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)
Summary
The central message is that unbelief is the primary obstacle preventing us from experiencing the full privileges of being a child of God. The speaker draws parallels from the Parable of the Talents and the story of the older brother, emphasizing that our own doubt about God's promises is the fault. To combat unbelief, the speaker advises two practices: actively encouraging one another regarding God's promises, and regularly taking inventory of God's past faithfulness by remembering His benefits.
