What does genuine faith look like in the life of a believer? In this sermon, Alistair Begg breaks down several aspects of true saving faith. Like the royal official who pled for help in John 4, we must come to Christ humbly, acknowledging our own helplessness and asking Him to save us. When we do so sincerely, we will discover a heartfelt desire to serve Christ and to tell others about Him.
43After dthe two days he departed for Galilee. 44(For Jesus himself had testified ethat a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.) 45So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, fhaving seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast. For gthey too had gone to the feast.
46So he came again to hCana in Galilee, iwhere he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was ill. 47When this man heard that Jesus jhad come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48So Jesus said to him, k“Unless you3 see signs and wonders you will not believe.” 49The official said to him, “Sir, come down lbefore my child dies.” 50Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way. 51As he was going down, his servants4 met him and told him that his son was recovering. 52So he asked them the hour when he began to get better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour5 the fever left him.” 53The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” And he himself believed, mand all his household. 54nThis was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.
