(10-18-24, Friday Night) The bronze Serpent - Jonthan Cook

Summary

The sermon explores the biblical account of the bronze serpent in Numbers 21:4-9, illustrating how the Israelites' sin led to judgment and how looking upon the lifted serpent brought healing. The preacher draws a parallel to Jesus Christ, who was lifted up on the cross to bear the judgment for humanity's sin, becoming sin for us though He was without sin. This comparison emphasizes salvation through faith in Christ's finished work, not by human effort. The message reassures believers of eternal life and encourages trust in Jesus alone for salvation.
