In man's thinking emptiness means to be void of something. It is hard for man to comprehend that life can come from death, but the Christian celebrates the fact of life every year at Easter.

In the trial leading up to the crucifixion of Christ there were alot of people involved in this event and each make some contribution that lead to Christ Crucifixion. But there was one person who was there that was not directly involved, but he became a recipient of God's Amazing Grace that day. The man Barabbas deserved to die, but instead Christ was chosen to take his place. What a beautiful picture of how each of us become recipients of God's Grace.

God wants us to do supernatural things and I believe that 2008 is a season where there is knowledge, wisdom and ability from God to be able to achieve goals, tasks and missions for his glory and honor. This is a year to attain, accomplish, have success, do mighty feats, be triumphant, a season of realizing some things, a time of reaching into the impossible, and a time of moving to the next level.

To live life with purpose means I have to have some sense of where I am going and what I want to accomplish. The fact is that most people hardly plan or at the least plan very little for their lives and their lives are only change direction when something great enough forces us to change. The challenge in 2008 is, What am I going to do different in 2008 to live my life with purpose? This message doesn't give all the answers to the question, but it will offer some tools to help give a sense of direction.

What we fail to realize is that when we are born-again we are no longer a sinner who sins, but we have move from being sinners to becoming saints who sometimes sin. Today I want us to look at this passage in 2 Peter to get an understanding on this concept of Saint or Sinner? The whole purpose of the work of sanctification in our lives is to develop in us the character of a saint which in essence is the character of Christ. This lesson today is to help us get an image in our spirit and in our minds of the concept of being a saint of God.
