Charis New Testament Church

On Earth as it is in Heaven Part 4


Listen Later

In a powerful exploration of divine love and self-worth, Pastor Chad challenges us to confront a profound truth often overlooked in Christian circles: before we can truly love others, we must first learn to love ourselves with the same unconditional love God has for us. Drawing from Matthew 22:36-38, he reveals how religion's emphasis on human depravity has obscured our inherent value as beings created in God's image. Through a compelling analogy of God's investment in humanity – trading Jesus for us – Pastor Chad illustrates our immeasurable worth in the Father's eyes. This revolutionary perspective dismantles the performance-based, conditional love many Christians harbor toward themselves and others, explaining how fear and control have replaced the freedom and affection that should characterize Kingdom relationships. The message culminates in an urgent call to embrace vulnerability, reject isolation, and demonstrate Christ-like love through genuine affection and connection within the church community. As Pastor Chad powerfully concludes, only by accepting and living from God's unconditional love can we fulfill our destiny to transform earth into a reflection of heaven.
