Lord, I Don't Understand You but I Trust You // Matthew 8

Notes: Isaiah 53:3-4 Title: Amazing Jesus Lord, I don’t understand You, but I trust You. Matthew 8:1-4 1. Jesus isn’t just good, Jesus is God. 2. Jesus isn’t just a teacher, Jesus is the Temple. Matthew 8:5-13 God’s favor isn’t rooted in behavior. God’s favor is rooted in a Savior. Luke 7:4-5 1. Self-Righteousness 2. Self-Rejection “Faith that amazes Jesus emerges from a person that is amazed by Jesus.” Rich Vollidas Matthew 8:8-9 “Think of authority this way: the capacity for meaningful action. When you have authority, what you do, or do not do, makes a meaningful difference in the world around you.” Andy Crouch God’s authority doesn’t come to those who manifest their destiny, it comes to those who confess Christ’s divinity. Matthew 8:14-17 “God is always faithful, but he is extremely unpredictable. You cannot rely on your assumptions about what he will or will not do… Look at the apostles in the early days of the Church. Peter was supernaturally delivered out of prison from the edge of Herod’s sword, the same sword which only days previously beheaded James the Son of Thunder… So why all the difficulty? Why does God insist that the world remain unyieldingly chaotic? My conclusion is this: only in a world where faith is difficult can faith exist. Only in a world where pain is real can love be proved.” Andy Squyres Lord, I don’t fully understand You, but I fully trust You.
