1. Jesus came down from heaven.
2. The Father has given Jesus all authority.
3. Jesus gives the Spirit generously.
1. Jesus must be CRUCIFIED to PAY my sin penalty.
“Jesus lays hold of the wheel of the world to set it moving on that last revolution which is to bring all history to a close. It refuses to turn, and he throws himself on it. Then it does turn and it crushes him.” ~ Albert Schweitzer (The Quest for the Historical Jesus, pp. 370-371)
2. I must be born AGAIN to enter HEAVEN.
THE NEW BIRTH begins with a change of mind that produces a change of behavior
3. I must SURRENDER to Jesus as my LORD.
"A day must come in our lives, as definite as the day of our conversion, when we give up all right to ourselves and submit to the absolute Lordship of Jesus Christ." ~ Watchman Nee (The Normal Christian Life)
The Life and most Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe of York, Mariner: who lived Eight and Twenty Years, all alone in an uninhabited Island on the coast of America, lying near the Mouth of the Great River of Oroonoque; Having been cast on Shore by Shipwreck, wherein all the Men perished but himself. With An Account how he was at last as strangely deliver’d by Pyrates. Written by Himself. ~ Robinson Crusoe (1719)
“I had not only been moved to look up to heaven myself, and to seek the Hand that had brought me here, but was now to be made an instrument, under Providence, to save the life, and soul of a poor savage, and bring him to the true knowledge of Christian faith. That he might know Christ Jesus, in whom is life eternal; I say, when I reflected upon all these things, a secret joy ran through every part of My soul, and I frequently rejoiced that ever I was brought to this place for this single purpose.” ~ Robinson Crusoe (1719)
