How do I purify myself? (From Sap to Syrup) (Sermon)
Update: 2025-09-28
Description
At first, it might seem weird (and quintessentially Canadian) to use an illustration about sap and syrup to describe getting ready to meet Jesus, but its an illustration that actually makes a lot of sense.
Its about purification. The apostle John writes: we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure. What John teaches about purification will: (1) help you be better prepared to meet Jesus; (2) make your life more pleasing to God; and (3) improve the quality of your life.
This sermon on 1 John 2:28 - 3:10 explores this topic and provides encouragement forward for those stuck in sinful patterns, and also two practical steps in the process of Christlike purification.
