Transcript: Faith in Jesus Christ: Christian Teachings, Bible Studies, and Prayer

Music Music We have seen and coursed through God's word of how our Heavenly Father, God, provided a marvelous and wonderful salvation from all the consequences of man's rebellion since the fall in the garden. You've learned that this salvation comes through your repentance by faith. And then after that, God expects us to change our allegiance. Oh yes, our total allegiance that we must now serve and love him with all of our hearts and all of our souls and all of our minds. This is the commitment that you made to him and his son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit of God given to you at the time of this so wonderful and great salvation. You must now forsake your old selfish and corrupt desires your old ways and ideals You have seen and you have experienced that God desires to set you free from every stronghold of oppression of sickness and sin and you are learning as well in your change of allegiance that you need to believe God and his promises with a living and vibrant faith We must have a living faith that is responsive to God and his commands. This living faith is where the embodiment of all truth is contained. And all truth is found and contained only in Jesus Christ, God's own Son. In the book of John 14, verse 6, the Gospel of John 14, 6, Jesus declares, I am the way and the truth and the life, and no one comes to the Father except by, through me. This means that our way, our truth, our life is contained and bound, enclosed and held in one through our personal faith in him. And we can only know this truth that is found through faith in Christ if we live and dwell in him through the keeping of his commands which is called practicing the knowledge of the truth Jesus said in the Gospel of John 8 31 to the people who were listening to him giving testimony of himself in John 8 31 The book of John 8, 31, If you abide in my word, and you hold fast to my teachings, and live in accordance with them, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. Hallelujah! I think we can all shout, Hallelujah! The just or the righteous will live by faith. As we have previously said before, this living faith is where the embodiment of all truth is contained and all truth in eternal life is found and contained only in Christ Jesus, God's own Son. Our beautiful Lord, gives us the command found in John's Gospel, John 15, 5, that we must remain in Him, that is to live and dwell and have our being in Him in order to continually grow and have our existence and vital subsistence and genuineness in Him. In John 15, 5, I am the vine, you are the branches. whoever lives in me and I in him bears much abundant fruit apart from me cut off from vital union with me you can do nothing If a person does not dwell in me, he is thrown out like a broken off branch and withers. Such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire and they are burned. Verse 7. If you live in me, abide vitally united to me. My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts. Ask whatever you will and it shall be done for you. Again, this means that our way, our truth, our eternal life is contained and bound and wrapped up in, enclosed, held in one through our personal faith in him. Hallelujah. Jesus Christ is the embodiment of where this living faith and where the embodiment of all truth is contained. And all truth in eternal life is found and contained only in Jesus Christ, God's own Son.
