Why did Jesus come?

Why did Jesus Come?," explores the multifaceted purpose of Jesus's coming beyond just saving humanity from sin. The main points are: Expanded Purpose: Citing Luke 4:17-21, the sermon asserts that Jesus was also sent to preach the gospel to the poor, heal the brokenhearted, proclaim liberty to the captives, recover sight to the blind, and set the oppressed free. Freedom from Religious Bondage: A key focus is that Jesus came to free people from the "bondage of religion," which the speaker defines as "to bind." This is exemplified by the Pharisees and Sadducees, who held people to man-made standards. Direct Access to God: The tearing of the temple veil upon Jesus's death (Matthew 27:50-52) is presented as the moment God removed the separation, allowing believers to approach Him directly without needing another person as an intermediary. The Role of the Church: While advocating for direct relationship with God, the sermon uses Hebrews 10:23-25 to stress the importance of not forsaking the assembly. The purpose of gathering is to "stir up love and good works," encourage one another, and offer support, not to hear from someone else what God is saying to an individual. Personal Responsibility: Believers are encouraged to study God's word for themselves, so that what is learned in church serves as confirmation of their personal revelation. Relying solely on others for God's message leaves one vulnerable to being led astray.
