Morning: The sermon, "Faith Explained," examined Hebrews 11:1-40. The author of Hebrews reminded us that without faith it is impossible to please God. Faith we were told, "is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see" (11:1). Throughout the chapter the author demonstrates faith by citing example after example.
Evening: We looked at the questions: 1) what it evangelism? and 2) what is the gospel. Evangelism is sharing the gospel in the power of the Spirit and leaving the results to God. The gospel is the message that man is sinful and separated from his holy Creator and that the Creator, took on human flesh in the person of Jesus Christ, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as a substitutionary atonement, was buried and rose again on the third day and now reigns as king over all. The gospel calls sinful humanity to turn from sin to the living God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
