Wandering in the Wilderness of Sin - 2nd March 2025
Speaker: Pastor Mason Smith of Multination Church Frankfurt
Title: Entering the Wilderness
Theme: A Call for True Repentance from Sin
Sermon Scripture: Joel 2:1-2; 12-17 (Luke 4:1-13; Romans 8:31-39)
Opening Scripture: Luke 4:1-13
How often do we quickly fall to the pressures of temptation? We fail. We give in. We sin. Then, we cry out, make a big show of sorrow, and promise to never do it again–only to turn around and commit the same act. God does not want our showy acts of contrition! “Tear your heart, not your clothes…” He desires that we yield to the Spirit and open ourselves to true transformation.
True, we will never be sinless. Thank God for Grace and for Jesus’ sacrifice upon the cross! However, are we even trying? Do we strive for it? Christ, in the wilderness, demonstrates His power over temptation. Christ is dwelling in us! We are more than conquerors! Lent is a time to take our sin seriously and seek transformation in Christ!
