This was a sermon I got a chance to preach in Lake Charles this past Sunday. I think the idea for it came during a bible class when I noticed the passage and thought it sounded like a message we could use. The passage is 1 Corinthians 15:34.
Light & Darkness
-------------------
God is Light (1 John 1:5-7; John 1:1-5)
Same as Obeying/Disobeying God's commandments (1 John 2:1-17)
Cannot be yoked (2 Corinthians 6:14-17)
Christ warned against (John 12:35-36)
Living in Darkness (John 3:19-21)
-------------------
At one point we all were living in darkness
Living in the world (1 John 2:15-17)
Once in darkness (Ephesians 5:1-11)
We can be corrupted even if we walk in light (1 Corinthians 15:33)
It starts with a thought (Luke 11:33-36)
We are called into light
------------------------
Out of darkness (1 Peter 2:9)
We are children of Light (1 Thess. 5:1-6)
We are delivered from darkness into light (Colossians 1:12-13)
Our mission to others is to call them into the light (Acts 26:12-18)
Night is far spent...it is high time to AWAKE (Romans 13:11-14)
