This Week's Sermon
Spiritual Blessings
Vision
Ted Schroder - May 12, 2013
“I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened…” (Eph.1:18 NIV) “I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can see something of the future Christ has called you to share.” (Eph.1:18 TLB) “I ask God to make you intelligent and discerning in knowing him personally, your eyes focused and clear, so that you can see exactly what it is he is calling you to do, grasp the immensity of this glorious way of life he has for us Christians.” (The Message) Vision is the ability to see clearly.

Yet that is the condition of all human beings. All of us are sinners, and our sin blinds us from seeing God. more » Read the complete sermon in Adobe (.pdf) format. |
