Firm in Faith
Over the past few years I have seen and talked to people who have struggled in one of two ways: One is that they feel compelled to DO things (witnessing, devotions etc) not out of wanting to magnify God, but out of a mentality of keeping God happy with them, Not because they’re grateful, but because they're afraid of backsliding or losing their salvation. The other is a feeling of condemnation where every day they are living under the fear of being condemned by God because they've failed somehow.

If scripture is inspired by God, and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and training us in righteousness, then it would seem to me that neglecting the scriptures will render us: untaught, untested, uncorrected, and without training in righteousness. And we all know what children are like who are untaught, uncorrected, and left with no training in right behaviour.

Is faith just wishful thinking?
How is it that during life shattering trials and events we are able to remain joyful and full of faith? What is Faith and why are we able to have such faith? Many mockers of Christianity have tried to teach that faith is the opposite of confidence and knowledge, but they are 100% wrong. Faith is trust in what is certain & knowable.

This message has ruffled many feathers over the years, so hold on to yours carefully as you watch.
Some context: Picture this: You are seated part way towards the back of this rather large church. This is your first time preaching here. There are about 600+ people in the room. As you stand up to sing you start to notice there is something very strange. You can’t see any Bibles scattered over the vacant seats like normal. You strain your head in every direction, but the only Bibles you can see are your own, and your two guests.
Now as you begin your message you decide to give some encouragement to the congregation by suggesting they bring their Bibles to church. But when you say this, a group of people in the front section to your right begin to laugh at this encouragement. What would you say in response? Listen to this message and you will see what John said and understand how it set the tone for the rest of the message.
What’s more disturbing though, is the “laughing section” in the front was where the Pastor and leaders sat!
In a fresh and innovative approach, John Legg addresses the often neglected Biblical teaching of false conversion.
