We see frequent examples in Scripture of why we should rejoice over the results versus the motivation. When other men began to prophesy Joshua was concerned, but Moses rejoiced (Numbers 11:26-29). When a man was casting out demons, the disciples were concerned, but Jesus said to let him continue (Mark 9:38-41). Paul said some people were preaching the gospel with good motivation and others with bad motivation, but he rejoiced that the gospel was being preached Philippians 1:15-18). The prodigal son returned to his father because he was hungry (Luke 15:17). We can rejoice he returned home.

Exodus 12 and Luke 23 connect in a powerful way: Jesus the Passover Lamb is examined publicly and declared innocent—yet still punished so the guilty can go free. This message highlights the necessity of a spotless substitute and the sobering reality that affirming truth about Jesus isn’t the same as saving faith.

Sermon:
The humility of Christ is one of the most astonishing truths in all of Scripture.
Though Jesus is fully God, He did not come into the world displaying royal splendor. He was born in poverty, raised in obscurity, rejected by His own people, mocked as a king, and crucified on a cross—yet He never stopped being King.
In this message from Philippians 2, I explore what Scripture teaches about Christ’s humility, the Incarnation, and why Jesus laid aside His visible glory without surrendering His deity or authority.
