In this sermon, the message centers on the purpose of God bringing His people into unity with Himself and with one another. Using John 17:22-23, the sermon shows that Christ did not simply come to improve our lives outwardly, but to bring us into a true union with Him. Through faith, the believer is called into a new nature, being made one with Christ and increasingly conformed to His life.

The sermon also explains that this work is more than just confirmation of belief, it is conformation to Christ. Through scriptures like Galatians 2:20, Romans 6:4, Colossians 3:1, and Ephesians 2:4-6, the message points to the reality that the old man has been crucified with Christ and the believer is called to walk in newness of life. Rather than seeing the flesh as something standing between “me and God,” the sermon reminds us that God and the believer now stand together against the flesh, as we mortify its deeds through the Spirit and live in the life of Christ.
