Below are some simple instructions on how to use this template:
1. You can change the text in the graphical screen above or in the outline area to the left. 2. There is one default background that is indicated by “ ” .This slide acts as a space or a blank screen, use to clear or blank the screen. If you have a large graphic such as a map you could also use this screen. If you insert a new slide you will get this default background.
3. The first five slides have the other backgrounds for the set. To use more than one of these background types in your presentation highlight the one you wish to use and choose copy from the edit menu. Paste this slide where you want it to appear in your presentation, then change the text on this new slide. By copy/pasting the slide in this manor you will keep the background, text formatting and the customized animation from that slide. By using the copy/paste method you find it saves you time and keeps a consistent look through out your presentation.
4.There are a few additional notes written in the slide text wording that may be helpful.
Note: We are working on a website that in the future will provide help topics on using sermon outlines in PowerPoint as well as provide sermon templates similar to this one. Check for more information.

4. John 14:18a, DOCTRINE OF LOGISTICAL GRACE

5. C. The Logistical Grace rationale: Mat 6:25‑34 “Do not worry"

6. 1. Four commands of what not to worry about: a) Life, b) Clothing, c) Food and Drink, d) Tomorrow.

7. Why not? Because God, in logistical grace, will provide for us, regardless of our spiritual status - winner and loser.

8. 2. There is no meter on God's grace
2. There is no meter on God's grace. You cannot measure God's grace and it has no limits.

9. 3. Are you more important than a bird? If so, then we are not to worry!

10. 4. Fear, worry, anxiety, or apprehension is rejection or ignorance of God's logistical grace provision. Yet God continues to support even those who worry.

11. 5. Losers worry. Worry is fear.

12. a. The more things you surrender to fear, the more things you fear
a. The more things you surrender to fear, the more things you fear. The more things about which you worry, the more things you worry about.

13. b. The extent to which you surrender to fear, you increase the power of fear in your life.

14. The extent to which you surrender to worry, you increase the power of worry in your life; yet God still keeps you alive.

15. c. The more things that acquire the power of fear in your life, the greater your capacity for arrogance and becoming a loser.

16. 6. You can so live in the past that you do not live today

19. E. The Issues of Logistical Grace.

21. 1 Peter 5:12, “I have written to you briefly exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand fast in it.”

22. 2. Logistical Grace is designed for momentum in the Plan of God.

23. Heb 12:28, “Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe.”

24. 3. Logistical grace continues in reversionism.

25. 2 Cor 6:1, “Do not receive the grace of God in vain.”

26. Heb 12:15, “See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God…”
