Cultivating Assurance: Assurance of Faith with Joel Beeke

Summary

This sermon focuses on cultivating assurance of faith, distinguishing between the seed of assurance inherent in faith and full assurance, which develops over time. It references the Westminster Confession, Chapter 18, and 2 Peter 1:10, emphasizing that while true believers may experience difficulty in attaining full assurance, they are exhorted to diligently pursue it through the ordinary means of grace. The practical takeaway is that this diligent pursuit leads to greater peace, joy, and strength in obedience, a process akin to an acorn growing into a mighty oak.
