John: Soli Deo Gloria/Jeff Struecker

Big Idea:  Soli Deo Gloria
John 13:31-38
Soli Deo Gloria
1. Letting his glory shine.
John 13:31-32 When he had left, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him. If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once.
2. Led by his glory.
John 13: 33  Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so now I tell you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’
3. Loving for his glory.
John 13: 34-35 “I give you a new command: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
4. Living for his glory.
John 13: 36-38 “Lord,” Simon Peter said to him, “where are you going?” Jesus answered, “Where I am going you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.” “Lord,” Peter asked, “why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.” Jesus replied, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly I tell you, a rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times.
Next Steps

I’ve lived for my glory.  I need God to change my heart for the first time today.
I will put God’s glory above my glory this week.
