The Effects of an Exemplary Example (Part 3) by Dr. Rod Mattoon

About this sermon

1 Timothy 4:10-12... For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. 11 These things command and teach. 12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. In part 3 of this message, we focus our attention on our wonderful Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. This is an excerpt of the message that was preached on Sunday morning, April 16, 2023, at Lincoln Land Baptist Church. Our Savior is remarkable! * He’s NOT incapacitated by discouragement, depression, disease, or His death. * He’s NOT inadequate in His ability to save those who desire His forgiveness, mercy, and grace. * He’s NOT incapable of answering our prayers and meeting our needs. * He’s NOT incriminated by the charges of being a sinner for He was without sin. * He’s NOT infatuated with the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. * He’s NOT inflated with pride that leaves Him uncaring, unconcerned, and uninvolved in our lives. * He’s NOT inhibited by Satan’s temptations, testings, taunting, and trouble. * He’s NOT intimidated by the scorn, scoffing, and slander of an unbelieving world. * He’s NOT invalidated by the world’s lack of faith or belief in His deity. He is still God. He is the Judge of the world and we all will answer to Him one day. Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. What a blessing it is for the Christian to know Him as Savior!
