  1. “We Are United”

  2. Confess… my Bible is the way of life. It teaches me how to live. I must live that life. I must study the Book. I must meditate in the Book. It is my road map for living. I live by the Word of God. Thank you Lord for my Bible in Jesus’ Name…Amen.

  3. 2nd Corinthians 5: 17. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

  4. 2nd Corinthians 5: 20. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

  5. Ambassador is the “highest representative” sent from one sovereign power and is supposed to represent the person of the sovereign. • Jesus Christ came from the Father to mankind as the highest ranking representative on this important embassy.

  6. After His resurrection, Jesus left the world, and appointed us in his place. • Now, we execute the function of ambassadors, heaven’s highest representative in Christ's stead.

  7. Now, here is the problem…most people think that being born again is all that it takes to be in this classification.

  8. John 1: 12. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13. Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

  9. Belief by it self does not make a person a child of God. James 2: 19. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

  10. In other words, a belief in God that is void of action that correspond with that belief is useless, lifeless and of no benefit; and it will lead to eternal damnation. • The problem…most people think that being born again is all that it takes to be classified as an ambassador.

  11. Tell your neighbor, we have to continue therein so stand for good! Ephesians 6: 13. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

  12. Family, do everything to stand. • Don’t think that because we have stood qualifies us for ambassadorship. • It’s not about what we have do for God, it is what we are doing for God right now. • Ask your neighbor, what are you doing right now!

  13. Ecclesiastes 1: 1. The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. 2. Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. 3. What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?

  14. Ecclesiastes 1: 16. I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.

  15. Ecclesiastes 1: 17. And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.

  16. Ecclesiastes 2: 1. I said in mine heart, Go to now, I will prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and, behold, this also is vanity. 2. I said of laughter, It is mad: and of mirth, What doeth it?

  17. Ecclesiastes 2: 3. I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life.

  18. Ecclesiastes 2: 4. I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards: 5. I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits:

  19. Ecclesiastes 2: 5. I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits: 6. I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees:

  20. Ecclesiastes 2: 7. I got me servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me:

  21. Ecclesiastes 2: 8. I gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces: I gat me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, as musical instruments, and that of all sorts.

  22. Ecclesiastes 2: 9. So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me.

  23. Ecclesiastes 2: 10. And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was my portion of all my labour.

  24. Make this confession… I am standing for good!
