THE COMPANIONSHIP OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST

We have to put ourselves first in a position for us to be able to have the companionship of our Lord Jesus Christ. “A man that hath friends must show himself friendly;
and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.” Proverbs 18:24. To have the close companionship of Jesus Christ, we must show ourselves friendly.
This then brings about a favorable relationship.
“Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have,” for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Hebrews 13:5.
This brings about the unbroken fellowship and companionship that our Lord made provisions for. “For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed;
but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee.” Isaiah 54:10

 


     

     

     

    "HOW YOU CAN KNOW THAT GOD IS ALIVE"

    TEXT: Psalm 8:l-5

    INTRODUCTION: Among the most recent fads to hit America and attract the attention of the public is the "God is Dead" theory! A College Professor came out with the statement; "If there is a God He no longer speaks to man." The most glorious fact in the universe is that men may know God personally! I know . . . because years ago I met Him, and I want to tell you how I know God Is alive!

    1. I SEE GOD IN THE MIRACLE OF CREATION; Gen. 1:1
      I SEE:
      1. Birds: I'm. reminded that he attends the funeral of each sparrow that falls. (Matt. 10:29)
      2. Fields; "He Is Lord of the Harvest" Matthew 9:38
      3. Mountains: He owns the cattle of a thousand hills!
      4. Stars: "The host of Heaven cannot be numbered" (Jer. 33:22)
      5. Rivers: "There is a River of Life" Rev.
    2. I SEE GOD IN THE LIVES OF TRANSFORMED MEN: II Cor. 5:17
      1. Mel Trotter: A drunkard became a preacher
      2. D. L. Moody: A shoe clerk
      3. Billy Sunday: Ball player
    3. I SEE GOD IN ANSWERED PRAYER: James 5:16
      Prayer is the hand that grasps the Omnipotent hand!
      1. Jesus Prayed to God:
        1. In the Garden:
        2. by the Sea of Galilee:
        3. on the Cross
      2. John Knox prayed: "Give me Scotland or I die I"
    4. I SEE GOD IN HIS SON JESUS CHRIST; John 14:9
      "He that hath seen me hath seen the Father"
      We see the attributes of God in His Son, Jesus:
      1. God is love: Jesus had compassion
      2. God is sympathetic
      3. God is Eternal Heb. 13:8
    5. I SEE GOD IN HIS BOOK, THE BIBLE: John 1:1
      1. Daniel Webster: "These are the words of more than mortal man!"
      2. Andrew Jackson: "The Bible is the book upon which this republic rests"
      3. Henry Grady; "The Bible is the hope of the nation"

    No matter what the subject may be, the ultimate of that scripture portion is to lead you to Jesus!

     

    YES, God is alive, and you too can know him!
