Taking great risks!

The difference between good and

great is not a matter of

knowledge or pedigree, but of a willingness to take

a radical step of faith.

Where there is no risk, there is no

faith.

… that where there is no risk, there’s no faith;

where there’s no faith, there’s no power or joy or

intimacy with God and therefore no supernatural miracles, no reward, and

no pleasing God.

Making great sacrifices.

Old Testament Sacrifices

Old Testament Sacrifices

Three voluntary offerings:

Burnt offeringGrain offeringPeace offering

Compulsory or required sacrifice made fellowship

with God possible, …

…but voluntary offerings

expressed the kind of love on

which relationships are

built.

To love Jesus is to sacrifice for him.

He wants all of us.

This sacrificial living is a

necessary part of the sanctification process that we experience after

we’re saved.
