6/8/2008 Rick Hogaboam Sermon Recap on John 21:18-25 “How Will You Glorify God in Your Death?”

Jesus tells Peter that He will die and Peter is quick to ask about the beloved disciple, John, to which Jesus essentially says that He will do with John as He pleases. Jesus then tells Peter to follow Him.

John adds some commentary saying that Jesus was talking about the death by which Peter would glorify God with. We learn here that God has ordained our life and death and it is all to glorify Him. Paul said that for him to live was Christ and to die gain. We must be gripped by this reality that God wants to be glorified in our lives and our deaths.

May the sermon challenge you to examine your own lives and your understanding of death.
