Sermon
A Spiritual Vaccine (cont)
by Pastor Roy Esposito
Isaiah 55:11 – God’s Word doesn’t return to Him empty and without fruit.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 – His plan for us gives us HOPE for a future that’s fruitful.
Proverbs 3:5 – Trust in Him with all you HEART
Levels of Truth:
Inferior Truth – Is informed by our own understanding – no real answers just speculations
Speculations are uncertainties
Uncertainties cause anxieties
Anxiety is a precursor to FEAR
FEAR is the opposite of FAITH
Faith gives us confident expectation
Superior Truth – God loves us – Is with us – Is in us!
Psalm 23:4 – “I will fear no evil, for You are with me.”
Joshua 1:5-9
The Superior Truth doesn’t cancel the Inferior –It over-rides it!
The Spiritual Vaccine is not just the belief that God is with us. It is also the belief that we are with God – ONE with Him and partners with Him in this world and in this life,
Thank you to Rabbi Marc Gellman for his inspiration.
