The Power of the King

Jul 17, 2022    Andy Fuqua

In this powerful message, we explore the profound call of Jesus through the story of Matthew's calling in Matthew 9. We're challenged to consider three universal callings that apply to all of us: admitting we're sick, sharing the cure, and living a new life. The passage reminds us that Jesus came not for the righteous, but for sinners - a humbling truth that invites us to acknowledge our own brokenness. We're encouraged to move beyond religious rituals and embrace 'hesed' - God's faithful, loving relationship with us. This message pushes us to consider how we're responding to Jesus' call in our own lives. Are we truly living as new creations in Christ, or are we trying to patch our old lives with a bit of faith? It's a powerful reminder that following Jesus isn't about minor adjustments, but a complete transformation of our hearts and lives.
