This sermon explores biblical fasting through the teaching of Jesus, contrasting gospel-centered fasting with legalism, hypocrisy, and asceticism. From Adam’s failure to Christ’s victorious fast in the wilderness, the message shows how fasting trains patience, humility, and spiritual maturity. Drawing from Matthew 6, Isaiah 58, and the early church, it emphasizes that fasting does not earn grace but flows from Christ’s finished work, leading to obedience, restoration, and covenant faithfulness.
