Jeremy Utley - Take the Fight for Peace Seriously
Summary
The central message is that believers must take the pursuit and evidence of peace very seriously, as it is deeply connected to sanctification. True peace, characterized by the rule of Christ's peace in the heart, is the evidence of cleansing and repentance. When peace is absent, it signals a need to confess sin and seek forgiveness, recognizing that the peace of Christ must rule the heart before one can properly respond to life's disturbances.

Speaker: Jeremy Utley Title: Take the Fight for Peace Seriously Date: 3/22/22 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)

The central message is that a life marked by God's word accomplishing its purpose is characterized by overflowing joy and peace. This peace stems from reconciliation with God through repentance and from actively extending abundant forgiveness to others, mirroring Christ's heart. Furthermore, true discipleship requires letting go of grudges and being humble enough to receive correction.
