This message teaches that the gospel is good news and emphasizes living daily by grace through faith, based on the finished work of Jesus. Using 2 Corinthians 5:7 and Hebrews 11:1, Pastor Al explains that “sight” refers to the five senses and that believers must leave the sense realm and perceive the unseen realities of God’s Spirit realm. Faith comes by continually hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17), and the Word and faith are presented as inseparable—God’s Word provides evidence and conviction for what cannot be sensed.

From Colossians 2:9–10, 2 Peter 1:3, and John 6:35, he shares that Christians already have all they need and should live “God-inside minded,” not striving in their own strength. He explains Spirit-filled living, including speaking in tongues as a means of personal growth.

In this message continuing a series on “chilling with God,” Pastor Al teaches that believers can relax in God’s unconditional love because they are righteous through Jesus’ obedience, not their own.He explains that the “flesh” is an ungodly way of thinking in the soul, while the believer’s spirit is made new at salvation, and he frames “sin” as a noun—an invading, person-like “parasite” and Satan’s “asset” that plants tempting thoughts.Using examples like porn, bitterness, resentment, and distrust in marriage, he shares that believers are not the source of sinful thoughts and should stop identifying themselves as dirty or condemned.The solution is renewing the mind, taking thoughts captive (2 Cor. 10:5), resisting lies regardless of volume or frequency, and answering temptation with Scripture, remembering believers are God’s workmanship and as Christ is, so are they in this world.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support

Pastor Al explains why believers have sinful thoughts. He defines “the flesh” (sarx) not as the physical body but as an old way of thinking—residual “software” trained by the former nature. Drawing from Romans 8, Galatians 5, Colossians 2, and other passages, he describes the flesh as a way of thinking, self-effort, and rule-based religion. He explains that the answer is to renew the mind with God's Word, walk by the Spirit, and rely on grace and God's power for growth.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support

Pastor Al teaches that Christianity is simple but often misunderstood due to tradition and “miseducation,” challenging phrases like “die to yourself,” “all of You and none of me,” and “He must increase and I must decrease.” Using scriptures such as Romans 6, Galatians 2:20, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Ephesians 2:6, and 1 John 4:17, he shares that believers are already crucified with Christ, dead to sin and the law, and are a new creation in their spirit with God’s nature and the Holy Spirit within. He clarifies “I die daily” refers to Paul facing danger, not self-denial. The focus is renewing the mind to match the new identity, illustrated by metamorphosis, with simple steps: remember who you are in Christ, enjoy life, repeat.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support
