Final Preparations

Steve Lane

A. Review

His entire life was focused on revealing God and God's message to mankind.
A desire to bring glory to God and not to self.
He leaves them in the world for a purpose.

"No other love would be sufficient for the disciples' assignment..."

He expresses His love for you daily. Are you enjoying it?

Carelessly, she dismisses Him.

B. Introduction

He is expressing His love daily. How can we enjoy His love and stay in His love?
This is a message of love, union and communication from the Bridegroom to His bride.
Are you hearing the intensity of His love -- the call and the sending?

2 Corinthians 4: 7
"The longer I participate in this call, the more aware I am of my weakness..."

Acts 2: 42
The early church responded to the call and commission of Jesus that night.
His call is the call of a Bridegroom and of a Shepherd.

Again, would you remain in His love?
