Rev. Cyril A. Stevens – Sermon 0865A recorded on March 11, 1984 teaching from John 5:16-30 – Life in Jesus.
Pastor Cyril A. Stevens preaches on John 5:16-30 as he centers on two key resurrections: a spiritual resurrection experienced upon believing in Jesus, granting believers immediate power and joy, and a future bodily resurrection affecting all humanity, leading to final judgment. Pastor Stevens emphasizes the immediate spiritual power available to believers, contrasting a vibrant, powerful faith with the weakness and complacency he observes in some Christians. He concludes by urging listeners to fully embrace their faith and the transformative power of Jesus, emphasizing that true Christianity is not a somber affair but one of joy, victory, and divine authority.
