Pt. 8 - Irresistible Correction
• Series: CHURCH DNA
In this sermon titled "Irresistible Correction," Pastor Chris emphasizes the necessity and spiritual significance of correction in the Christian life. Drawing from Proverbs 12:1 and Hebrews 12:4-13, he reminds the congregation that correction is a central part of God's love and discipline, designed to shape believers into the likeness of Jesus. The pastor humorously reflects on personal experiences with correction, particularly from his wife, to highlight how we often resist being corrected. However, he stresses that in the journey of faith, accepting correction is crucial for growth and holiness. True correction, he explains, comes from those who love us, seek God’s guidance, and point us toward Christ. By embracing correction, Christians demonstrate their willingness to grow in godliness and peace, aligning their lives with Jesus’ example rather than their own self-righteousness. The pastor concludes that correction, when done with love and wisdom, is not just a challenge but an irresistible part of becoming more like Christ.
