God Will Lead His People All The Way Home
Series: What We Teach: The GBC Doctrinal Statement
Text: Jeremiah 32:36-41
One: Justification is a legal declaration of righteousness.
- Not by my works.
- By faith in Christ's work.
- God declares me "not guilty".
Two: Sanctification is a continuing progress in righteousness.
- I choose obedience.
- In the power of the Spirit and the Word.
- God makes me more like Christ.
Three: Perseverance is an enduring strength for righteousness.
- Rooted in God's promise.
- Sealed by God's Spirit.
- God keeps me from falling away.
...To those who are called, beloved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ: may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. ~Jude 1-2
