Sermon Overview
Based on the Restoration series, Reidhead explores how God uses the "Right Use of the Law" to bring the believer back to a place of power. He posits that God's "New Thing" is often a return to the "Original Thing"—the life of the Spirit manifested in the local church. He encourages those in "ruins" that the "God of Restoration" is capable of making all things new for His glory.
Key Principles
New Thing/Old Thing:Expect God's "New Thing" to be a restoration of the "Original Power" found in the Book of Acts.
Restoring Foundations:Re-build your life on the foundational truths of the Cross, the Blood, and the Spirit.
Restore the Years: Trust God to "redeem the time" and restore the years you wasted in independent living or sin.
Brokenness to Usefulness: Allow God to "break" your self-strength so He can restore you to a state of true spiritual utility.
Dry Traditions: Refuse to settle for "dead ritual"; demand that your church life be a "New Thing" of the Spirit.
Corporate Move: Pray for a "corporate restoration" where the entire local body returns to its first love.
Former/Latter Rain:Look for the "Outpouring of the Spirit" to attend the restoration of biblical truth in your midst.
