Christ in You

In this enlightening sermon, Pastor Cary explores the profound concept of "Christ in you, the hope of glory," emphasizing the transformative power of Jesus living within believers. The message begins by highlighting the importance of praise and worship in the life of a church, and the desire for signs, wonders, and miracles as evidence of God's presence.

The speaker reflects on Jesus' struggle in the Garden of Gethsemane, drawing parallels to the personal struggles believers face in aligning their will with God's. The sermon underscores that when we accept Jesus as our Savior, the Holy Spirit comes to live within us, bringing profound changes and baptizing us into Christ.

Exploring various scriptures, including Colossians 1:27 and John 3, the message explains that being born again involves the Holy Spirit and leads us into God's family. The analogy of marriage is used to illustrate the unity and mutual submission required in our relationship with God. The speaker emphasizes that just as a husband and wife become one flesh, believers are to become one spirit with God, aligning their will with His.

The sermon also touches on the struggle of maintaining unity in marriage and in our spiritual walk, highlighting the need for daily submission to God's will. The speaker calls for believers to put to death their sinful desires and live out their new identity in Christ. The message concludes with a prayer for the congregation to be filled with the Holy Spirit, guided by God's will, and empowered to live out their faith with clarity and purpose.
