This sermon from 1 John 3:4-10 addresses the destructive nature of habitual sin and the complete freedom Christ offers believers. The pastor emphasizes that sin is not a point system where good deeds outweigh bad ones, but rather a disregard for God's law that must be confronted and abandoned. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil by taking away the penalty, power, and eventual presence of sin in believers' lives. The message challenges Christians who have "made room" for sin in their lives—accommodating it, planning for it, and keeping it accessible—rather than fighting against it. Through Christ's work on the cross, believers have been adopted into God's family and given both the authority and power to say no to sin. The sermon concludes with a practical call to "audit your provisions"—to identify where we've built infrastructure around sin and cooperate with Jesus in dismantling it through confession, community, and spiritual disciplines.
