Dear Church Family, 

Recap of Sunday Sermon (April 21, 2024)

The Cleansing Touch of Christ

Mark 1:40-45

In this passage of scripture, we meet a leper who ran to Jesus and fell at his feet in worship, knowing that, if the Lord was willing, he would be healed. Though lepers were forbidden to enter crowds without shouting "UNCLEAN!", this man went boldly, because he trusted in the power of Christ. And he was healed! Yes God cares! What a lesson we learn from this leper! 

Go to Jesus with reverence and worship and recognize who he is. (Verse 40)

God's gracious touch can transform even the filthiest of sinners. (Verse 41)

When Christ says something is clean, it is CLEAN! (Verse 42)

The cleansing touch of Christ is followed by the commands of Christ. (Verse 43-44)

Even Christ honors the Word of God. (Verse 44)

While disobedience hinders God's work in our lives, His plans always prevail! (Verse 45)

 

He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. So work out your salvation with fear and trembling. Christianity is not about letting go and letting God. It requires intentional participation.

So, in reverence, make an effort, because the Lord Saved You!
