"Faith Alone" John 3:13-21 & Galatians 2:15-21 | Sola SeriesIn this message, part of our Reformation sermon series, we explore the hidden meaning behind the "Star of Life" emergency medical symbol and how it connects to salvation through faith alone. Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness for healing, Jesus was lifted up on the cross to give us eternal life. The Israelites couldn't save themselves from the poisonous snakes—and we can't save ourselves from sin.🎯 Maybe you've been trying to save yourself through good works...🎯 Maybe you're trusting in your own righteousness instead of Christ's...🎯 Maybe it's time to discover why faith alone in Jesus is your only hope.🗝️ Key Takeaways:✔️ Salvation comes through faith alone in Jesus Christ, not by our works.✔️ Just as the Israelites looked to the bronze serpent and were healed, we look to Jesus lifted up on the cross.✔️ God used the instrument of death (the cross) to bring life—that's the power of the gospel.📖 Main Scripture:John 3:14-16 (As Moses lifted up the serpent)Galatians 2:16 (Justified by faith in Christ)Numbers 21:8-9 (The bronze serpent)#FaithAlone #SolaFide #Reformation #ChristianSermon #John316 #Galatians #ReformationSunday #SalvationByFaith #ChristianFaith #GospelTruth📖 Worship with us at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Sheboygan Falls:Thursday: 6:30 PM (Informal)Sunday: 8:00 AM (Traditional) | 9:30 AM (Blended) | 11:00 AM (Contemporary)----📌 About St. Paul Lutheran ChurchFounded in 1855, St. Paul Lutheran Church in Sheboygan Falls, WI, has been a steadfast beacon of faith, service, and community for over 165 years.
