Scripture In Life
• Community – Matthew 4:18-22• Scripture – Luke 4:16-22• Passion to Become – 1 John 2:6• Separation – Luke 20:20-26
Community – Matthew 4
• The Calling of the First Disciples – 18 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea
of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 19"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." 20At once they left their nets and followed him.
Community Starts With Us
• God joins us together with others.• It is up to us to find ways to relate to
those others.• When we do relate, we find strength
walking together.

Community
• The Calling of the First Disciples • 21Going on from there, he saw two
other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, 22and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.

Scripture – Luke 4
• 16He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. 17The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written: 18"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor.
Scripture Guides Life
• Jesus began His public ministry with scripture.
• It was central to all He did.• Continually He went to scripture to
back up His decisions and thoughts.

Passion To Become
• 1 John 2:6 Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.
Passion Comes From Scriptural Living• When we engage life guided by scripture, our
passion builds.• Passion from scripture and right relationship
with Jesus will energize us when all else is not working.
• Passion from scriptural understanding of God’s heart will lead you into right decisions.
• Right decisions lead you into His specific will for your life.

Separation
• Luke 20 23He saw through their duplicity and said to them, 24"Show me a denarius. Whose portrait and inscription are on it?"
• 25"Caesar's," they replied. He said to them, "Then give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."
Scriptural Living is Different• We are not called in Christ to be
normal humans. • He wants us to think and act different
than the world.• We are in the world, doing what the
world needs done. But we are not of the world. We must change our thoughts to a higher order.
