God’s True and Complete Revelation (1 Corinthians 2:6-16)

Summary

This sermon refutes the idea that Christians must have direct, new revelation from the Holy Spirit to be truly connected to God. Drawing on 1 John 2:20-27 and critiquing the views of theologian Schleiermacher, it argues that true spirituality is characterized by a love for God's external, objective Word as found in the Bible. The practical takeaway is that a genuine love for and hunger for Scripture is a mark of true conversion and the Spirit's work in a believer's life.
