Sermon for 8/18/13 Jeremiah 23



wheat vs. straw
Did you see those bales of corn last summer?
 not worth much
Prophets say all is well
 straw
How do we make our plans? What do we trust?
 heart
 dreams
 what Dad or Mom would do
That trusts straw
OK to look back, share visions, reminisce but that isn’t our authority
Hebrews 11 - the authority of the Word of God
Jesus is the true and living Word
There is our power
 trust
 hope
 forgiveness
 grace and truth
 promises
Learn God’s power, God’s promises, God’s Word
 Bible study
 discipleship
 evangelism
 God’s hope for the world
We’re walking forward, looking back, relying on the Word.
