BuildTogether, Part 4—by Werner Reyneke
June 8, 2025
Sermon recap:
Following Jesus comes with the cost of persecution and rejection. If we face none, it may reveal compromise or conformity to the world. Are we influencing culture—or being influenced by it and compromising our standards? True faith shares Christ boldly, just as the early disciples did. Let’s trust God with courage and live boldly for the One we serve. If you missed the lesson, you can watch it on our
YouTube channel (the lesson starts at 49 mins).
Read Scripture through context, culture, and Christ. Its purpose is to shape us into Jesus’ likeness through love, obedience, and faithfulness.
Jesus built his life on Scripture through prayer, learning and obedience, showing us how to know God deeply and walk daily in his purpose by staying rooted daily.
Saying “no” to sin is saying “yes” to freedom. Through grace, discipline, and daily surrender, we follow Jesus—not perfectly, but faithfully.
