Summary
We need invitations to walk in the fullness of the Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit, and the freedom of the Spirit. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson offers these invitations and discusses why it's important to cultivate and pursue spiritual things. He explores several passages from the gospel of John, showing how the apostle invites readers to believe in Jesus and the spiritual realm. Once we are born again and receive salvation, we need to increasingly learn what it means to walk as disciples and servants of God, allowing the Holy Spirit to equip us to accomplish His purposes in our generation.
