Top fears of people:is being alone.
We want to stay connected with the people we care about.
Within the Trinity, we see the first relationships that ever existed.
NICENE CREED (A.D. 325) WRITTEN AT THE COUNCIL OF NICAEA
We believe in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, Very God of Very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father by whom all things were made; who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man, and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, and the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father. And he shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead, whose kingdom shall have no end.
And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father, who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified, who spoke by the prophets...
Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us...”
Genesis 1:26
God placed His image in us. Each of us is an image bearer of God.
After God created Adam and placed him in the Garden of Eden, Adam began to work on taking care of the garden and naming the animals. Genesis 2:15
God said, “ It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him”. Genesis 2:18
Was God not good enough for Adam?
God wants us to live in community, but there is more to community than just hanging out. God wants us to have meaningful relationships.
How many messages—whether through Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, text, etc.—do you send out in a day?
What do you normally talk about with your friends?
Life isn’t one-dimensional.
The conversation that really matters in life is the gospel because it is the only message that changes the course of eternity.
God is the source of everything that is good and right with the world.James 1:7
You do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. James 4:14
Life is incredibly short.
The GOSPEL message goes like this...
G od created us to be with Him.
O ur sins separate us from God.
S ins cannot be removed by good deeds.
P aying the price for sin, Jesus died and rose again.
E veryone who trusts in Him alone has eternal life.
L ife with Jesus starts now and lasts forever.
For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes—the Jew first and also the Gentile.Romans 1:16
What are some ways we can have conversations that really matter?
•Do you believe in a higher power?
•Who was Jesus?
•Have you ever thought about what happens when you die?
•Who do you think was the most influential person that ever lived?
•Do you think there is such thing as sin in the world?
•Have you ever thought about becoming a Christian?
•What’s the meaning of life?
