Getting In God's Way
Understanding the Way of God. If we had our choice, the way that God does things in not necessarily the way that we would do things. You may have caught yourself saying something like: "God, if I had my way .... I would do this." But it is not alwayts our way. In Isaiah God says: "My ways are not your ways and my thoughts are not your thoughts because my ways and My thoughts are higher than your ways and thoughts." Tonight we will look at Getting In God's Way.

God's Way
Everyone is searching for a new Idea. A new way of doing things, God has taken care of that problem for us. He has provided a way, His way is right, His way is straight, narrow, and very few will find it. Let’s look for a few moments at God’s Way.

Life After Easter
Text: Colossians 3:1-15; Romans 8:11-14 Key Thought: Jesus opens His new life to us – and to enter means struggle, wonder and gratitude. Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven where Christ is, sitting at God’s right hand in the place of honour and power. Let heaven fill your thoughts. Do not think only about things down here on earth. For you died when Christ died, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God. And when Christ, who is your real life, is revealed to the whole world, you will share in all his glory. So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual sin, impurity, lust, and shameful desires. Don’t be greedy for the good things of this life, for that is idolatry. God’s terrible anger will come upon those who do such things. You used to do them when your life was still part of this world. But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behaviour, slander, and dirty language. Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old evil nature and all its wicked deeds. In its place you have clothed yourselves with a brand-new nature that is continually being renewed as you learn more and more about Christ, who created this new nature within you. In this new life, it doesn’t matter if you are a Greek or a Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free. Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us. Since God chose you to be the holy people whom he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. You must make allowance for each other’s faults and forgive the person who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. And the most important piece of clothing you must wear is love. Love is what binds us all together in perfect harmony. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are all called to live in peace. And always be thankful. (Colossians 3:1-15, NLT)

What Will People Think?
The example in the Bible about Nicodemus being embarrassed and approaching Jesus at night so that no one would know he had questions, brings us to the the question and answered of what Jesus said it means to be "born again". Being "born again" is essential to a relationship with God. Everyone needs to have a "born again" experience. To be "born again" we must put our trust in Jesus.
