Because some of you say you've had an encounter with God and I don't see much change.

And again, I'm You know Once again, as always, it's a great privilege for me to be here with you.

I want to go to the Lord of Prayer,

and we're going to summarize some of the things we've already learned,

and then we're going to move on.

Let's pray.

Father, I come before you in the name of your son. There is no one like you in the heavens of the earth or under the earth.

You are God.

We worship you, we praise you, we thank you that you created us.

But most importantly, Lord, we thank you that you redeemed us and not with coin or gold

or silver, but with the blood of your own son.

Father, I pray that those who are here today

would know you deeply, would love your son,

would walk in obedience to Him and find new life in Christ.

Father, help us. We are small and we are weak.

And we look to you.

In Jesus' name, amen.

We will do a short summary of the gospel,

and then we will look at,

we're going to make a turn here and we'll look at our

proper response to the gospel. So the gospel comes from a Greek term, Evangelion, and it is the good news.

But the good news cannot be understood apart from the bad news.
