Senthil Thangaraj - Yielding to God's Will
Speaker: Senthil Thangaraj Title: Yielding to God's Will Date: 08/25/2024 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
Senthil Thangaraj uses the parable of the ten virgins to teach that Christians must yield their will to God's will in every circumstance to develop spiritual maturity, symbolized by the extra oil in the lamps. Drawing from Matthew 7:21 and Jesus' example in John 6:38, he illustrates that just as peanuts must undergo a refining process to become oil, believers must submit to God's processes in life. The goal is to reflect Jesus and become fully functioning members of the local church, ultimately receiving God's commendation.
