Series: Rethinking Your View of the Church

1 Corinthians 1:4-9
I have one simple hope for you today: to convince you that you need the grace of God. My aim is to persuade you that you that God's grace is a big deal. Many of you have consciously experienced the grace of God at your conversion... and I hope to deepen your God-given appreciation for it.
The back door of deepening your appreciate of grace will see a deeper grasp of humility. Others of you, who are under the sound of my voice, have never consciously experienced God's grace. In just a few moments, I'm going to extend to you an invitation. An opportunity for you to experience free forgiveness found in Jesus Christ. Our pastors will be down front at the front of the room. We want you to experience the grace found only in Jesus Christ. If you are outside of Christ this morning, then... you know nothing of its sweet taste on your lips. You know nothing of its restful embrace in the middle of the night when remorse and regret used to wake you as your conscience experiences terrible pangs. You may know only the grace as simply something said over a meal. But you don't know the real meaning of grace. And your ignorance is colossal. For grace is the Gospel. If you don't know grace, you don't know anything about the Gospel. And if we (the church) don't know grace, then we are not a church. The people inside the church are prone to forget God's grace. We are prone to live as if the grace of God is not true.
