Trinity Pulpit

Eighth Sunday after Trinity

Rev. Wade E. Butler

July 13, 2008

Synopsis ►

You are very highly prized by God!  There is no reason for a Christian to ever have poor self-esteem. He has put in us a Spirit that has done some marvelous things.  We do not have a Spirit of fear because we know God is on our side.  We do not have a God who is high and exalted and mean.  We have a Spirit of adoption.  God came and found us, chose us, and gave us His Name.  To us, He is Abba, Father, Daddy, not some far off god.  We need not be prisoners of our flesh any longer.  Our relationship with God has qualified us to be too good for the sins of the flesh.  We are heirs with Christ!  We have no need to roll in the rot of this world; we will inherit the New Heaven and the New Earth.  Who wouldn’t be a Christian, knowing that?
