Apollo Beach | Jesus: Our Ultimate Fulfillment

John 4

The problem isn’t always about you want, it’s you’re looking for it.

📖 1 John 2:16 ESV For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life —is not from the Father but is from the world.

1. Jesus you where you are.

Three social barriers Jesus crossed to reach the woman:

→

→

→

don’t find Jesus because we were looking for Him; we find Jesus because came looking for us.

📖 John 4:13-14 ESV Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

2. Jesus you what can’t you.

📖 John 4:16-18 ESV Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.” The woman answered him, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You are right in saying, ‘I have no husband’; for you have had five husbands, and the one you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true.”

Three lies the world tries to sell you:

A.

📖 Ecclesiastes 2:10-11 ESV And whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I kept my heart from no pleasure, for my heart found pleasure in all my toil, and this was my reward for all my toil. 11 Then I considered all that my hands had done and the toil I had expended in doing it, and behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was nothing to be gained under the sun.

B.

📖 Matthew 6:19-21 ESV Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

C.

3. Jesus your story.

📖 Matthew 28:19 ESV Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Sermon in a sentence:

Jesus you where you are, what nothing else can, and you a new life.
