Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. (John 15:3) 1/ Three years the disciples had heard the word - Leviticus 19:23-24 2/ Judas had been expelled from among the disciples - John 13:10-11 & John 13:27-30 3/ Clean through the preaching of the word today. Sermon summary The sermon explores the cleansing power of God's Word, drawing parallels from Levitical law, the expulsion of Judas, and the ongoing purification of the Church. It emphasizes that believers are made clean not through works but through faith in Christ's sacrifice and through consistent engagement with Scripture, which serves as a source of truth, instruction, and ongoing sanctification. The message cautions against spiritual pride and the allure of novel teachings, urging listeners to remain grounded in the foundational truths of the Gospel and to discern between genuine spiritual guidance and the influence of error, ultimately highlighting the Lord as the faithful husbandman who prunes and nurtures His people through His unchanging Word.
