Stephen Matthew - Fulfilment

About this episode

Stephen Matthew discusses the conversation between Jesus and Peter, emphasizing the importance of focusing on Jesus rather than comparing ourselves to others.

On Sunday 15th February, guest speaker Stephen Matthew shared a message about the conversation between Jesus and the Apostle Peter in John 21, in which Jesus reinstates Peter three times. Before Peter went on to do great things, there was still one subtle character flaw that needed to be addressed. Turning to the Apostle John, Peter asked Jesus, "What about him?" The human condition is to compare, crave, compete and to copy, whereas Jesus is calling each of us, like Peter, to follow him. If we fix our eyes on Jesus rather than on other people, we will find ourself, be free, be fulfilled and be fruitful! -------- For more information about Breathe New Life Church or if you'd like to make a decision to follow Jesus, visit our website here: https://breathenewlife.church/becomeachristian
