Pastor Chris Anderson concludes our time in John 10 with a sermon that touches on many profound and beautiful Christian doctrines including Salvation, the Deity of Christ, the Exclusivity of Christ, the Trinity (versus modalism), Eternal Life, Eternal Hell, and Eternal Security. With so many highlights to choose from picking a snippet from today's message proved difficult, so please read this excerpt but then click the link and listen.
“Let me appeal to you . . . the very concept of eternal life demands eternal security. It is nonsensical to describe temporary eternal life … If He grants you eternal life, then that life cannot be lost. You'll never perish, He's promised so.
“You say, well what if I sin a lot?
“Then I pray that God convicts you and you repent of that sin, but that sin is not going to pluck you out of Jesus' hand. You were put into his hand in spite of your sin because of His sacrifice. You can't be lost from His hand because of sin!
“Sin??
“1 John 1:7 says the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from how much sin? From ALL sin. You didn't deserve to be put into His hand when you were put there, and you don't deserve to stay there. It's not about you.
“It's about the great Savior you have.”
