Unto your hands O God of truth my spirit

I commit

You have redeemed my soul from death and saved me from

the pit

The passions of my hope and fear

maintain a doubtful strife

While sorrow pain and sin conspire to take away my life

I know my days are in your hands though I draw near to dust

You are the God in whom I trust. You

are my refuge

So lift up your voice and sing aloud and praise him all you

saints

How wondrous is his grace

He is our refuge

O make your most beloved face to shine

upon me now

And save me for your mercy's sake for I am

lost without

While in my hast I'm quick to say “Where is your help for me?”

But you attend me when I pray and you have heard my plea



are my refuge

Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like

me

I once was lost but now am found was blind but now I see

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my

fears relieved

How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed

My chains are gone I've been set free. My God my savior has ransomed me

And like a flood his mercy reigns. Unending loveAmazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me. His work my

hope secures

He will my shield and portion be as long as

life endures





The earth shall soon dissolve like snow the sun forbear to

shine

But God who called me here below will

be forever mineWill be forever mineYou are forever mine

Children's Sermon

Melanie Lattimer

WHO MATTERS IN THE KINGDOM

Matthew 18Rev. Martin SandersLiving Christ Church

July 2012

Overview of the Kingdom

•What

•Who

•How

•When

Matthew 18:1-4

1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

2 He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 18:5-7

5 And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.

6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!

Matthew 18:8-9

8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire. 9 And if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.

I. Children Matter (v. 1-9)

•Innocence, Simplicity, Trust

•Easy to picture

•Children ARE the church, not the future of the church.

CHILDREN = Jesus’ warning (v.5-9)

•Welcome them (v. 5)

•If you cause harm – WOE!

•The Passion of Jesus

•Take this seriously: cutoff / hell fire

Matthew 18:10-14

10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven. my Father in heaven. 11 For the Son of Man came to seek For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lostand to save the lost..

12 “What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and “What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wanderedon the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off?off?13 And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he is happier about that And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. off. 14 14 In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.that any of these little ones should perish.

II. Lost Stuff,People Matter (v.10-14)

•In the Kingdom – Never Lost

•The RISKY LOVE OF THE FATHER

•The Hopes, Dreams, Future, Potential should never be lost!

Matthew 18:15-17

15 “If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. 16 But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’ 17 If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.

Matthew 18:18-19

18 “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

19 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”

III. Those Needing Forgiveness (v. 15-19)

•“SINS” – not annoys, is difficult, or jerky

•Alone, one or two others, church

•If refuses…treat as pagan – Restorative

•Discipline = Restorative, not Punitive

TOGETHERThe Influence of The Kingdom

Your words

Binding & Loosing

Unity of Purpose / Agreement

Welcoming His Presence – 2 or 3

IV. In The Kingdom, It’s Not About Me (v. 21-35)

•“How many times shall I forgive?”

•“MORE”! More than is “reasonable”

•It’s NOT about what you like or are comfortable with!

Matthew 18:32-25

32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ 34 In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.

35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”

In The Kingdom: It’s about People

•Children

•Those who’ve lost their way

•Those who need to be forgiven

•Treat each one with regard

In LCC

•A Kingdom Approach: mission, people, decisions, money, etc.

•How we treat people / children / youth

•How we deal with challenges
