Sermons About Eternal-life
Confidence
Do you have proof that you are a citizen of heaven? Do you have confidence that you are a citizen of God’s Kingdom? Many struggle with doubts in this area. In the apostle John’s first letter, he told his hearers that they could have “confidence” that they were members of God’s eternal Kingdom by receiving and believing in His Son, Jesus. We can know this confidence that comes from receiving and believing in Christ as our Savior. The text gives four steps to having confidence and assurance of your salvation.

WHAT IS THE GOSPEL? (1 Corinthians 15:1-11) 06-07-09 [Note: the first few minutes of this Sermon did not get recorded]
NOTE: the first few minutes of this sermon did not get recorded. Read the "Introduction" below and the Scripture passage (1 Corinthians 15:1-11) before listening to this message. INTRODUCTION: --> Today’s Topic: Theology/the gospel. --> Background to “the gospel” (“good news”): In the Old Testament [see Isaiah 40:9; 52:7-10; 60:6; 61:1]; In the Roman World [the good news (proclaimed) related to the Emperor (i.e. his birth, accomplishments, military victories, etc.)]; **In the New Testament [“the gospel of God” (Ro 1:1; 1Th 2:2,9), “the gospel about Jesus Christ” (Mk 1:1; Ro 15:19); “the gospel of God’s grace” (Ac 20:24); “the gospel of peace” (Eph 6:15); “the gospel of your salvation” (Eph 1:13); and “the gospel of the glory of Christ” (2 Co 4:4).” **Taken from the New International Dictionary of the Bible]; --> A Definition of the Gospel [“… the embracing category that holds much of the Bible together, and takes Christians from lostness & alienation from God all the way through conversion & discipleship to the consummation, to resurrection bodies, and to the new heaven & the new earth.”—D.A. Carson]. {The Outline below was adapted from John Stott & D.A. Carson}. THE GOSPEL is Christ-Centered & Theological: therefore Live & Preach a Christ-Centered Faith. THE GOSPEL is Biblical & Apostolic: therefore Think Biblically about the Gospel (see Acts 7:1ff; 13:13ff; Galatians 3:1ff); and Heed the Preaching of the Gospel. THE GOSPEL is Universal & Personal: therefore Believe God’s Life-changing Truth and Power. THE GOSPEL is Historical & Eschatological (Eschatological refers to the 2nd Coming of Christ, the overthrow/end of evil, and the ushering in of Christ’s kingdom): therefore Persevere in the Gospel by Faith.

We Believe...in life everlasting
We believe...and we are never the same. We have believed the good news that God rescues sinners in Jesus and it changed our lives forever. What did we believe and how did it change us? What do we believe and how do we change us? Christianity means something and that belief was handed down to us as the means of having fellowship with God. Come...believe...and you will never be the same. We believe in life everlasting.
