Sermon Notes
History’s Greatest Scandal
1 Corinthians 1:18-25
Problem #1: Prove Yourself to Me Jesus, Then I’ll Believe
Here’s the problem: When we say do this thing Jesus, and then I will believe- we have revealed that the thing we want Jesus to do (heal us, make us pregnant, get us the job) is our real god, and not Jesus. Jesus is just our assistant.
Problem #2: Make Sense to Me Jesus, Then I’ll Believe
The Difference the Cross Makes- Power to Humble Me
The Difference the Cross Makes- Power to Reconcile
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation”- 2 Corinthians 5:17-19
Broken relationships linger when we look away from the cross.
