Long Distance Relationship?

All Souls Presbyterian Church

How do you relate to Jesus? How do you relate to Jesus when he is not here, physically, when you can’t see his face, hear his voice, or touch the scars on his hands? That was clearly a question in the early church. From a secular perspective, the church had a PR problem. They said Jesus had risen from the dead, but if so, where was Jesus? We invite people into a relationship with Christ, but where is Christ? We answer, rightly, that he is in Heaven. But what does it look like to have a relationship with someone who is in Heaven? Listen as Pastor Luke Herche preaches on John 14:15–26 showing that in a reciprocal, post-resurrection relationship with Jesus we love him as we keep his commandments, and he loves us by coming to us by his Spirit and speaking to us in his Word. Therefore, we keep his commandments, delight in his presence, and stay in his Word. Part of a series on The Gospel of John. From Sunday Worship, November 3, 2024. allsoulspca.org
