Can Jesus depend upon us as his servants? Can he depend upon us to 1) Help the needy? 2) Live for Him? 3) Teach the Gospel? Each should know their responsibilities as Christians to help the poor, live in a Christian way, and teach others the gospel. In this lesson, I hope that each would understand that while God does not depend upon us in an existential sense, he does depend upon us, by his choice, to do what he commands us to do.

To be a child of God is to have the blessing of: 1) Forgiveness, 2) Family 3) A Father 4) Felicity. Each should be encouraged in knowing that they are children of God. I hope to use fatherhood as an illustration of what it means to be a child of God.

God is a guarantee for his servants when we 1) Oppose Pride, 2) Seek Salvation, 3) Pray for God to Act, 4) Love God’s Commandments. The hearer should learn that our participation is required to have God as our guarantee.

I hope to to familiarize everyone with this story and teach its lessons so as not to fall into similar circumstances as the rich man.
“Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” Peter uses a metaphor that is not familiar to us. “Gird up your loins” refers to the act of pulling up one’s tunic, tying a belt around it, and preparing to walk.
Lack of patience can also cause us to use our tongues incorrectly saying things that we should not say. Sometimes a person may feel like he just must say something. He feels awkward when there is silence among others.
