This sermon explores the pivotal question, "Who do you say I am?", asserting that Jesus is more than a good teacher; he is the promised King and the Son of the Living God. The message emphasizes that the correct answer to this question leads to a transformed life of surrender and dependence on God's grace, which makes us His beloved children and empowers us to live out our faith.

This sermon teaches that Christian growth, or sanctification, is not about self-improvement but about living into the new identity God has already given us in Christ, who has made us dead to sin and alive to Him. The message emphasizes that this transformed life is an ongoing process of fighting sin through grace-driven effort, rooted in the assurance that God has chosen us as His beloved children and will faithfully complete the work He began.

This sermon explains that sin is not just a collection of bad actions but a fundamental slavery to things other than God, which resulted from humanity's original act of disobedience. The message highlights that while sin brings a separation from God and others, God's wrath and judgment have been satisfied by Jesus' sacrifice, offering grace and reconciliation to all who believe.

This sermon, focusing on Jesus's letter to the church in Laodicea, warns against the spiritual danger of self-sufficiency, which blinds believers to their true spiritual poverty and makes them lukewarm in their faith. The message is a call to repentance, urging Christians to abandon self-reliance and "buy" true spiritual riches from Jesus—forgiveness, righteousness, and spiritual sight—to become zealous and effective in His mission.

This sermon argues that living an unhurried life is possible when we shift our focus from personal ambition to serving God's purpose and others. The message emphasizes that true freedom from the compulsion to hurry comes from a secure identity as a child of God, rooted in the foundational trust that our Heavenly Father is good and has already demonstrated His love for us through Jesus Christ.

This sermon explains that an inconsistent, "yo-yo" faith is often caused by prioritizing feelings, choosing diversion, and pleasing people, rather than walking with God in a disciplined manner. The message emphasizes that the foundation for a consistent, God-pleasing walk is not personal effort but the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ, which frees and motivates believers to pursue a vibrant, daily relationship with Him.

This sermon argues that genuine faith is not about self-reliance but about living a life where Jesus, not ourselves, is the hero of our story. Using the example of Cain and Abel, the message highlights that while we are like Cain in our sinfulness, Jesus, the "truer and better Abel," offered a perfect sacrifice to free us from our self-centeredness and empower us to live by faith, trusting God with all that we are.

This sermon asserts that doubt is a normal part of the Christian experience and can be a catalyst for deeper faith. It outlines a path through doubt that involves actively seeking God through scripture, community, and honest reflection on His greatness and our own limitations.
