The first part of our summer series “Faithful.” Christ Jesus has won victory for every single Christian, and He continues His mercy by using us to do His work in the world. Because of Christ’s faithfulness, we are now acceptable and pleasing before the Father, and all the world ought to see that - whether they embrace the gospel or continue to reject it.

Every Christian struggles at times with assurance; in John 8, Jesus teaches us that we can be certain of our salvation. We are called to abide in Christ, to be absolutely anchored in him alone. When we do this, we are freed from the enslavement and guilt of sin. So we must examine ourselves; do we manifest the obedience, repentance, and freedom that accompany abiding in Christ.

At the end of Jesus’ time at the Feast of Booths in John 7, he makes it clear that the feast, and everything it pointed to, were fulfilled in him. He shows himself to be the only source of true life, deliverance, and salvation, and the call to all people is to trust in him alone.
