Entitlement | 7 Deadly Sins of Suburbia | Jonathan Pokluda
SUMMARY
Has there ever been a time in your life when you were frustrated or complained because something didn’t make sense to you? Because you didn’t get what you wanted? As we continue our series, 7 Deadly Sins of Suburbia, JP teaches us about the sin of entitlement by studying Luke 14:1-14.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
-What are things we feel entitled to? Comfort, health, time, food, money, safety, salvation, love…what is it for you?
-Want to know a sure fire way to know what you feel entitled to? What do you complain about? Whatever you complain about, that’s what you are entitled about.
-Don’t fall victim to a counterfeit version of Christianity and be OK with it.
-Should Christians ever take the best seat?
-Entitlement is focusing on what you deserve.
-As Christians, we are to use whatever God has entrusted us with to serve others.
-Discomfort kills entitlement. There is no comfortable solution to entitlement.
-Entitlement is the air we breathe. It impacts everything about us.
-For entitled people, it rarely feels like things are going their way.
-Entitlement leads to disappointment.
-Every disappointment you’ve ever experienced comes from your expectations.
-Entitled people are perpetually frustrated.
-You cannot be thankful for what you feel entitled to.
-Christians in America have a lot to be thankful for, and on the whole, we are terrible at being grateful for most of it.
-Want to grow in gratitude? Ask God to take away anything you aren’t grateful for.
-Grateful people always win. Entitled people always lose.
-We change entitlement by changing our perspective.
-What is your role in “the party” that is life? The host, or the guest? Make no mistake, as a Christian, it’s always the host.
-We are masters at manipulating the rules or the system in our favor.
-The Christian (or biblical) worldview says life on this world is a limited amount of time to serve as many people as you can serve before spending forever in heaven with God.
-All we actually deserve is hell. However, an infinitely good God gave us everything we need to be with Him through Christ.
-If something is true, even if no one around you lives or acts like it, it is still true.
-The gospel kills entitlement.
-Practicing gratitude kills entitlement.
-Ask people near you this week: am I a grateful person? Does gratitude mark my life?
-Ask God what you are entitled to.
MENTIONED OR RECOMMENDED RESOURCES
-Suggested Scripture study: Luke 14:7-14; Philippians 2:3; 1 Peter 5:5; James 4:10; Luke 13:30; Mark 10:45; Philippians 2:6-8
-Sermon: Busyness
