‘The Real Lordship Of Jesus Over Our Lives.’
Matthew 7:21-27.
a) Matthew 7:21. Is not simply calling Jesus Lord out of our mouths.
b) Matthew 7:21. It means doing the Will of the Heavenly Father.
c) Matthew 7:22. Many people will claim to have been used in Gifts of the Holy Spirit.
d) Matthew 7:23. Jesus Christ will say to them:-
1-I never knew you.
2-Depart from me.
3-You practise lawlessness.
e) Matthew 7:24. We need to hear the Words of Jesus and act on them. Then we will be as wise people who build our houses on rocks.
f) Matthew 7:25. Inclement weather is not going to cause our house to fall down.
g) Matthew 7:26. If we refuse to act upon the Words of Jesus we are like foolish people who build their houses on sand.
h) Matthew 7:27. Inclement weather causes the house to collapse in a big way.
(This QT teaches me that The Real Lordship Of Jesus Over My Life means that I do the Will of my Heavenly Father and act on the Words that Jesus speaks to me from His Word)

‘Renewal Of Our Thinking Mind.’
a) Romans 12:2. Brings Transformation to our lives.
b) Ephesians 4:22-24. Enables us to live a new life in Christ.
c) Titus 3:5. Is a part of the Salvation process.
(Through this Second one I find the importance of Renewal Of My Thinking Mind is so important, exclusively in the Biblical sense, which is the Work of the Holy Spirit)

Chris.
Through the Word of God and the Holy Spirit every True Believer needs Renewal of the Thinking Mind. This cannot be done in a worldly way, nor is it the power of positive thinking, it is the Sovereign work of God’s Grace as we expose ourselves to the Word of God and the Holy Spirit.
