Jeremy Utley - God-less or God-full
Summary
The sermon uses the story of Esau selling his birthright for food to illustrate the difference between a 'godless' and a 'god-full' life. A godless person is dominated by bodily desires and immediate gratification, while a god-full person prioritizes reverence for God and the ultimate reality of meeting Christ. The core message is that we must live with our minds renewed, understanding that the only certain event is meeting Jesus, not the pleasures of this life.
Description
Speaker: Jeremy Utley Title: God-less or God-full Date: 01/22/2023 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 - A Promise Better Than God’s Love
Jeremy Utley · Jan 18, 2022
The speaker argues that while God's love is foundational, it is insufficient to achieve God's ultimate purpose. He posits that God's pleasure is superior to God's love, citing instances like Jesus' baptism and the Transfiguration where the Father declared, "This is my beloved Son; I am happy with him." The central message is that Christians should strive not only to know that God loves them but to live lives that bring Him pleasure.
