Church notes - 1st September 2019
Psalm 150
Proverbs 11:25
Generosity - giving freely, copiously
Generosity finds a way to say yes when you so easily can say no.
Galatians 2:20
Isaiah 53
Acts 8:32 - 35
The greatest Gospel picture in the Old Testament
vs 4 - 9
The man of sorrows. Symbols of Jesus' suffering and death.
The sufferings He experienced were to deal with our sins, not His sins.
It is clear in the Old Testament that the Messiah would suffer.
vs 4, 5, 10, 11
Our iniquities He bore for us.
He is our substitute for us. He takes our punishment.
The Servant acted willingly.
vs 7
Someone unwilling would have cried out.
The Servant is Exalted by God.
vs 12
He is all giving. He gave Himself to spend Himself for us.
Ephesians 4:1 - 13
