Sermon
Confident in Your Standing
Mercy Hill Church - Cincinnati
Speaker: Ernie Bonnoitt
March 28, 2022 · 33 min
Summary
Drawing from 1 John 2:28-3:1, the pastor argues that confidence before God comes through intimate relationship with Jesus, not personal performance. Christians find their identity as beloved children of God and should live out of that relational reality rather than anxious self-effort.
Highlights
You are not what you do. You are not your past. You are not what you look like or what the world says is important. You are who Christ says you are.
When you're abiding with Christ, you're gonna hear, hey son, hey daughter, that is who you are. That is who you are.
Don't find confidence in what you do for God. Find confidence in your relationship with God. By who he says you are.
