Rev Bill

I have posted today’s sermon on my sermon blog. It’s the first part of a series on “Who We Are” where I use 1 Peter 2:9 as a description of who God calls us to be — and then use different passages — today John 1:1-14 — as examples of how we can become the people God calls us to be.

The first step I present in this process is walking in the light of Christ. Today’s sermon is based on John 1:1-14 and entitled “Called To Glory“.

Here’s a portion of it:

We are called to be the glorious people of God – called to show to the world the glory of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To do this, we must to respond to – and follow – the glorious light of God that has come into our world in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

It’s up to us to decide to do this – to respond to the glorious light of God that has come into our world in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ – and be the glorious people of God – called to show to the world the glory of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

You know — the sun shines on everybody. If you want to you can sit in the sun. If you prefer, you can sit in a cave. Your choice doesn’t stop the sun from shining. It just means you decline to derive benefit from its heat. It’s the same way with Christ. His light continues to shine, but not everybody responds to it.

Will you respond to the light of God – to Christ?
