Come with me to Babylon

Jul 27, 2025    Gary Hewins

Pastor Gary delved into two scriptures: Jeremiah 40:1-6 and John 8:31-36. He explained how Jeremiah's physical freedom from captivity symbolized the spiritual liberation believers can experience when they abide in Christ's teachings. He warned of the deceptive nature of "Babylon," representing worldly illusions that promise freedom but entrap people in false beliefs. By abiding in God's word, Pastor Gary stressed, believers could experience true freedom—a freedom that transcends geographic or societal contexts and offers emotional, intellectual, and spiritual liberation through Christ.
