Guerrilla Christianity

Sermon #442 Those who experienced the resurrection first-hand (the apostles, and the many eyewitnesses to Jesus' resurrection as reported by Paul) had a certain boldness to their evangelism.  After all, they had seen the resurrected Jesus in the flesh.  We who have received their eyewitness accounts can also experience this boldness when it comes to conviction of sin.  While the Spirit within us convicts us of sin when we give into temptation, God's Spirit never condemns us - that condemnation was poured out on Jesus at the cross in our place.  So we have boldness before God because our hearts do not condemn us.  This is what John teaches us in his letter today. 1 John 3:16-24 Recorded at Hudson UMC on April 25, 2021 (Originally published on May 4, 2021) Watch on YouTube S.D.G.
