Laying Hold

Summary

Elder Dan Sammons preaches on the concept of "laying hold" in the Christian life, emphasizing the difference between possessing something and actively embracing it. Using the parable of the prodigal son, he illustrates how believers may possess sonship and eternal life but fail to lay hold of these blessings through repentance and faith. He encourages believers to lay hold of wisdom, right action, eternal life, and hope, highlighting the importance of trusting God's grace rather than personal worthiness. The sermon calls Christians to actively engage with their faith, live righteously, and embrace the hope and inheritance promised by God.
