Jesus was missional. We should be missional like Jesus was. |
For the past few weeks at my church, we've been talking about habits. Habits can determine the course of our lives. Bad habits will lead us down a destructive path. Good habits will improve our quality of life. There is no way human beings can live a life filled with nothing but good habits. Truth be told, we all have bad habits we need to change. However, there was one man who lived a perfect life. He had no bad habits at all. His name was and is Jesus. As Christ followers, we should desire to copy the habits of Jesus (we are calling them Jesus habits). We have learned that Jesus prayed. Jesus worshiped. Jesus was relational. Jesus was generous. Today, we learn that Jesus was missional.
The following are my Bible study notes based on my pastor's sermon. You are invited to watch, listen, and worship with us here.
Jesus Was Missional
I'm not afraid of failure; I'm afraid of succeeding at things that don't matter. - William Carey
For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost. - Luke 19:10
So Jesus said to them again, “Peace be to you; just as the Father has sent Me, I also send you." - John 20:21
Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. 2 And there was a man called by the name f Zaccheus; he was a chief tax collector and he was rich. 3 Zaccheus was trying to see who Jesus was, and he was unable due to the crowd, because he was short in stature. 4 So he ran on ahead and climbed up a sycamore tree in order to see Him, because He was about to pass through that way. 5 And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and said to him, “Zaccheus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.” 6 And he hurried and came down, and received Him joyfully. 7 When the people saw this, they all began to complain, saying, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner!” 8 But Zaccheus stopped and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, half of my possessions I am giving to the poor, and if I have extorted anything from anyone, I am giving back four times as much.” 9 And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because he, too, is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.” - Luke 19:1-10
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. - Romans 3:23
