Remembering Who You Are "Spiritually Blessed in Christ" - 1 Corinthians 1:3-6

Part 3 of this sermon centers on the transformative power of recognizing one's identity in Christ as the foundation for living a life of humility, grace, and purpose. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 1, it emphasizes that believers are spiritually blessed in Christ—enriched in grace, utterance, and knowledge—not by personal merit but by God's unmerited favor. Pastor Friesen underscores that true spiritual growth involves ongoing sanctification: positional at salvation, progressive through daily surrender and mind renewal, and eternal in Christ's final redemption. Central to this journey is the necessity of humility, which opens the door to divine empowerment, enabling bold witness, faithful service, and genuine relationship with God. The message challenges listeners to move beyond passive church attendance, to seek understanding through prayerful engagement with Scripture, and to live as saints whose lives reflect Christ's glory, not their own. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a life of submission to God's will, where every word, action, and decision flows from dependence on Christ's grace rather than self-reliance.
