Jesus is Light and Freedom // John 8:1-32

The Light of the World and True Freedom

Sermon Outline: https://jesus-light-freedom-s3gu6dd.gamma.site/

In this powerful message, "Jesus is Light & Freedom", we dive into the life-changing claims of Jesus Christ in John 8:12-32. This sermon starts with the dramatic account of Jesus and the woman caught in adultery and moves into His revolutionary declaration: "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of life".

Pastor Nathan first considers whether John 1-11 are actually part of the scriptures and how we can discuss the subject without losing faith in the Word of God.

Are you walking in spiritual darkness or bound by sin? Discover the kind of true freedom that only Jesus offers—a freedom from sin and death that is eternal and transcends all earthly, political, and circumstantial bondage. Jesus is more concerned with setting your soul free than with your external circumstances. This is the Light of Life that guides us to be holy, righteous, and to enjoy the very presence of God.

Key Takeaways:

What it means to follow Jesus as the Light of the World (John 8:12).
Understanding the eternal and transcendent nature of freedom in Christ.
The difference between biological and spiritual heirs of Abraham (Discipleship).
The life-or-death choice: believe in Jesus and live, or die in your sin (John 8:24).

🔥 CALL TO ACTIONIf you have not yet confessed Christ, stop playing the Christian game and cry out to Him in prayer today. Believe, and Jesus pays your debt of sin on the cross.
