2 Corinthians 4:16-18
16 Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day.
17 For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison,
18 while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Introduction:
Theme: Three transcendent principles for your Christian life so you won’t live in the now.
I. The body that’s passing is not the person who’s lasting …..so accept the inevitable and focus on the inconceivable vs.16
II. The trials you face are only for a season but the reward is forever. …..so learn to weigh your temporal trials in light of eternity vs.17
III. The things that you see are not the things that will last……so quit looking at what you see and start looking at what you can’t vs.18
