Scripture: Romans 10:9-17

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we do in life echoes in eternity.\u201d (Quote from Gladiator)<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

I.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 THE CHALLENGE FROM THE PAST \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u201cI think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it\u2019s not the answer.\u201d\u00a0 (Jim Carrey)<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

II.\u00a0\u00a0 THE CHALLENGE FOR THE FUTURE \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u201cOnly one life will soon be past; only what\u2019s done for Christ will last.\u201d<\/p>\n

Every follower of Jesus is called (to leverage<\/strong>) his or her life for the (cause of Christ<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

Romans 10: 9-17<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It is a call to (listen to the gospel<\/strong><\/span>) and then to (surrender our lives<\/strong><\/span>) to Jesus.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Note the progression found in verses 14-17.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe world has yet to see what God can do in and with and through a man who is wholly committed to Him. I want to be that man.\u201d\u00a0 D.L. Moody<\/p>\n

Next Year\u2019s theme: (Life on the Edge<\/span>)<\/p>\n

A wasted life according to Pastor John Piper:<\/p>\n

1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A life without (passion<\/strong><\/span>) for the supremacy of God in all things.<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A life lived not for (the glory of God<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A life lived without weaving God into our (eating and drinking<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A life lived when we don\u2019t pray and think and dream and plan and work toward (magnifying God<\/strong><\/span>) in all spheres of life.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe one who fears God need fear nothing else.\u201d John Wesley<\/p>\n
