The following message by Michael Reeves was given at the 2026 Puritan Conference.
The Christian life is defined by Jesus, centred on Jesus, and it even begins to look like Jesus, in all his loveliness and goodness. It is not your own life, but his life being worked out in you. It is this way from day one, and will be this way right to the day when your race has been won.
And it will never stop feeling like kneeling at the cross in worship and wonder.
This Easter I want you to see how this little word “even” opens up a world of hope— even for you—no matter your sins, your circumstances, or what is happening in the world.
This is your Saviour. This is your King. For the Son of God has gone forth to war to fight for you, to win you back, and to spill his blood to redeem you forever from sin and death. This is the consolation of the world. The greatest comfort in life and death. And forever after.
We have an all-sufficient salvation because we have an all-sufficient Saviour. He brings us in. He keeps us in, and he carries us to the end.
