2. by following the example of Jesus, we can
successfully live the Christian life. It is Jesus
we are to follow; it is His actions we are to
emulate.
3. It is on the cross that the true
nature of God is revealed: God is love.
JESUS was humble, obedient, & loving. He didn’t ask
for people to serve Him but He came to serve.
We are to do likewise.
4. Philippians 2:14 -18
14 Do everything without grumbling or arguing,
15 so that you may become blameless and pure
children of God without fault in a wicked and
crooked generation. Then you will shine among
them like stars in the sky
16 as you hold firmly to the Word of life. And then
I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that
I did not run or labour in vain.
17 But even if I am being poured out like a drink
offering on the sacrifice and service coming from
your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you.
18 So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.

7. Exodus 14: 14-11 “They said to Moses,
“Was it because there were no graves
in Egypt that you brought us to the
desert to die??”

It has no grain or figs, grape vines or
pomegranates. And there is no water
to drink! The food is detestable”

Judge

standing

at
the
door."

“For
I
am
already
being
poured
out
like
a
drink
offering,
and
the
Dme
for
my
departure
is
near.
I
have
fought
the
good
fight,
I
have
finished
the
race,
I
have
kept
the
faith.
Now
there
is
in
store
for
me
the
crown
of
righteousness,
which
the
Lord,
the
righteous
Judge,
will
award
to
me
on
that
day
-‐
and
not
only
to
me,
but
also
to
all
who
have
longed
for
His
appearing.”
