The Apostles Didn't Have it All Figured Out Either


Listen Later

Have you ever looked back at what you believed years ago and cringed? Maybe you've wondered if being wrong in the past means you could be wrong now. Or maybe you've felt judged by other Christians because you don't have everything figured out yet. This message is about that struggle. Scripture shows us that God does not teach His children all at once. He teaches patiently, gradually, and mercifully. Even the apostles did not fully understand the gospel from the beginning. They misunderstood Christ's kingdom, struggled with Gentile inclusion, clung to Jewish practices, and had to be corrected years into their ministry. Yet God was patient with them every step of the way. Walking through key passages from John, Acts, Galatians, Philippians, and the Gospels, this message shows that salvation does not rest on perfect theology or flawless understanding. It rests on Christ and His finished work alone. Understanding grows over time, but our standing before God is secure from the start because it is grounded in Christ's righteousness, not our clarity. If you've ever feared that your doubts, questions, or past misunderstandings put your salvation at risk, this message is meant to bring comfort. God saves first, then teaches. He is patient with His children, and He will guide them into truth in His time.
