GROWING DEEP IN THE CHRISTIAN LIFE - DISC 9 - "Changing Lives Is Jesus's Business"

Selected Scriptures

In our previous lesson, we discovered considerable evidence for both the humanity and deity dwelling within Jesus Christ. Such a study could leave us with the erroneous idea that His life was merely a theoretical (or theological) phenomenon with little practical value. Not so! As we are soon going to learn, He touched people where they were and changed their lives. Such changes were often dramatic, creating a stir among others. Changing lives is our Lord’s continual ministry. He begins with the raw material of our own humanity and, as time passes, He faithfully works with us, stays by our side, empowers us with new strength, and ultimately reshapes and remakes us into vessels of honor for His greater glory. How do we know this? Partly from our own experience . . . but also from the Scriptures that record one changed life after another.
