Jeremy Utley - I MUST Decrease for Christ to Increase
Jeremy Utley · Oct 7, 2025
Jeremy Utley teaches that for Christ to truly increase in our lives, we must decrease—denying our self-will, self-interest, and self-awareness in a daily, costly commitment to discipleship. Drawing from John 3:30 and 2 Corinthians 4:10, he emphasizes that bearing Christ's dying (saying no to our own initiative and will) is the prerequisite for manifesting Christ's life, and that this requires constant vigilance and passion to become nothing so that Jesus becomes everything.
