The second point
from the Three Intentional Steps to be “In” is Obedience. We are told by Jesus
that we show our love for Him by obedience to His Word.
The impact of Jesus’
ministry on people is found in Mark 1:27-28, The people were all so amazed that
they asked each other, “What is this? A new teaching—and with authority! He
even gives orders to impure spirits and they obey him.” News about
him spread quickly over the whole region of Galilee. People reacted in three
ways: They were amazed. questioned. They
spread the news everywhere.
The impact should be
the same on us. All three responses should characterize us as we witness
the power of God in changing and healing lives. Have we become gospel-hardened?
Have you allowed Jesus to have full control (Inside) of your life? Do you want
to grow?
Remember these three
rhyming words. Attend (church and study groups)
–Begin (apply your learning) – Jump in (serve and lead).
Just Don’t pretend! Amen?
