Jesus is doing something in our midst.
He is positioning people in places ready to used by the Holy Spirit to see an amazing move of God in this city, region and beyond.
Luke 24:13 The Road to Emmaus
“Two of them were travelling”
- Two guys are on a journey
- I’m on a journey, Your on a journey, Church is on a journey
I Love catching up with people in our church and hearing about their journey with Christ
As we talk I can feel and sense this excitement in your hearts.
Jesus said where two or more are gathered I am there also.
Sadly many churches around the world aren’t talking about Jesus and what He’s doing.
Its 5 points on how to get ahead with sometimes no reference to the Bible or testimony
Its while the two of them are talking about Jesus that He turns up!
Asks them why they are so sad?
They respond with “Don’t you know Man?” “Where have you been? Don’t you know what’s been happening”
Jesus responds with “What things?”
Jesus loves to hear us talk about Him
“He was suppose to be our King and free us”
Turned out to be an epic fail
Jesus wants to hear us talk about Him.
He’s given us “His Story” so we can.
Its when we talk about Him to each other He turns up
When we talk about Him to others…..He turns up
He sets our hearts ablaze.
He walks with them and talks them through the bible from Moses to the Prophets showing them it’s all about Jesus. Its all about Him
Get to the village and he is keen to just keep on going but they ask him to stay. As they are having communion he reveals himself to them and then disappears.
They reflect, “ Didn’t our hearts burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?”
What has this story got to do with the building?
The building is a place where people can come and have Jesus walk alongside them and at the right time
- Reveal Himself to them
- Cleanse peoples hearts
- Set people a blaze with life changing story’s all about Jesus and what He has done for them
Jesus disappears
These guys jump to their feet and immediately go off to tell others about experiencing the risen Christ.
33 They rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem
They have just walked 7 miles 14 kms Inv-Wallacetown.
What do they do?
“Hey its true!!! Jesus is alive!!!”
And while they are talking about Jesus guess what?
He turns up!!!!
We are building a church where people can gather together, talk about Jesus and experience Him turning up.
