Restoring Passion

Reducing Lostness

January 28-29, 2008

First Baptist Church

Arnold, Missouri

Restoring passion and reducing lostness were

dominant themes in our Lord's ministry.

Restoring Passion

When asked which was the greatest commandment, our Lord replied,

"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul,

and with all your mind."  His passion for the Father was like no other.

He yearns for our passion to be a reflection of His.

Reducing Lostness

Christ echoed the focus of His earthly ministry when He said,

"...the son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost"

(Luke 19:10).  The son of God became the son of man, in order

that the sons of men could become the sons of God.
