Evening Sermon - 1st February 2026 - Victory in Jesus: Children, Overcomers, and a Greater God

This evening's sermon is delivered by Rev. George Speers.

Preaching from 1 John 4:1-6, the Reverend George Speers explores what it means to have genuine victory in Christ amid spiritual warfare and deception. Rev Speers unpacks three truths from John's declaration that "he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world": believers are children of God by divine regeneration, overcomers through Christ's finished work, and indwelt by a God infinitely greater than any opposing force. Drawing on figures from Spurgeon and Calvin to Hudson Taylor and Fanny Crosby, along with biblical examples such as David, Elijah, and Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, this sermon offers a rich, encouraging picture of assured victory in Jesus.
