Pastoral

We continue our series on ‘Knowing God through your Emotions’ and look at the unsettling, volatile, and often misunderstood emotion of jealousy.


“I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God...”
God in , NIV

“They used things that are not gods to make me jealous and worthless idols to make me angry. So I will use those who are not a nation to make them jealous; I will use a nation that does not understand to make them angry.” God in Deuteronomy 32:21, NCV

“The meaning of God’s jealousy must be sought in God’s character as the holy One, and it is perhaps a measure of the love and esteem in which he holds creation that the rebellion of a creature infinitely lower than himself could be said to occasion jealousy in him.”
Eerdmans Bible Dictionary, 556

Definition; Jealousy arises when love that rightfully belongs to you is inappropriately, unjustly or disproportionately directed elsewhere; toward another person, place or thing. It’s not coveting, which is simply wanting what others have, and it’s not envy; wishing others didn’t have what they have. Jealousy wants the right thing and, in the right circumstances, is a good emotion. We are, after all, made in the image of a jealous God.

“I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[k] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
, NIV

“Kind jealous doubts

A powerful message looking at things the Lord din't say by looking carefully at the things He did say! This will challenge folks who want to believe that they can act any way they think they can, even if it is completely contrary to the example set forth by the Lord, and call their actions godly or holy. We must preach and believe what Jesus preached and not allow ourselves to be put off of the Gospel by preaching that does not even remotely resemble the message preached by the Lord!

Homiletical Perspective of Luke 19-37-44

1 Corinthians 12:27-28

In this message we’re going to look at our emotions. What are they? Why did God build them into us? How do they image God and how can they help us know him more?

“God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.”
1 John 4:16, NIV

Pastor Dunbar sets us on the path to look at why God created "his" laws for us to follow during our earthly life. HIS law has liberated us so that we can experience life the way God intended us to.

God's people today are called to look outside of themselves and act on behalf of those who are hurting and struggling. We must get these souls to the feet of Jesus who is able to heal, deliver and save! We must become aggressive and be willing to do what is necessary to get the people in need of help into the Master's presence. Tear off the roof!
