John 8:37-47 Who is your Father?

About this episode

The sermon explores the implications of who we belong to based on our response to Jesus.

A sermon that shows us that who we truly belong to in this life will be demonstrated by the way we respond to Jesus. Jesus says that the Pharisees, thinking they belong to the Father who is God actually belong to their Father the Devil. If they had belonged to God their response to Jesus would have been to love him. Jesus says this is all because 'his word finds no place in them'. Does His word find a place in you to dwell richly? Do you love Jesus? if so then perhaps God is your Father. There are only two options.
