Listen "Would You Be Chosen?"
Episode Synopsis
This sermon, rooted in Acts 6:1–7, centers on the transformative call to live as faithful, God-ordained servants in the church, emphasizing that while salvation is entirely by grace and not by merit, being chosen for specific service requires godly character and a response to that grace. The preacher highlights four essential qualities—good reputation, being filled with the Holy Spirit, fullness of wisdom, and deep faith—as the marks of those who were selected to serve the early church, not as a means of earning favor but as a natural outflow of a life transformed by grace. Drawing from Scripture, especially Ephesians 2:10 and James 1:5–8, the message calls believers to intentional discipleship, urging them to cultivate these virtues not for self-justification but as a thankful response to God's unmerited favor. The tone is both pastoral and convicting, reminding the congregation that sanctification is a daily pursuit of holiness, marked by submission to the Spirit, obedience to God's Word, and a life that reflects Christ in all spheres. Ultimately, the sermon challenges every believer to ask, 'Would you be chosen?'—not for personal glory, but as a call to faithful service and continual growth in grace.
