Joy

This sermon defines true, lasting joy not as happiness in circumstances but as a deep-seated rejoicing in the Lord Jesus Christ, a joy that is only possible when we stop trusting in our own self-righteous "filthy rags" and instead receive His perfect righteousness.

This sermon asserts that when we gaze at the cross, we see God's ultimate power and love, which transformed the heart of a Roman centurion who realized his lack of control.
