Wake Up Call to Your Generation

There's a worldwide view that something has gone wrong in our world -Romans 3. Almost all people believe that we can fix what's gone wrong ourselves. We continue to drink from the same well that we know is poisoned. Not any one sin is causing the problem. Why treat only the symptoms when the disease is what's killing us. God spoke flavors into existence. He did that for our pleasure. If you worship the creation over the Creator then you'll never be fulfilled. We live like we think we're smarter than God, even though we'll never say it out loud. We turn ourselves into blasphemous people by declaring "look what I can do!" when we should be saying, "look what He did through me!" You lie because you're a liar. You steal because you're a thief. You murder because you have hatred. You commit adultery because you lust.

1. All of the ills that befall mankind are symptoms of a greater problem.

2. All human beings are guilty of three things: Romans 1
-All of us prefer creation to the Creator.
-We think we're smarter than God.
-We've all failed to acknowledge Him.

3. If you could fix yourself, you would still be guilty of failing to acknowledge God.

4. You are in desperate need of someone who does not owe, to pay.

5. Through the law no one will stand righteous before God. -Romans 3:20

6. You went from no righteousness of your own to getting the righteousness of God Himself. -Romans 3:21-22 &23 &24

7. You didn't justify yourself. You were justified.
-We try to justify our "bad" actions by our "good" actions, when actually they're equally despicable to God.
-Righteousness has been made available to us through Jesus.

8. You are, without any ability to argue your cause, guilty.

9. We have lost a fear of God.

10. We will give an account to God.

11. It's a righteousness that is given to you in Jesus Christ.

No amount of "good" works can provide righteousness for us. Even through our deliberate rebellion, God continues to pursue us.
