Jesus is Greater: Don't Trade the Eternal for the Immediate - Pastor Chad Braley

Sunday PM, January 11, 2026 In this message from Hebrews 12:14–17, “Don’t Trade the Eternal for the Immediate,” we are challenged to live as disciplined sons who intentionally pursue peace with others, holiness before God, and hearts guarded by grace rather than poisoned by bitterness. Using the sobering example of Esau, who traded his priceless birthright for a momentary appetite, we are reminded that spiritual loss rarely comes through open rebellion but through small, short-sighted choices made under pressure. God’s loving discipline is designed to shape us into holy people who see Him clearly, walk in joy, and reflect the gospel in our relationships, but when grace is resisted and bitterness is allowed to take root, eternal blessings can be exchanged for temporary relief with lasting consequences. This sermon calls every believer to examine what they are pursuing, what they are tolerating, and what they may be trading away, urging us to finish the race faithfully by valuing what God calls sacred over what the flesh demands.
