~ Sermon 14/06/26 ~
Mike Randall - Psalm 24
How unworthy we are to be in God's creation and in His presence. How wrong it is for us to receive all the beauty we have been given, including our very lives, and then neglect to thank or appreciate God for any of it. Worse than that, the Bible says that we are hostile in mind (Romans 8:7; Colossians 1:21) and enemies of God (Romans 5:10).
But God is so loving that even though we are totally unworthy, He desires to bless people with His love and bring us into a loving relationship with Himself. Therefore, He sent the One who is entirely worthy to trade places with us. Jesus alone is worthy to ascend the hill of the Lord and stand in the holy place. He is the One without sin, in whose mouth no deceit was found. Yet we deemed Him unworthy of us and put Him to death. But He willingly submitted both to our sinful desires and to the plan of His Father so that, through His death, we might enter the holy place. Being found in Him, and because of His righteousness alone, we are counted worthy to ascend the hill of the Lord and stand in the holy place.
