Life's Greatest Event
Larry Wynn
2 Corinthians 5:17
Introduction
A. The birth of a new baby is one of the most exciting events People experience.
1. I remember when our children were born. Before amanda I promised myself and god i would not be in the delivery Room. God and my wife had other plans. Now, i'm glad They did. Even though i drove the dr. Crazy. I.e. As the Baby began to crown i asked the proverbial question Every dad asks, ''is it a boy or girl?'' he stopped what he Was doing, looked at me, and said, to my wife, ''all these Dads think i can tell if it's a boy or girl by looking at the Top of the baby's head!''
2. The miracle of birth is enough evidence there is a god in Heaven!
B. Life's greatest event is not physical birth; it's spiritual birth.
1. Many figures are used in the bible to explain and Illustrate salvation.
A. Sheep returning to the fold.
B. Leper being made clean.
C. Resurrection
2. The most common is birth.
A. Ii cor. 5:17. Being made a new creation.
B. John 3.being born again.
C. I peter 1: 22-25. The incorruptible birth.
C. Today, focus on ii corinthians 5:17.
I. Birth begins with conception.
A. Birth produces life.
1. Life cannot be manufactured; it must be imparted.
2. Spiritual life cannot be manufactured; it must be Imparted from god.
Ill. Can exist before being spiritually born, but real life Begins at the new birth.
B. Birth involves two parents.
1. As physical birth involves a mother and a father, Spiritual birth involves two elements.
