Pastor Mike Abendroth continues the discussion on doubt and assurance, expanding on Jesus’ words in Luke 7. He contrasts the struggles of believers with the hardened rejection of the Pharisees, illustrating how self-righteousness blinds people to their need for salvation. Through an engaging mix of biblical teaching, personal reflections, and humor, Mike unpacks how Jesus responded to John the Baptist’s doubt with kindness and affirmation while condemning the obstinate unbelief of those who rejected both John and Jesus. He explores the parable of the "spoiled brats" who refuse to engage, whether in the somber call to repentance or the joyous call to grace, drawing parallels to modern-day skeptics. This episode serves as both an encouragement for Christians wrestling with assurance and a sobering reminder of the consequences of rejecting God's truth.
