Committed to Christ

In this message from January 1979, Pastor Jack explores the cost of discipleship, drawing from Peter’s rebuke of Jesus in Matthew 16. He carefully distinguishes between the commitment required for salvation and the commitment needed for God’s redemptive purposes to flow through us. Pastor Jack teaches that while salvation is secure, truly releasing Christ’s life to the world requires sacrifice, surrender of our own plans, and willingness to die to self – yet promises resurrection power and fruitfulness on the other side.
