New Is Not Always Better, but Sometimes It Is 
Matthew 26, Mark 14, Luke 22, John 13 
 
The institution of the Lord’s Supper is a powerful and significant event. It is as significant, for instance, as Israel moving from the Tabernacle to the Temple. Each of these events kind of burst on the page of faith’s book. Because of this, they command our interest and inquiry. 
 
 
1. The Passover. When the Angel of Death passes through the land and you are set free, you remember it. 
 
2. The Feast of Unleavened Bread. When every item on the table means something, do not miss the symbolism. 
 
3. The New Covenant. When the Son of God uses the terms Covenant and New, pay attention. 
 
4. Communion/The Lord’s Supper. When asked to remember, remember what was asked.

"Oh Yeah"

"No, No, No, No, No, No" - Psalm 77:7-9 
The six “no’s” of the sermon title represent the answer to six rhetorical questions in Psalm 77 (not the refrain of one of the oldies but goodies song Nobody But Me, Human Beinz.) It is not intended to reflect any response or reaction to our most recent election. We are going to take a look at these questions and how they apply to us in our day. 
 
1. Will the Lord cast off forever? 
 
 
2. Will He be favorable no more? 
 
 
3. Has His mercy ceased forever? 
 
 
4. Has His promise failed forevermore? 
 
 
5. Has God forgotten to be gracious? 
 
 
6. Has He, in anger, shut up His tender mercies?

Isaiah 7:1-13 and 2 Chronicles 18:1-17 
 
These six Bible characters shared something in common. Ahaz, Jehoshaphat, Ahab, Jehoiakim, Herod and the Rich Young Ruler all shared a polite attitude toward God, but they were devoid of any real relationship with Him. Sadly, they are not alone. Here are four principles to gauge whether you share the same character. 
 
1. Acknowledges God but does not change behavior. 
 
 
2. Recognize a need for God but relies on themselves. 
A. Wisdom, Counsel 
B. Power, Might, Authority 
C. Abilities 
D. Followers 
E. I know better than God 
 
 
3. Hears and understands what God says but ignores it. 
 
 
 
4. A clear picture of who God is but chooses only to bring Him along just in case.
