    Why did Jesus bear the burden of the cross, why the resurrection the breakthrough? So that we coud experience the blessing of God. The best definition of the Holy Spirit is Christ in us. Easter is over but the word and work of Jesus are still ongoing.

    Intro: Thus far we have examined the burden of the cross, the breakthrough of the resurrection, now we come to the blessing of the ascension.

    Is there a yardstick for success? How do we measure it what are the gradations? God’s word and God’s will is the clear measure for success. The book of Joshua clearly tells us as a church and individuals how to have spirtual success.

    Saul gives us a great example of what a follower of God should not do. We can learn a great lesson from this mans life. God can work with anything except disobedience.

    Intro: Saul, if he were alive today could be the star of a reality TV show. It would be titled “What not to do when relating to God.” As we look at Saul’s life we can see pin-holes of greatness.

     | 4,176 views

    The wise men came to Jesus bearing gifts. The gifts recognize who Jesus was. They recognized him as divine, king, with their gifts. How do you recognize Jesus with what you give to Him and others?
