LEAVE NOTHING UNDONE

Joshua 11:15

Leave Nothing Undone

Joshua 11:15 As the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did. He left nothing undone of all that the Lord had commanded Moses.


Matthew 23:23 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.

Introduction

Joshua did not leave any command of God undone.

Jesus said we must obey ALL the commands, not just the big ones or just the small ones.

We must seek to obey ALL the requirements in the New Testament.

1 - Attendance

I come Sunday morning – Isn't that enough?

Hebrews 10:25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

When Christians assemble there is support, encouragement, edification, learning, stronger faith, deeper love for God – and many other blessings that result.

2 - Omissions

James 4:17 Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

Sins of Commission = doing what is forbidden – kill, steal, lie, fornication, covet, etc.

Sins of Omission = failing or refusing to do the positive commands – pray, worship, love neighbor, share

3 - Communion

Many observe communion – 2 – 4 times a year

Christians partook each Sunday –

Acts 20:7a Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread

3 - Communion

Do it in the right way –

1 Corinthians 11:27-29 27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

4 - Give

2 Corinthians 9:6-7 6 But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. 7 So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

Freely, willing, not at debt you owe

Giving is an expression of your gratitude

Don't leave giving undone!

5 - Sing

Many defend vocal and oppose instrumental music in worship

Song – Come, We That Love the Lord (verse 1)

Come, we that love the Lord, and let our joys be known;

Join in a song with sweet accord,and thus surround the throne.

5 - Sing

Many defend vocal and oppose instrumental music in worship

BUT – they do not sing

Song – Come, We That Love the Lord (verse2)

Let those refuse to sing who never knew our God;

But children of the heavenly Kingmay speak their joys abroad.

Don't leave singing – undone!

6 - Salvation

Faith in Jesus

Don't leave this undone!

John 8:24 Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

Luke 13:3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.

Acts 17:30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,

Confess Christ


Romans 10:9-10 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

6 - Salvation

Be Baptized


Mark 16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.


Joshua did ALL that God commanded

Jesus commands us to do all the commands of God, not just some.

Many think the Bible is a cafeteria - “pick and choose” what you want

Have you done all that

God has commanded?
