Message: How We Grow

Speaker: Tim Bounds

Service Date: May 28, 2023 Plain Print Version

I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.

1 Corinthians 3:6-7

Religion operates on the principle of "I obey--therefore I am accepted by God." The basic operating principle of the gospel is "I am accepted by God through the work of Jesus Christ--therefore I obey."
Timothy Keller
