The Big Idea: God is both hidden in Jesus and revealed in Jesus. Therefore, Jesus is the guiding light in every existential question. Mark 4:21-25 John 1:9-13 1 John 1:5-10 God wants me to LIVE IN THE LIGHT. Amos 3:7 My three enemies PREFER DARKNESS. Mark 4:24-25 God wants me to CARRY THE LIGHT TO OTHERS. With the measure that you use in your relationship with God and others, God will use that measurement to apportion to you – and even more! What jar or bowl are we hiding the light of the Word under, that is keeping others from seeing the light? What is snuffing out God’s Lamp? RESPONSE: Three Calls Forward: 1. HEAR and ACCEPT God’s Love. Mark 4:20 2. Get off the PERFORMANCE TREADMILL. Colossians 2:23 3. LOVE OTHERS like you love yourself. Matthew 22:37-40 John 13:34-35
