It will Cost You Everything!

It Will Cost You Everything!

This is an excerpt from the sermon 'It Will Cost You Everything'  preached by Steve Lawson at the Resolved Conference in the year of 2007. He speaks of the commitment we must have if we are willing to stand with Christ and be one of His disciples.

What are we willing to give for Christ? He gave us His life so that we might live forever in eternity with Him. Many of us today only give back to Him half-hearted attempts of service on Sunday mornings or Wednesday nights.
Luke 14:33 says, "So then, none of you can be My disciple who does not give up all his own possessions."
We call ourselves Christians so should we not give everything for the sake of the Kingdom of God and our Saviour? We must do this! Are we willing to lay our very lives down if need be so that Christ will be glorified through us? In our North American culture we are not experiencing anything as severe as loosing our life so all the more we should be giving it to Christ.
As you strive to live for God's glory, keep this verse in mind:

Romans 8:38-39, "For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Chrsit Jesus our Lord."

Remember the cost!

Blessings,
          Lucas C.
