I am suggesting that every Christian become dangerous, dangerous to the status quo, dangerous to complacency, dangerous to injustice, dangerous to the void that is sucking people up daily.

We need to live dangerously in a sedate world.

So, I created an outline with acronyms and alliteration.

 

D = Dedication

Philippians 3:12-14

“… one thing I do …

 

Humility – I do not consider…

Clarity – …straining… the prize

Intensity – I press…

Tenacity – … God has calmed … let us live up to…

He made he most of them

He found cause to boast in them

He found God was his host in them.
