Presentation transcript:

Holy, Loving Father What Jesus taught about God’s Character and what that means for us.

God’s Character  What lens do we see God through?  Jesus taught us to see God through His Character and actions.  Hebrews 10:14 – For by one offering He forever made perfect those who are being made holy.  When we understand God’s Character we understand the Kingdom of God, and how we are to live it here on earth.

Jesus taught God is inflexibly Holy  Matthew 25:31-45 – The Parable of The Sheep and The Goats  Jesus taught that with God there is no gray area. There is right and there is wrong.  Jesus taught that God will never go against His word. (Jesus is the Judge, everyone will be judged, not everyone gets into heaven)  The Difference between the Sheep and the Goats – Understanding God’s Character and living it here on Earth.

We are being made Holy  Hebrews 10:14 – For by one offering He forever made perfect those who are being made holy.  The Cross is the beginning of The Kingdom (Made Perfect)  Our daily decisions and actions are what advance the Kingdom (Being made Holy)

Jesus taught God is relationally loving  Luke 15:15-32 – The Prodigal Son  The Parable of the Prodigal is a story that illustrates Restoration, Unconditional Love, and Forgiveness.  Jesus used this story to show why He came to the earth.  Both the young son, and the old son had problems in understanding the father’s character.  They were both concerned with themselves. The Father cared about them.

What does this mean for us?  Jesus teaches us to be perfect as our Heavenly Father is perfect. – Matthew 5:43-48  We are called to Love everyone.  We deal with conflict differently – Matthew 18:15-17  We have a new relationship with God as our Father.  We bring others into our community.
