No Turning Back – Paul M. Williams
Manage episode 430253678 series 1008614
Hebrews 12:1-2
I’ve watched a number of races in my time from 100m to 10,000m. I’ve seen runners fall unexpectedly and get back up to win gold! I’ve seen runners have their dreams shattered by an injury mid-way through the race — I’ve seen them get back up and hobble the final lap to cross the finish line. For sure, I’ve seen disappointments and setbacks on the track, but there’s one thing that I’ve never yet witnessed and that is a runner running back to the starting line!! Yet what is considered an absurdity in the natural is sadly a common reality in the spiritual. I see Christian athletes turning back all the time. Running in the wrong direction!!
This sermon is a call to self-denial, to pick the cross and to follow Christ!
