Abiding in the Truth | Rev. Dr. Bankole Akinbinu | 1.18.2026 |10:00 AM

Welcome to worship! Thank you for joining us today! Enjoy the BGC worship experience as we look to God and praise His name.

Rev. Dr. Bankole Akinbinu emphasizes that the heart of the Christian life is abiding in God—a deliberate, sustained relationship with the living God rooted in Scripture and empowered by the Holy Spirit. He explains that true spiritual discernment and fruitfulness flow from anchoring our lives in God’s revealed truth, not mere religious activity or private interpretation of Scripture. Two key points he makes are: (1) the necessity of abiding in God’s Word—letting Scripture shape our thinking, desires, and actions so we move from mere knowledge to obedient faith, and (2) the role of the Holy Spirit—not just as occasional inspiration but as a present, personal reality that convicts, teaches, and guides believers into truth and transformation. By surrendering completely to Christ and remaining rooted in Him, believers are equipped to discern truth, resist error, and live out authentic Christian devotion in a confused world.
