Sunday 12-1-2024 Speaker: Rev. Mark Thornton Theme: Raising the Standards Series: Gifts of Disruptions Sermon: The Reality of Christ Scriptures: Matthew 1:18-23 and Genesis 3:9   We tell the birth of Christ (Matthew 1:18-23) like a feel-good children’s story once a year. Jesus didn’t show up for you to tell a feel-good story about him. What is the reality of Christ for you? What is the Truth of Him? Do you truly understand who He is and why He came?   Matthew 1:23 states “the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son. They will call him Immanuel which means God with us”. God asked Adam where he was in Genesis 3:9. Jesus came for God’s question to Adam. This question identified Adam as being separated from God. When Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, they gained a knowledge and responsibility that they couldn’t handle. They couldn’t handle the whole weight of righteousness.   The whole weight of righteousness belonged to the Light (Jesus). Jesus carried and handled the weight and responsibility. He made a shame of himself for you on the cross. He saw you from afar and came to get you just like the Prodigal Son’s father. He looked for you even when you weren’t searching for him.   Jesus is the real reason for the season. What season did he show up for? What will happen when the season is over? Will he still be the season? What season are you waiting for? What season is this? Do you know who came to save you?   There will be a lot of deception in the last days. The message of the enemy will come from the pulpit. The enemy is not fighting or sobbing you over a season. The enemy is fighting you over your life. God is still writing the story of your life. Your life should be a daily open testimony. It is Now or Never for your discernment not to be turned off. Are you prepared not to be deceived? Are you so in tune with God that you can recognize the lie?   All live services are now streaming on: Faith Life, One Life Church’s website (https://www.Onelifega.org) and YouTube (One Life Church GA) Please like and share these videos with the following hashtags:   #ILoveMyOneLife #letsdolifetogether   One Life Church appreciates your support!!
