“If Jesus were alive today, He’d…” so begins the meta-narrative that so many in our culture espouse. And, the One who is the same yesterday, today, and forever has spoken. My sermon from John 5:19-47 entitled Hearing and Believing is now online (preached on Sunday, 5/29). Part of what I get at is that if Jesus were alive today, He’d be just as out of step with the culture as He was with first century culture. Why? Because what He had to say had to do with who He is and how we respond to Him. So, do you hear and believe Him? I hope this sermon helps you understand why you should do this.
