The sermon titled "A New Authority | John 3:22-36 | Steven Wilhoit | 5-4-2025" by Dwell City Church, explains the concept of Jesus's ultimate authority. It emphasizes that unlike competing earthly authorities, God has provided a supreme authority in Jesus that offers the path to eternal life. The sermon encourages listeners to rejoice in Jesus's divine authority and contrasts this joyous acceptance with the intellectual curiosity of Nicodemus, highlighting that true belief leads to celebration. It also explores the present reality of eternal life for believers and the ongoing wrath of God for those who disobey, rather than these being solely future outcomes. The speaker uses the biblical account of John the Baptist yielding his ministry to Jesus to illustrate this transition to a higher power.
