In the sermon "Come and See," Pastor Chris discusses the importance of approaching Jesus with open-minded curiosity rather than blind belief. Using John 1:43-51, they emphasize Jesus' invitation to “come and see,” which He extends to His disciples and which we, in turn, are called to extend to others. Jesus' teachings, marked by His unique “truly, truly” statements, invite thoughtful investigation and genuine discipleship. Unlike hyperbolic or exaggerated claims, Jesus' words are absolute truths that call for a response beyond mere acceptance; they challenge listeners to follow, examine, and ultimately transform their lives through Him. The speaker also stresses the role of relationships in growing one's faith, urging Christians to cultivate friendships where hard questions and faith challenges can be addressed openly. Through this invitation, Jesus offers not just insight into God's kingdom but a pathway to heaven, embodying the way, the truth, and the life.
