The Down Payment On Heaven Series

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 14, 2025

This sermon explains that the Holy Spirit acts as God's divine down payment, or "earnest," guaranteeing our full future inheritance and securing us until our final redemption, all for the ultimate purpose of bringing praise to God's glory.

That down payment does two very important things. First, it proves you are serious about the purchase. Second, ...read more
