In this message, Apostle Gregory D. Kelley unpacks the contrasting responses of Simon the Pharisee and the woman with the alabaster box from Luke 7:36-50 (NIV). Simon approaches Jesus intellectually, seeking discussion and analysis, while the woman, known as a prostitute, offers her whole life to Jesus in an act of deep personal devotion. Simon's impersonal, detached approach highlights the difference between religion and relationship—he wants a conversation, but she desires a transformation. Her act of anointing Jesus’ feet with the alabaster jar symbolizes the surrender of her past life, seeking not just forgiveness but an intimate connection with Christ.

The sermon challenges us to reflect on how we approach Jesus—are we seeking a distant, intellectual encounter, or do we offer Him our whole hearts in genuine relationship?

In this enlightening sermon, Apostle Gregory D. Kelley dives into the story of Sarah and Abraham’s laughter, drawing on Genesis 21:1-7 (NKJV) and Genesis 18:12-13 (NKJV). The laughter they shared was not merely one of joy but a mixture of disbelief, skepticism, and wonder at the promises of God. Apostle Kelley explores how Sarah, upon hearing the Lord’s promise of a son, laughed in skepticism, doubting the reality of such a miracle at her old age. Genesis 18:12-13 highlights this intellectual skepticism, as both Abraham and Sarah were faced with the seeming impossibility of God’s promise.

Apostle Kelley ties this story to 2 Corinthians 1:20 (NKJV), emphasizing that all of God's promises are "Yes" and "Amen" in Christ, regardless of human doubt. The message underscores how even in moments of skepticism or laughter rooted in disbelief, God's word remains true, and His promises never fail.

The sermon further reflects on Genesis 21:8 (NKJV), as the fulfillment of God's promise brought laughter of a different kind—one of joy and amazement. Sarah’s disbelief turned into overwhelming joy as Isaac, the promised son, was born, and their laughter became a testament to the faithfulness of God.

Key Scriptures:

• Genesis 21:1-7 (NKJV)
• Genesis 18:12-13 (NKJV)
• 2 Corinthians 1:20 (NKJV)
• Genesis 21:8 (NKJV)

In this powerful sermon, Apostle Gregory D. Kelley unpacks the essence of true conversion using Acts 10:27-47 as a foundation. The message centers around the transformative nature of conversion, not as a replacement of who we are, but as a refacing—a complete turning around to face in a new direction. Conversion is God's initiative, driven by His power and purpose in our lives. Apostle Kelley emphasizes that real conversion begins with God's ability to assess and act independently, initiating transformation in our hearts through the Holy Spirit.

Key Scriptures:
- Acts 10:27-47
- Matthew 18:3

Transformation is possible when we surrender to God's initiative and allow the Holy Spirit to lead us into true conversion.
