The Adoption of the Believer

Summary

This sermon emphasizes that salvation is by faith alone in Jesus Christ, apart from any works, as highlighted by a renewed look at the book of Galatians and the doctrine of adoption. The core message is that all other religions and false forms of Christianity teach a deceptive lie that salvation comes through human effort, a lie stemming from Satan. The practical takeaway is the urgent need to understand and defend the true gospel for the sake of honoring God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit, and for the effectiveness of the church's mission in the world.
