Jesus Is Scandalous Grace

Scandalous Grace - Andy King - Jesus Is... from Riverside Community Church on Vimeo.

A few weeks ago I shared a message called "Jesus is Scandalous Grace." I wanted to post it on my blog as many have asked for it. In the middle of the message I show a powerful video. Due to some issues, we could not embed it into the actual message so at 22:15, pause the video and click the Barabbas link below. Hope you enjoy!

The Church We See

Jesus is... 

What does that mean?

That statement can be continued in so many ways

Is it a statement or a question, it all depends on who is answering it

The church we see answers that in a way that can change lives. It can change this City, It can change the world

(Connect)

The church we see connects people to Jesus, not just by talk but by action 

Its a church that is Jesus to a dying world 24/7

A church that loves people like Jesus did...with  An unconditional love. Its a "come as you are type of love".

As people connect with Jesus, he connects with them through community and worship. The inward experience now becomes on outward expression

The church connects people to Jesus

(Grow)

A church we see Helps people of all ages grow in their faith

The church challenges people to grow closer to Jesus and as we grow closer to Jesus, the reflection of what we see challenges us to change and be even more like Jesus

Jesus changes everything

Our walk, our talk, our life, our desires, our passions, our pursuits. If we use Jesus as the mirror, he will show us where we are but more importantly where we need to be

(Go)

The church we see is a movement. It's on the Go. 

As we see how Jesus is changing and transforming us, we need to the put action to our faith. 

The message of Jesus is for a world who needs to hear that message. 

Jesus wants us to Go and occupy every street, neighborhood, sub division, City. Every work place, school, college and home.

The church we see physically is Jesus to the poor, the broken, the homeless

The church we see physically is also Jesus to the rich, lost, confused, depressed

From the faceless to the famous, Jesus is hope to the hopeless

The church has no borders, no limits to where it can go. Jesus called us to Go. 

It's a call to action locally and globally. 

We must Occupy every street 

So now you see who Jesus is... It's US, you and me "The church"

We are his hands and feet to a dying world. We are his representatives in society.

When people see us, interact with us, do life with us...they should see, interact and do life with Jesus

The church we see exists to show you who Jesus is...
