Where's the Beef (73B)

Speaker: Tony Evans

Date: 7/1/2006

References: John 10:7-10

Introduction:

Illustration: Lady in Wendy's commercial asks, “Where's the beef?"

We want to know where the beef is, too.

Illustration: Boy peppers father with questions about the meaning of life.
Illustration: Wife finds out the marriage alone won't satisfy her deepest desires.
If we don't know what life is really all about, Satan will offer us imitation life.

Without the life of Christ, we are dead.

We cannot give ourselves life.
The root of the problem is the sin of Adam.
Illustration: Sam the forester disobeys and gets kicked out of his mansion.

God often has a hard time getting our attention.

We are sheep, and sheep are ignorant.
Like sheep, we follow whatever looks the best.
Illustration: Sheep return to their folds through only one entrance guarded by the shepherd.
Other voices who entice us away from Jesus are thieves and robbers.

The meaning of abundant life.

You will be saved.
You will be safe.
You will be satisfied.

Conclusion:

The beef is in Jesus, the substance of life.
