High Five for
Salvation
Today’s
sermon at Grace City was “How Do You Know That You Know?” Corey preached how doubt about whether we are
saved takes power away from us. We spent
ten weeks in 1st John and Corey cites 1st John 5: 19, “We
know that we belong to God, while the whole world is under the evil one.” Corey says one thing that causes us to be
unsure about our salvation is that we think we have to earn love and God’s unconditional
love is hard for us to process. Knowing
we are saved is a liberating feeling and should fill us with joy, yet instead
of expressing that joy, we, as Shakespeare would say, “fret and strut our hour
upon the stage.” What would it look like
to have not only the assurance of salvation, but also the joy of that
salvation?
Last
year I went to a family reunion in Richmond.
On Sunday, we went to church as a family and that service stays with me
today. Whenever I am down, I look at a
short clip my wife shot during the service.
The music was outstanding, but the highlight for me was the interaction
of the pastors. At one point, you will
see two of the pastors “High Five” each other.
We High Five over the clever remark in the workplace, the accomplishments
of our favorite sports team and other events.
How about giving salvation a High Five?
Snappy comebacks fade from memory, the triumphs of sports teams come and
go, but salvation is forever. Long after
the confetti from championship celebrations has swept up, we still have
salvation ahead. No matter what this
world puts in our way, we know from 1st John 5:4 that, “Everyone
begotten of God conquers the world, and the power that has conquered the world
is this faith of ours.” So let us be assured
in our salvation and express the joy of that knowledge. Be like these men of God and give a High Five
for salvation.
