Well, yes, but first things first. He came to be the Saviour of His people and there is no way we can follow His example unless we have asked Him to forgive our sins. Once we have done that all things become possible. It is utterly futile to try to follow the example of Jesus unless you have the power of His Spirit and the Spirit comes when we confess our sins and ask for God's forgiveness which is possible because of the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.Who are His people? All those who come to Him for forgiveness. Jesus said, "Whoever comes to me I will not cast out."
First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.
