POtHS Comment: Another Good one.
Description:
Louis Giglio - Unthinkable 2005:
"Unthinkable You"
"Unthinkable Invitation"
"Unthinkable Rescue"
"Unthinkable Journey"
Review:
"I cannot explain it any better than this. This unthinkable invitation to the greatest story."
Louie Giglio really understands how to break down Christianity to the core. This was the first of 6 or 7 of his podcasts that I listened to on my way down. The Passion Messages podcast can be seen and subscribed to (for any number of music applications) here.
If you really enjoy it (like I do) and want to use it for a lesson, etc, check out the DVD at the 268Store
This world is messed up in magnitude. But there is a more amazing God who has invited us to know him, linking arms with us that we might be amplifiers for the beauty of Jesus to all peoples.
He is not only a global God — he's a galatic God. He is bigger than anything we can imagine. We don't have a clue, really, about who we are dealing with. The universe was one of God's thoughts.
Consider the scene of Isaiah 6: Isaiah saw the LORD. God was high and lifted up, not low and watered down. Isaiah realized at some point in that scene that worship will happen with or without him. And it wrecked him. Isaiah felt the weight. He was finished. Are we carrying this? Do we feel this, too?
Here are three questions we must encounter with Isaiah:
Have you seen that God?
Have you felt that desperate and been touched with that kind of grace?
Did you hear him when he said "who shall we send?"
Psalm 148:1-5 —
Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise him in the heights! Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his hosts!
Praise him, sun and moon, praise him, all you shining stars! Praise him, you highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens!
Let them praise the name of the LORD! For he commanded and they were created.
God tends to direct our attention to things greater than us to lead us to worship. We don't understand the expanse of the worship that constantly surrounds the throne of God.
One of the most amazing things about redemption is that we are apart of it. It is a great commission and an unthinkable invitation. God is not throwing a manual in your lap. Marvel that the God who doesn't need you has welcomed you into his glorious plan.
If you want to know Jesus you need to be where he is. If you want intimacy with him then be where he is at — among the peoples of the earth. You may be missing intimacy with Jesus because you're out there doing your thing while Jesus is doing his great work. Will we respond to his invitation to be a part of it? The nations would be glad. They are waiting. And we'd be happy because there we will know Jesus — when we're on mission with him.
There are people around the world waiting on you. And you are dying and shriveling up because you are off doing your thing. We are invited to go. Who is inviting us to go? A great God who doesn't need us.

JESUS: Believe this about Jesus to move on to Greener Pastures.
Born of a Virgin, He was killed for our transgressions, His blood was shed as a sacrifice to atone for my sins. He was buried and ROSE three days later, according to The Scriptures. Praise the Lord for HE HAS RISEN. I am now forgiven for my sins, past, present and future and can live on with the Lord in Eternity, forever.
RAPtURE (My transportation outta here).
The Blessed Hope. If you believe in The Rapture you better believe The Above Statement and that the Sacrificed Blood of Jesus, on the Cross paid for your sins and there is NOTHING Else you can do to gain Salvation, The GRACE of Christ did it ALL. Now you just have to believe that with all your Heart, Mind and Soul or Maybe Get Left Behind. All PAST, Present and Future Sins are Forgiven with Jesus. (I wouldn't PUSH That Future sin statement to much!!!)
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed...
"And He will send forth His angels with A GREAT TRUMPET and THEY WILL GATHER TOGETHER His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.
"Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming, in which all who are in the tombs will hear His voice, Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in The Air, and there we will be forever be with him...hmmm sounds like some of us might be Immortal. (Ask your preacher about that)
May Yahweh Bless You as He has me. Seed Long and Prosper from the Blessings of our Lord. I have asked the Father to Bless all those that Seed Long.
