Thoughts After the Sermon, “Respecting Human Life” Exodus 20:13
by Vermon Pierre, Lead Pastor
Some reminders and further thoughts from last Sunday’s sermon, “Respecting Human Life” (Exodus 20:13):
1. Human beings are made in the image of God. This is the essential point to understand and embrace. If you see that we are people made to uniquely represent God – to be like a high definition photograph of God – then that will begin to significantly influence how you think about and treat other people. It will make you someone who will want to stand for and defend the sanctity of life.
2. “While were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son” (Rom 5:10). That means that while you and I were busy being murderers – murdering people but through hateful or angry thoughts or words or attitudes – God moved towards us through Jesus Christ. He gave him Son to rescue us murderers from a judgment we deserved and adopted us into a family we did not deserve. Wow! Thank you God for your grace and love!
