Jesus is Lord | Sean Finch | 24th March 2024

Ps Sean rounds off the series 'Jesus is' by giving a recap on the messages so far then focusing today on the title 'Jesus is Lord'. What does it mean to be a Lord?, there are many daily uses of this word in secular language but Jesus is not just Lord, He is Lord of Lords.

Scriptures abound here but the cardinal point of Ps Sean's message is this: If Jesus is not Lord of all in our lives, He is not Lord at all. We all need to examine how we live, what we say, what we hear, what we look at, what we do, engage in, our decisions, everything. This is immensely challenging. Luke 6:46-49 (NIV) says "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say? As for everyone who comes to me and hears my words and puts them into practice, I will show you what they are like. They are like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock".

It's easy to listen to the word and not respond in our hearts and deeds. Jesus bore the price for our sins with His blood on the cross. Our value is His blood. Let us not forget. If our lives become compromised, this leads to blindness which leads to deception ending in destruction. Jesus bore our sins to set us free and make us righteous before God the Father.
