FACE OFF?

ACTS 9                                                                                  Pastor Rick Jackson



I. WHEN THE LOST FACE GOD IN THIS LIFE

1. The Faith Response [Acts 9:1-7]

2. The Foolish Response [Acts 24:24-25, Rev. 21:8]

Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin , because they believe not on me;  Of  righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.  - John 16:7-11

3. The Fear Response [Rev. 6:15-17]



II. WHEN THE SAVED FACE GOD IN THIS LIFE

1. The Repentant Response [Job 40:1-5, 42:1-6]

2. The Responsive Response [Is. 6:1-8]

3. The Reverent  Response [Rev. 1:9-17]



III. WHEN FACE OFFS OCCUR AFTER THIS LIFE



1. Ashamed at His Coming [1 John 2:28]

And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

2. Appear at His Seat [2 Corinthians 5:10]

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

3. Stand at His Throne [Rev. 20:11-15]

And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
