Summary
The sermon uses the story of the man at the pool of Bethesda to illustrate that Jesus's primary question to us is, "Do you want to be well?" This question challenges us to examine whether our prolonged struggles or afflictions have caused us to lose hope in God's power to heal and restore. Ultimately, God desires to know if we still believe in His promises, even when our experiences suggest otherwise.
Description
Speaker: Jeremy Utley Title: Do You Want To Be Well? Date: 10-07-2018 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)

Jeremy Utley - It Must Be So: Expecting God to Fulfill All of His Promises
Jeremy Utley · Mar 29, 2026
Jeremy Utley teaches that Christians must actively claim God's promises in the present, not merely recall them as historical facts. Using Joshua 21:45, he argues that we memorize Scripture to wield it as a weapon against Satan's lies that God's promises don't apply to us today, and that bold faith in God's promises—not presumption or arrogance—is our birthright as New Covenant believers filled with the Holy Spirit.
