When Faith Hurts: Good Works, Betrayal, and the Love of God
This sermon explores John 3:16–18 and the tension between faith, emotion, and obedience. It reflects on how believers often approach faith through doctrine and problem-solving, yet still face deep pain when betrayed by family, friends, or the world around them. Drawing from Genesis, Isaiah 53, Matthew 5, and the crucifixion of Yeshua, the message emphasizes that good works matter, our actions affect others, and emotional suffering is part of the human experience. Even in heartache, God’s love, salvation, and purpose remain sure. The call is to be angry and do not sin, to let our light shine through good works, and to trust that God can bring good out of even the deepest wounds.
