Message

LIVES TRANSFORMED
“Religion to Relationship”
John 3:1-21; John 7:45-52; John 19:38-42

Introduction: The challenge for most people is to move from a system of religion and rituals into a relationship with God who loves them.

The Problem: There are many, who consider themselves religious, who are frustrated, legalistic and have no joy or hope of eternal life in Heaven.

The Goal: God desires to transform them from someone who is religious to one who has a fulfilling relationship with Him.

The Definitions: Religion is man’s effort to reach God; Christianity is God’s effort to reach man.

Nicodemus’ Journey from Religion to Relationship:

He Meets Jesus 
The Curiosity of Nicodemus (John 3:1-2)
The Example from Jesus (John 3:3)
The Confusion of Nicodemus (John 3:4)
The Explanation from Jesus (John 3:5-8)
The Contemplation of Nicodemus (John 3:9)
The Education of Nicodemus (John 3:10-21)

He Defends Jesus (John 7:45-52)

He Identifies with Jesus (John 19:38-42)

Conclusion: Transformation from Religion to Relationship:

Jesus gives us salvation through His Death, Burial and Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:1-4)

Jesus frees us from the bondage of sin (Romans 6:5-7)

Jesus gives us the privilege to come before God (Hebrews 10:19-22)

Jesus gives us the privilege to become Children of God (Romans 8:14-17)
