Rescue Story

Follow Along with the Message

"You were the voice in the desert, calling me out in the dead of night. 

Fighting my battles for me, You were my rescue story.

Lifted me up from the ashes, carried my soul from death to life,

Bringing me from glory to glory, You were my rescue story."--Zach Williams

Can people be RESCUED? 

Should they be RESCUED?

Cultural consensus for physical rescue.  Is spiritual rescue the same?

Jesus Story, three of them actually.  All the same point.

--PEOPLE ARE VALUABLE TO GOD

--PEOPLE GET LOST IN VARIOUS WAYS

     Lost is dangerous

     "Your sins have separated you from God."--Isaiah 59:2

--RESCUE IS POSSIBLE (You can go home)

     "This man receives sinners."--v. 2

     Takes time

     Takes thought

          "Let us consider how to stimulate each other to love and good deeds."--Hebrews 10:24

--RESCUE IS WHERE THE JOY IS
