2 Corinthians: Jesus is our Righteousness

Andrew Allison · Listen

Sermon Questions 2 Corinthians 5:14-21

1. Do you have a relationship in your life that is unreconciled? Without using names describe what that feels like. What would it take to reconcile with that person?

2. God says that He is unreconciled with the world. What has He  done to make things right?

3. As a rule, face to face is the way to reconcile a relationship. God sends believers on a Mission of reconciliation with everyone who does not believe and remains at odds with Him. What counsel in the passage is most helpful to you on that Mission?

4. What does it mean (v. 17) “the old is gone the new is here!”  Do believers still sin? So what difference does the ‘new’ make?

5. Pray about an opportunity to tell someone about the heart of God for reconciliation this Christmas. And maybe also pray about an unreconciled relationship in your life.

Baptism

June 8, 2025
Empowered Baptism is recognized throughout the Church as the beginning of a ‘God thing.’ John’s baptism was a visible demonstration of the start of a new life — clearing out the junk to prepare for what God was about to do. Jesus’ baptism reveals the true heart of baptism: God’s desire to bless and express His delight. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the start of the Kingdom. Ordinary women and men were now filled with the Spirit of Jesus to continue on the ministry Jesus started.

Luke 3:21-22 -At Jesus’ baptism, the Father said, “You’re my son. I love you. I’m proud of you.” As Christians, our baptism is a sign that we are in Christ, that what is true about him is true about us, and that the Father’s blessing now defines us.

Baptism

Luke 3:1-20 - The first mention of baptism in the Bible begins with John. John was the cousin of Jesus and also His opening act. John called the people of his day to "Get Ready." The public sign of a life getting ready for God was, and still is, baptism. Get washed so God can do what God wants to do.
