Household of God: The Prevailing Church In A Perplexing World - 07 - Family Culture of the Last Adam - 1 Corinthians 15:45-49; Mark 1:9-15

Pastor Bill Warner

Three Family Truths

  1. We’re Either Born Into Or Adopted Into Our Family.

  2. All Families Have A “Family Culture.”

  3. In The Biblical Narrative, There Are Essentially Only Two “Families.”

The “Family Culture” Of The Two Adams

  1. In The Last Adam’s Family, Being Precedes Doing.

  2. In The First Adam’s Family, Doing Precedes Being.

    • Moralism Is Our Strategy To Achieve In The Flesh What We Can Only Receive Through The Last Adam And His Finished Work.

  3. The Antidote To Moralism Is To Draw Near To The Last Adam In Truth.

Household of God: Prevailing Church In A Perplexing World - 06 - The Family Resemblance - 1 John 3:1

Pastor Bill Warner

1 John – Purpose

1. To receive the saving message of Christ’s coming

2. To rejoice in the commands of Christ’s teaching

3. To revel in the love of the Father which transforms his children’s love for one another and the world

1 John 3:1 “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are.”

1. “ See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are.” 2. “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are.” 3. “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are.” 4. “See what kind of love the Father has given to us , that we should be called children of God; and so we are.” 5. “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God ; and so we are.” There Are 3 Persons Who Legitimize The Reality Of Our Family Resemblance.

1. The Father/Spirit (Romans 8:14-17)

2. The Son (Hebrews 2:11-12)

3. “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are ”—the “Household of God: The Prevailing Church in a Perplexing World.”

Psalm 110

In this Psalm David records God’s two-part divine pronouncement that seems to be directed toward a Davidic descendant; someone from David’s lineage.
