(08/18/2024) Dio Yang
Let Us Approach God

Scriptures: Hebrews 4:12-16

Introduction: The rest of Jesus who knows our all

Main Points of Sharing:

1. The alive and active Word of God (v. 12)

2. The trichotomy of man (v. 12)

The body — the outer shell of a man
The soul — the ego of a man
The spirit — the God-sense of a man

3. The all-seeing and all-judging God (v. 13)
4. The empathizing High Priest (vv. 14-15)

He is from heaven and now in heaven
He empathizes with our weaknesses
He was tempted but without sin

5.Let us approach God (v. 16)

God’s throne of mercy and grace
Approaching God with confidence
We may receive mercy and grace in our time of need

Speaker: Dio Yang

After Service Discussion Questions:
1. What are the functions of the body, soul and spirit of man?
2. How can we approach the holy God?
