In this week's sermon, Pastor Josiah dives into the profound message of Romans 8, emphasizing the theme of 'no condemnation in Christ'. He shares the importance of understanding our freedom from sin through faith in Jesus. Pastor Josiah relates a couple of stories, one involving a father's accidental mistake with his toddler, and another about George Wilson, a man who rejected a presidential pardon. These stories highlight our freedom to choose and the power of accepting Christ's salvation. The sermon encourages us to live by the Spirit, resisting the sinful desires of the flesh, and embracing the fruits of love, peace, and joy as children of God. The heart of the message is that we are saved not by our own deeds, but by God's grace through faith in Jesus, inviting us to a transformative journey with Him. Ultimately, Pastor Josiah reminds us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, and our acceptance of this gift leads to a life filled with the Spirit's peace and God's unconditional love.
