10 1 Timothy 2:1-7 Prayer: The foundation of a life lived on mission The Gospel: The core of a life lived on mission You and me: Examples of lives lived on mission! Isaiah 53:4-6 (NIV) Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows; yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. 10

11 Isaiah 53:4-6 (NIV) But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. Isaiah 53:4-6 (NIV) We all, like sheep, have gone astray; each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Psalm 130:3-4 (NIV) If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand? But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared. 11

12 Psalm 51:1-2 (NIV) Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. Psalm 32:5 (NIV) Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the LORD and you forgave the guilt of my sin.

13 Isaiah 43:25 (NIV) I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more.
