HOW TO TAKE OFF YOUR GRAVE CLOTHES
Scripture: COLOSSIANS 2:13, EPHESIANS 1:17-21, I PETER 1:3-4, JOHN 10:18, JOHN 14:6, MARK 10:34, ROMANS 8:31-32
HOW TO TAKE OFF YOUR GRAVE CLOTHES
April 19, 1992
JESUS LOOKED DEEP INTO THE EYES OF THOSE CHASING THE WIND OF
THIS WORLD'S THINGS, HE LOVED THEN AND ASKED,
"WHAT WILL IT PROFIT A MAN IF HE GAINS THE WHOLE WORLD AND LOSES
HIS OWN SOUL?"
ARE YOU BUSY TRYING TO GAIN THE WORLD TODAY BUT IN DANGER OF
LOSING YOUR SOUL?
MUCH IN OUR MODERN LIVES HAS THE SMELL OF DEATH ABOUT IT. OUR
SOCIETY IS IN TROUBLE. THE ECONOMIC STRUGGLES ARE ONLY ON THE
SURFACE. PEOPLE ARE FED UP. THEY ARE SICK AND TIRED, WEARY AND
WORN, THE YUPPIE FATIGUE SYNDROME HAS SET IN. IT HAS A CHOKE
HOLD ON THE LIVES OF MILLIONS IN A "WHATEVER IT TAKES" SOCIETY.
WE ARE A "GIVE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT" SOCIETY. THE BOTTOM LINE
IS SIMPLY GREED AND MONEY. LIFE IS A LOTTERY. THOSE WHO STRIKE
IT RICH WIN?
IF YOU COULD SIMPLY GO OUT TODAY AND BUY EVERYTHING YOU ARE
WORKING SO HARD FOR, WHAT ABOUT YOUR LIFE WOULD REALLY BE
DIFFERENT?
WE ARE ADRIFT IN A STORM WITHOUT MOORINGS. WHERE ARE YOU TIEING
YOUR ROPE? UPON WHAT ROCK ARE YOU FIXING YOUR ANCHOR?
IN OUR SEARCH FOR MEANING AND SUCCESS HAVE WE SOLD THE FARM TO
GO TO THE CITY AND DISCOVERED THAT THE CITY STINKS OF DEATH? AND
WE HAVE NO MONEY TO BUY BACK THE FARM?
THERE IS A LACK OF MEANING AND PURPOSE TODAY! THERE IS A LOSS OF
HOPE! MONEY AND MATERIALISM ARE PHONEY VALUES. THE INADEQUACY OF
THE VISIBLE.
HOW CAN LIFE BE VALUABLE WHEN MILLIONS OF UNBORN CHILDREN HAVE
NO RIGHTS. BABIES AND PEOPLE INGENERAL ARE CONSIDERED TO BE OF
LITTLE VALUE IF THEY ARE AN INCONVENIENCE TO OUR DESIRED
LIFESTYLE!
HOW CAN PARENTS RAISE CHILDREN ...
