Staying consistent in the faith- Rev. Dean Meistre

1 John - The proof of righteousness - Part 5

Test the spirits—how to know what's really from God. In this message, we explore how our beliefs shape the way we live and act. Too often, we place greater emphasis on our feelings rather than on truth—but what if our feelings don’t align with what is true? This raises an important question: Is our understanding of truth defined by the Bible? This is why doctrine matters.

1 John - The proof of righteousness - Part 4

Many people call themselves Christians—but how can you know if your faith is genuine? In 1 John 3, John gives one of the clearest tests of authentic Christianity. Real faith isn’t just about what we say; it’s revealed in how we love, serve, obey, and live.

1 John - The proof of righteousness - Part 3

Many Christians wrestle with an important question: If I still struggle with sin, how can I know that I am truly saved? In this episode, we explore what the Bible teaches about the assurance of salvation, the ongoing reality of sin in the believer's life, and the hope found in God's grace. Together, we examine these questions through the lens of Scripture, offering biblical insight into how believers can have confidence in their salvation while continuing to grow in faith and holiness. Join us as we discover what God's Word says about assurance, repentance, and the transforming work of Christ in the life of every believer.

1 John- Proof of Righeousness - Part 2

As we continue our journey through the book of 1 John, we explore a challenging but essential question: Are we truly living out our faith? Salvation is by grace through faith alone, but genuine faith produces visible fruit in the life of a believer.In this sermon, we examine what Scripture says about the evidence of a transformed heart. If we claim to know Christ, does our daily life reflect that reality? What distinguishes a follower of Jesus from the world around them?   Together, we'll consider how good works are not the root of our salvation, but they are the fruit of a life changed by the gospel.

1 John- The proof of righteousness- Part 1

In a world filled with competing ideas and distorted truths, God's Word remains the reliable guide that leads us to where He intends us to be.  In the book of 1 John, the apostle confronts the false teachings of Gnosticism, which separated spiritual knowledge from practical living. John reminds believers that true faith is not merely intellectual belief or hidden knowledge—it is a life transformed by a relationship with Jesus Christ. This message explores God's call to authentic fellowship with Him and with one another.  Through 1 John, we discover that Christianity is more than a set of doctrines to affirm; it is a way of life marked by obedience, love, truth, and walking in the light. As we allow Scripture to direct our path, we learn how to live out our faith daily and experience the fullness of the fellowship God desires for His people.
