[BB] [PREACHING LESSON 14:] BUILDING THE SPIRITUAL LIFE OF THE CHRISTIAN IN A GOOD SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION.

 

BUILDING THE SPIRITUAL LIFE OF THE CHRISTIAN IN A GOOD SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION.

( 1Corinthians 3:10-15 ) [10]According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

[11]For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

[12]Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

[13]Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

[14]If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

[15]If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

* INTRODUCTION:

 THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE RIGHT AND SURE FOUNDATION OF GOD'S PEOPLE.

( 1 Corinthians 3:11 ) For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

1. THE LIVING WORD OF CHRIST IS OUR RIGHT FOUNDATION IN THE LIFE OF THE CHRISTIAN.

* The Lord Jesus Christ is Word that meditate day by day.

( John 1:1-3 ) [1]In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

[2]The same was in the beginning with God.

[3]All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

( Hebrews 4:12 ) For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

( Matthew 4:4 ) But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

2. THE LIGHT OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE RIGHT FOUNDATION IN THE CHRISTIAN.

( John 1:4-9 ) [4]In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

[5]And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

[6]There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

[7]The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

[8]He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

[9]That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

3. THE LOVE OF CHRIST IS THE RIGHT FOUNDATION OF THE CHRISTIAN.

( II Corinthians 5:14 ) For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

4. THE LIFE OF CHRIST IS THE RIGHT FOUNDATION OF THE CHRISTIAN.

( I Peter 2:21 ) For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:

5. THE LOOKING UNTO JESUS IS RIGHT FOUNDATION OF THE CHRISTIAN 

( Hebrews 12:2 ) Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

* God bless you all always *
