Description
In a world filled with uncertainties and dangers, fear is a common emotion that many people struggle with. However, as Christians, we are called to live a life free from fear, especially when it comes to the ultimate judgement day. In a powerful message based on 1 John 4:17-18, Pastor Jensen delves into the concept of perfect love casting out fear and how it relates to our faith in Christ. The passage begins by highlighting the idea that love is perfected in us when we have confidence in the day of judgement. It emphasizes that fear involves punishment, but perfect love casts out fear. The message emphasizes that as Christians, we should not live in fear of judgement day. Instead, we should find assurance in our faith in Jesus Christ and dwell in the love of God. Pastor Jensen stresses that salvation is more than just being rescued from eternal punishment; it is about living a life of joy and confidence in the work of Jesus Christ. In conclusion, the message encourages believers to understand and internalize the love of God in order to overcome fear, especially the fear of judgement day. By repenting of sin and placing our faith in Jesus Christ, we can find true freedom from fear and live a life of confidence and assurance in God's love. As we reflect on the powerful message of 1 John 4:17-18, may we be reminded that perfect love casts out fear, and that through Christ, we can live a life free from the bondage of fear and insecurity. Let us hold fast to the truth that nothing can separate us from the love of God, and find peace in knowing that we are secure in His unfailing love. www.ReformedRookie.com Podcast: https://anchor.fm/reformedrookie Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheReformedRookie Twitter: https://twitter.com/NYapologist Semper Reformanda!
