Fire Cell Pt 3 - THIS AIN'T THAT - 830AM

Sermon Text: Jeremiah 12: 5 -  “If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble[a] in safe country, how will you manage in the thickets by[b] the Jordan?
Sermon Title: Fire Cell Pt. 3 This Ain’t That
Point 1: You have to pass the people test vs. 6 For even your brothers and the house of your father, even they have dealt treacherously with you; they are in full cry after you; do not believe them, though they speak friendly words to you.”
Point 2: You have to pass the pain test 20: 1 – 3 - When the priest Pashhur son of Immer, the official in charge of the temple of the Lord, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things, 2 he had Jeremiah the prophet beaten and put in the stocks at the Upper Gate of Benjamin at the Lord’s temple. 3 The next day, when Pashhur released him from the stocks, Jeremiah said to him, “The Lord’s name for you is not Pashhur, but Terror on Every Side.

Romans 8: 29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son… 
Genesis 1: 27 says we have been made in the image of God.
Point 3: You have to pass the personality test vs. 5 If you have raced with men on foot, and they have wearied you, how will you compete with horses? And if in a safe land are you so trusting, what will you do in the thicket of the Jordan?
