The First Witness - John 5:31-47 Part 1

What if your very existence was a voice preparing the way for something greater? In this sermon, Pastor Josh Troester dives deep into John 5:31, where Jesus underscores the importance of testimony and witness in validating His claims of divinity. By recounting the powerful story of John the Baptist, who was the prophetic voice heralding the arrival of the Messiah, Pastor Josh urges us to reflect on the significance of our own testimony in a world yearning for truth amidst chaos. Just as John’s radical call for repentance was met with mixed reception, Pastor Josh teaches that our commitment to God's truth may also lead to rejection. Yet, armed with the powerful message of hope, we are called to shine like John—a blazing lamp in the darkness, pointing others to Christ. This message speaks to the heart of every believer, inviting us to step out in faith, pursue righteousness, and share the unfiltered truth of Jesus. Will you embrace this call to be a witness?
