Add Nothing to Jesus Christ (Acts 15:1-5)

The sermon centers on the necessity of holding fast to Jesus and his righteousness alone, addressing a dispute regarding circumcision for Gentile believers. It emphasizes that adding works or obedience to faith undermines the gospel message, distorting the foundation of hope in Christ. Drawing parallels to cooking, the message cautions against introducing elements that ruin a good thing, and highlights the importance of relying on Christ's completed work rather than striving for self-righteousness. The sermon underscores the significance of community, biblical study, and prayer, while ultimately calling listeners to find assurance of salvation solely in Jesus and to cherish him above all else.
