Carl Helmuth – Our Faith is Verbal Not Visual
Series: (All)
Our Faith Must Be Built On…Hearing and Not Seeing
 
We worship a God who speaks Not One who is seen
Therefore, our faith is based on hearing Not on seeing
 
We worship a God who has done all that
is needed to satisfy His own requirements
 
Therefore, our faith is based on knowing Him and all He has done
Not on anything we do
 
Our “doing” is the fruit of our faith Not the “root” of it

    Walk by the Spirit - Five myths about “walking in the Spirit” (Part 1)
    • We think there is a step-by-step plan, system, strategy, scheme, blueprint, method, for “walking by the Spirit”
    • We think “walking by the Spirit” should come naturally…and feel just like walking by the flesh
    • We think that since our flesh has been crucified and made dead…that means that it is powerless
    • We think “walking by the Spirit” means He does all the work…I should be able to “let go” and let Him...
    • We think “walking by the Spirit” is something we do alone and on our own

    7 Thoughts From Galatians 4:21-31
    • The power of knowing the scriptures - Paul used this OT narrative with gentiles as though they already knew it
    • The sovereignty of God (even in the sins of men) - Paul used this illustration as though God intended for Hagar/Ishmael to exist
    • The innocence of evil - How innocent the compromise with Hagar must have seemed to A & S
    • The facade of slavery - It is deception that makes slaves seem free, and free men seem like slaves
    • The call to be sons of the free woman (Sarah) - Only those born twice through the promise of God are truly free
    • The call to fight the Ishmael within us - We have a first-born enemy within us that is hostile to our second-born self
    • The call to expect hostility - Those who rely on man’s efforts will always be hostile to those who are of grace

    What is meant by: “We Live By Faith”?
    • Faith has an object - We have faith in Christ - Faith is not some power or ability that we possess
    • Faith is living in God’s reality – not ours - Faith is about the doctrine of imputation
    • Faith rightly orders love - Faith causes us to love created things properly
    • Faith is our sight - Faith in God’s truth is the spiritual eyes for the believer
    • Faith is power - Faith is the engine that powers us to obedience
    • Faith always looks to the future - Faith is all about living for the future while yet in the present

    Three Clarifications of Justification:
    • All religions seek justification in one of two ways - by the work and effort of man - by the work and effort of God
    • Justification is a work of God - it is the opposite of condemnation - it is being pardoned for all sin and guilt - it is being declared legally righteous and accepted
    • Faith is the only instrument for justification - faith in Jesus Christ - it is Christ who saves us – faith places us in Him

    Take-aways:
    • The gospel is about a rescue mission - it is about what Christ has done for you - the truly saved will praise Him generously
    • Expect a lifelong need for diligent discernment - we have an enemy who always distorts truth
    • It is WHAT you believe that is important - not just how sincerely you believe it
    • In your life you will have to take a stand for Christ, and against men
    • God reveals Christ to me so that He might be revealed in me

    • The world listens to them
    • Whoever knows God listens to the apostles (through the scriptures)
    • Whoever is not from God does not listen to the apostles (scriptures)

    Sanctification is:
    • The process of God recreating us into the image of Christ
    • Unavoidable for the true believer in Christ
    • The product of having a past, present, and future view of the grace of God in your life
    • Produced in the inner man 
      • but tested and grown by our response to the outer world

    Irreversible Truths of the Law of Sowing and Reaping
    1. Whatever a man sows, he will reap
    2. The kind that we sow is the kind that we will reap
    3. The law of S&R is both negative and positive
    4. We reap MORE than we sow
    5. Sowing is reactive – it is responding to a desire
    6. When we sow to the flesh, we are deceived
    7. We reap in proportion to how much we sow
    8. Sowing and Reaping are in different seasons - reaping comes in God’s appointed season
    9. The cross is proof that the law of S&R is fixed
    10. The Gospel does not remove the law of S&R - it switches the roles of the sower and reaper - we reap what Christ has sown - He reaped what we have sown
    11. God uses the law of S&R to discipline His children
    12. We reap a harvest of “fruit” - fruit has seed which will start S&R over again
