The Problem Of Modern Man…
True Manliness: Surrender and Follow Christ
True manliness develops by being transformed into the image of the Son of Man. (2Corinthians 3 v18, 5 v17.)
Stop conforming to the world’s mold and aim for something – SOMEONE – higher. (Romans 12 v2)
ABC’s of Courage
Always Attentive: (Ezekiel 3 v17, Ephesians 5 v17, Hebrews 5 v13-14, Psalm 144 v1-2, John 12 v46)
Watcher on the wall – vigilant.
Attentiveness = confidence = training.
Brazen Bravery: (Romans 5 v8)
People who run in when everyone else was running away.
Courageous Conviction: (Hebrews 12 v2-3)
Courageous conviction is a commitment to something outside of you, higher than yourself.
