Note: This is from a sermon delivered by Drew Nitchoff to the Sacramento Church on June 14, 2009:
I. The Call to Follow Jesus
-Mark 1:16-20-Jesus call us to follow Him (relationship is we are His students [disciples]).
-Hebrews 12:12-We must fix our eyes on Him.
-Luke 9:18-27-Do we really deny ourselves and carry the cross as He expects us to do?
-Matthew 16:21-28-Revival cannot happen unless we're willing to follow Jesus. (Question: Do you follow Jesus?)
II. The Call to Radical Change
-Matthew 6:24-34-Which Master do you love? Hate?
-What do you run after (vv.32)? Happiness? Comfort? Status? Material gain?
-Do you continue to seek the Kingdom (vv. 33-34)?
-James 4:1-4- Worldliness makes us enemies of God!
-James 1:22-2:11-Do you (as believers) have genuine faith in Christ?
-Matthew 18:1-4; It takes humility, faith and action for radical change.
-Isaiah 58:8- We all need revival in our lives.
Comment: This is tough to swallow, but it is Sculptural . In order for me to change, I must make radical decisions based on the Word.
