SERMON RECAP
God’s Good Purpose
June 4, 2023 || Genesis 1:26-31 || Walt Alexander
MAIN POINT: Let the lives of the godly be deeply committed to worship, community, and work.
Worship. God is the Creator. We are the created. It makes us accountable to God. We owe our existence and our allegiance to God. As a result, this also points to our call to worship God.
Community. We are invited into a relationship with God. We were created by a triune God and reflect this relational capacity in our design for community.
Work. The scripture calls us to work (verse 28) by five commands: fruitful, multiply, fill, subdue, and have dominion. All work is good when done under God.
We should devote ourselves to these three things - worship, community, work.
TGKIDS RECAP
TGKIDS
The heart of TGKids is to help children understand that the Bible is all about Jesus! Below is the story, scripture, and main teaching points from the TGKids lesson, so that you can talk with your kids about what they learned.
Bible Story: Josiah, the Eight-Year-Old King
Scripture: 2 Chronicles 34:1-33
Bible Truth: God’s Word will never pass away.
Where is Jesus: Matthew 5:17–20
Though Amon forgot the Word of the Lord and it was lost for a season, God ensured that it would not be lost for good. It was God’s mercy to allow Amon to be killed and young Josiah to be made king. It was God who gave Josiah a heart for righteousness, and it was God who led him to preserve the Word of God and the promise of a coming deliverer, Jesus.
Jesus is called “the Word” in the Gospel of John. God in his faithfulness would not let his Word pass away because his Word is all about his Son, Jesus. The Word of God describes the sinfulness of man and the promise of redemption by God through Jesus. Not the smallest portion of God’s Word will pass away until it is accomplished.
