John 12:20-26

20 Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the festival. 21 They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. “Sir,” they said, “we would like to see Jesus.” 22 Philip went to tell Andrew; Andrew and Philip in turn told Jesus.

23 Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies,it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.25 Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.

Tuesday Events:

-Leaves Bethany

-Finds the fig tree withered; teaches on faith

-Possesses the temple and its precincts; confounds and pronounces woes upon His enemies

Join Austin and Sydney as they continue to talk about the bad news, the nature of man, and the beauty of the Gospel in Romans chapter 2.

"Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God? Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? But because of your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed." Romans 2:1-5

God's holiness has been revealed to the earth, and because of this, God's wrath and justice is revealed against sin. Join Austin and Sydney as they dive into Romans 1:24-32, and continue to dive into Paul's declaration of God's holiness, wrath, and the total depravity of man.

24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to tthe dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, vwho is blessed forever! Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. 29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.

God's holiness has been revealed to the earth, and because of this, God's wrath and justice is revealed against sin. Join Austin and Sydney as they dive into Romans 1:18-23, and unpack Paul's declaration of God's holiness, wrath, and the total depravity of man.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world,[a] in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.

Join Austin and Sydney as they dive into Romans 1:8-15 and discuss the posture Paul displays in his writing to Rome.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world. 9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you10 always in my prayers, asking that somehow by God's will I may now at last succeed in coming to you. 11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you— 12 that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine. 13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers,[c] that I have often intended to come to you (but thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles. 14 I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians,[d] both to the wise and to the foolish. 15 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome."

What does it really mean when we say we are set apart? Is it a tagline or the bottom line of our walk with Christ? Join Austin and Sydney as they talk about being set apart for Christ.

"When Christ calls a man, He bids him come and die."- Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.... In this is love, not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his only Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. - 1 John 4:7-11

Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable, he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the house, ready for every good work. - 2 Timothy 2:21

But know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself; the Lord hears when I call to him. - Psalm 4:3

Philippians 1:19-30 Yes, and I will rejoice, 19 for I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance, 20 as it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death. 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. 23 I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better. 24 But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account. 25 Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,26 so that in me you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again. 27 Only let your manner of life be worthy[h] of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, 28 and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God. 29 For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake, 30 engaged in the same conflict that you saw I had and now hear that I still have.

God didn't give us a guide on the right way to rest. He doesn't even tell us how He rested. But, we are called to do so. Because of this why so many of us struggle with understanding what rest is, we either aren't doing it right, or we don't do it all.

This episode is to dive into the idea of biblical rest and what it looks like. We aren't talking about self-care where resting is all about you. As christians our whole being should be focused on God and who He is. We are called to do everything pleasing and honoring Him. In our resting, we should be focused on Him - not unplugging yourself from everything including Him.

Main Passage: Genesis 1-2

Creation builds up to God RESTING, the sabbath is Holy.

The Enemies of Rest:

•Hustle •Perfection •Worry & Anxiety •Technology & Social Media

Serving others... It's always something we want to talk about in church, it's something we want to instill in our kids, and it's even a mantra we say to ourselves as if it has magical powers. I myself am guilty of this, yet have we ever stopped to think about why service is important? Are we relying on a Sunday school tag line to answer that question? What about serving in a local church, is that even required? This episode is going to take a stab at unpacking that question practically.

In this episode, Austin & Sydney complete the Uncomfortable Attribute: Sovereignty.

God is Sovereign over the nations of the earth

•Jeremiah 10:7- "Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? Indeed it is Your due! For among all the wise men of the nations And in all their kingdoms, There is none like You." •Deuteronomy 10:14- "Behold, to the LORD your God belong heaven and the highest heavens, the earth and all that is in it.God is sovereign over your worry

•James 4:15- "Instead, you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that."God is Sovereign over nations leadership

•Romans 13:1 - Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. •Daniel 2:21 "He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding." •Proverbs 8:15-15 "By me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just; by me princes govern, and nobles-all who rule on earth."

Austin and Sydney dive deep into scripture to better understand God's Sovereignty. We look at God's Sovereignty over the Earth, Creation (mankind), and in tragedies. This is Part 1 of a 2 Part series.

Revelations 3:15-17 You either believe the Bible in it's entirety or you don't. Don't be lukewarm.

Sovereignty means: Hebrew- reign , Rule, dominion Greek- kingship, sovereignty, authority, rule, especially of God, both in the world, and in the hearts of men; hence: kingdom, in the concrete sense.

God sits sovereign over the earth

•Psalm 135:6- "Whatever the LORD pleases, He does, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps." •1 Samuel 2:10- " "Those who contend with the LORD will be shattered; Against them He will thunder in the heavens, The LORD will judge the ends of the earth; And He will give strength to His king, And will exalt the horn of His anointed." •Psalm 47:2- "For the LORD Most High is to be feared, A great King over all the earth."

God sits sovereign over His creations(mankind)

•Romans 9:19-21- "You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? For who resists His will?" On the contrary, who are you, O man, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, "Why did you make me like this," will it? Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use?" •Isaiah 45:9-10 - "Woe to the one who quarrels with his Maker-- An earthenware vessel among the vessels of earth! Will the clay say to the potter, 'What are you doing?' Or the thing you are making say, 'He has no hands'? "Woe to him who says to a father, 'What are you begetting?' Or to a woman, 'To what are you giving birth?'"

Link to the "She Proves Faithful Podcast" - Being Students of Creation Part 1 http://www.sheprovesfaithful.com/podcast/episode121

God is Sovereign over tragedies

•Psalm 29:10- "The LORD sat as King at the flood; Yes, the LORD sits as King forever."

Application:

•Read Scripture. I challenge you to start anywhere. Choose a book and start to read until you've finished. Take it day-by-day. Devotionals and books written by humans should not be your only source. •Look at your beliefs and feelings and put them up against Scripture. Do you believe that God is Sovereign?

Master; We feel that in today's time there is a TRUE delusion of what this word means. We water down words and weaken the meaning God intended for us to understand. Listen as Austin and Sydney dive deep into scripture to understand this attribute of God - what does it mean when we say God is our Master?

Hebrew words for master:

•Lord, owner, sovereign, Controller, ruler( https://biblehub.com/hebrew/113.htm)

Greek Meaning

•strong, robust, having power over, possessed of, controlling

"The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever" (Psalm 29:10) "Yours, LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, LORD, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all. Wealth and honor come from you; you are the ruler of all things. In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all." (1 Chronicles 29:11-12)

What kind of Master is God? "As for God, his way is perfect: The LORD's word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him."- Psalm 18:30 "The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion."-Psalm 116:5

"Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. Our God is a God who saves; from the Sovereign LORD comes escape from death." - Psalm 68:19-20

Matthew 10:24 The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord Matthew 14:30 But when he felt the wind he grew frightened, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Master, save me."

Also just to hit Luke 22:54-62 where Peter denies Jesus. How scared and fearful he must of been to deny someone he called his MASTER. *** How much greater to through away Jesus when we feel the pressure? Gah, Peter didn't even have the holy spirit at that time `and we DO. How much greater is out treachery against God when we deny Him with having the indwelling of the Spirit. My heart breaks, I feel weak and overwhelmed at looking at this picture. How could we possibly disregard such a great master?

Application:

•Change your view of God: He's not a master with a whip beating us up constantly. We don't have to constantly be doing something good to earn his favor. •Live in obedience: Not in a "obey your boss, obey your parents - because I said so". But out of love for God. If you truly love God, you will want to listen to him, keep his commands, and praise Him. •Run to Him in praise. Say it out loud who He is. He is your master, protector, healer, conqueror, and Savior. Tell Him He is a good master. Praise Him and ask Him for more of the Holy Spirit.

In this episode of "The Struggles We Grow From", Austin and Sydney dive deep into what Holiness means. They dive deep into Scripture, and speak about what this means for us as believers.

Job 6:10 Psalm 71:22 Psalm 77:13 Isaiah 40:25 1 Samuel 2:2 Habakkuk 1:13 Habakkuk 2:20 Zechariah 2:13

1 Peter 1:16

When we come to God in prayer, let our first thing be to remind us that he IS Holy, and to thank Him for that. Our first thing should be to glorify and praise Him. If He wasn't Holy, we wouldn't have a Savior. Let us stop using the term "Holy" so casually.

Verses referencing God's hatred for sin: Proverbs 6:16-19, Jerem. 44:4, Revelation 2:6

From all of the research and studying for the podcast there are a few things that SEVERAL sources believe are essential and there are some things that I have learned from living with Sydney.

•Pray: first for them, then for yourself. Pray for compassion, tenderness, understanding, and pray that you don't try to "fix" them. "A LACK OF COMPASSION LEADS TO A LACK OF PASSION"- A. R. Prince •Love them where they are. •Love them in there lack of faith, love them in there lack of clarity, and love them when they lack in love. •There is no telling how many times I chose to retaliate instead of loving Sydney where she was. I chose to look and act upon how I felt rather than the gospel. •"Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22-23 | NIV •IF we serve a God who never changes and who calls us to pursue holiness in him, then that is the same for compassion. Always. No exceptions.

BUT AUSTIN, WHAT ARE WE TO SAY TO THEM!?

•This is where I am going to give more of my approach on the situation.... Learn to shut up and say nothing. Learn to listen, learn that you are not to fix them. Learn that you are broken, hopeless, and wicked anything you could possibly think of to help them will blow up in your face. You are just as broken as they are.

But when there is a moment to talk, do not speak of your feelings and your thoughts. Do these things

•Remind them of biblical truth. They are redeemed, they are saved, God can handle their anger and frustration, God loves them. •Remember: Even the sweetest words of biblical truth will look often look pointless to them. So what then? •Pray for strength, because that is a sign that battles within them are going to be long and hard.

For the friends or spouse in supporting others

•" with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love," Eph 4:2 •Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant" - 1 Corithians 13:4For the friend or spouse struggling with God

•The Lord is good to everyone who trusts in him, So it is best for us to wait in patience-to wait for him to save us. "- Lamentations 3:25-26

WHAT NOT TO DO

•Harass them •Pressure them •Condemn them

How can I know it's Real?

•Stop looking at your faith and start looking at the one who gifted it to you •There are no absolute relationships on earth, if you don't need them to love and trust your brother then why request it from god?
