Luke 23:46 This sermon looks into the profound significance of Jesus' final words on the cross, exploring how they illuminate the path to true communion and fellowship with God. Many believers may struggle with maintaining focus on Christ's sacrifice amidst life's distractions, especially during seasons that can become consumed by materialism, busyness, or personal struggles like loneliness and depression. There's also a common tension regarding how our actions impact our relationship with a holy God. The message clarifies these tensions by examining Jesus' last statements as a three-fold message of confrontation, comfort, and concession. It teaches that sin breaks communion, as evidenced by the Father turning from Jesus on the cross (Matthew 27:45-46), urging us to confront and confess our own sin to restore fellowship (Isaiah 59:1-2). It then offers comfort, showing that like Jesus commending His spirit into the Father's hands (Luke 23:46), our lives are securely held by God (Psalm 31:15), allowing for joy even through trials (1 Peter 1:7-8). Finally, it calls for concession, mirroring Jesus' yielding of His spirit (Matthew 27:50) by presenting ourselves as living sacrifices (Romans 12:1), embracing the "dying of Jesus" so His life can be manifest in us (2 Corinthians 4:10). This teaching is practically relevant for preparing our hearts for the Lord's Supper, guiding us to self-examination, repentance, and a deeper surrender to God's will.
