    Called Out Of Darkness Into Light

    Contributed by Chuck Gohn on May 18, 2013
     | 9,204 views

    A sermon on what it means for a Christian to be called out of the darkness of the world (e.g., past behaviors, relationships, attitudes, etc.) and called into the Kingdom of the Son.

    About 11 years ago, I received my formal call into ministry. It wasn’t a call from a church. It wasn’t a call from a bishop. It wasn’t even a call from the Pope but that would have been nice. I considered it a direct call from God. You see, I had been struggling with where I ...read more

    Isn't Jesus "the" light of the world? Why does Jesus call us the same?

    You Are the Light of the World Matthew 5:14-16 Like the previous verse concerning the believer being the “salt of the earth”, verse 14 begins with the emphatic “you”. This means that the true disciples of Jesus who hears His words and puts them into practice stands in a unique position as “the ...read more

     | 4,535 views

    The world is covered by a cloud of spiritual darkness. God sent his only begotten son, Jesus as the light of the world; but men loved darkness because of their evil deeds.

    TEXT: 1 Peter 2:9 (NLT) "But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light." Do you know that as a ...read more

    God’s grace cures all spiritual blindness.

    The other week was interesting to say the least. Our whole family was infected with “pink eye.” Joseph had it the worst. His eyes were irritated and red; watery, itchy, and oozy. Pink eye made it hard for him to see. The doctor examined him and put him on an antibiotic drop. God examines our ...read more

     | 20,469 views

    A Secret discipleship does not exist in God's kingdom. Either secrecy destroys discipleship, or discipleship destroys secrecy. Salt in a shaker or a light hidden makes no impact. You are called to poke holes in the darkness. (5 additional illustrations) Updated February 2023.

    A message on being a reflection of God in the darkness of this world
