The Editors of The King’s Business invite readers to contribute outlines for sermons for use in this column. JESUS AS SAVIOUR AND KING I. His Saving Name. “Thou shalt call his name Jesus.” Jesus means “ Saviour.” He saves us from: 1. Sin (Matt. 1:21). From its defiling and condemning power, from the love of it, and from the wrath that is to come because of it. 2. Self (Gal. 2 :2 ). Self-wisdom, self effort, and self-righteousness are all enemies from which we need to be delivered, and from which we are saved when Jesus reigns within. 3. This present evil world (Gal. 1:4). By being crucified with Christ, we are crucified to the world and the world to us. II. His Wonderful Character. 1. Great in His origin (Isa. 9 :6 ). 2. Great in His love (1 John 4 :10). 3. Great in His power (Lk. 1:37). 1. He shall have a throne (Lk. 1:32; cf. Jer. 2 3 :5 ; Psa. 132:11; Rev. 22: 16). 2. He shall reign over the house of Jacob (Lk. 1:33; cf. Dan. 7:13, 14). 3. His kingdom shall have no end Lk. 1:33; cf. Rev. 11:15; 1 Tim. 6:14-16).

Christ—Our Refuge of Hope. Cities of refuge were the only hope. II. Christ—A Common Refuge. 1. Cities open to all sinners. 2. No distinctions between rich and poor. 3. But no self-righteous admitted. III. Christ—A Ready Refuge. 1. Cities easily accessible. 2. Always available. IV. Christ—A Safe Refuge. 1. Killers were secure inside walls of city of refuge. 2. We are secure in Christ. V . Christ — A Personal Refuge. 1. Cities for those who realized their sin. 2. For those who took advantage of safety. V I. Christ — A City of Growth. 1. Occupants changed their lives by living with the Levites. 2. We are changed if we keep in contact with Christ. VII. Christ—A Satisfying Refuge. 1. Needs of those inside city supplied. 2.
