering such things, they and the leading priests sent Temple guards to arrest Jesus . . . So the crowd was divided about him. Some even wanted him arrested, but no one laid a hand on him. When the Temple guards returned without having arrested Jesus, the leading priests and Pharisees demanded, “Why didn’t you bring him in?” “We have never heard anyone speak like this!” the guards responded. “Have you been led astray, too?” the Pharisees mocked . . . This foolish crowd follows him, but they are ignorant of the law. God’s curse is on them!” (John 7:1, 10-15, 25-26, 31-32, 40-51 – NLT) C__________________________________ U__________________________________ P__________________________________ THE REBEL CODE: ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES FOR GOD’S BEST Substituting_____________________ for ______________________ Substituting_____________________ for ______________________ Substituting___________ knowledge for ___________ knowledge Substituting_____________________ for ______________________ Substituting_____________________ for ______________________ Substituting_____________________ for ______________________ John 2:1-12: Turning water into wine John 2:13-23: Clearing out the temple John 3:1-21: Confronting preconceived religious beliefs John 4:4-42: Showing compassion to an outcast John 5:1-15: Healing on the Sabbath John 5:16-47: Claiming to be God John 6:22-68: Preaching the hard truth about God
