For God I Live // Pastor Mason Seybert // Alive Church

In this sermon, “For God I Live”, Pastor Mason Seybert delivers a bold message that challenges believers to move beyond a pick-and-choose faith and live completely surrendered to Jesus Christ. In a world full of compromise, distraction, and spiritual lukewarmness, we're reminded why what we believe now matters more than ever. This message calls us to declare with conviction: “For God I live, and for God I die.” Drawing from 1 Peter 3:15, Pastor Mason reminds us that every follower of Christ is must be set apart, ready to give an answer, and do it with gentleness and respect. The Greek word “Apologia” means “speech in defense, a reasoned argument”—and as believers, we are called to live as modern-day apologists, standing firm in faith with both love and truth. This sermon exposes the dangers of a divided heart. You can’t serve God halfway. He’s not calling us to convenience—He’s calling us to commitment. Whether you’re walking through doubt, persecution, or cultural pressure, this message reminds you that the same God who worked miracles back then is still working right now and He still deserves our all. When you truly encounter God, your life changes—and people will notice. Like the blind man in John 9:1–12, your testimony becomes undeniable: “I was blind, but now I see.” You don’t need to know every verse or debate every skeptic—you just need to know that what you were is not what you are now because of Jesus. Your transformation is your greatest defense. Pastor Mason also highlights a Barnum study on 10 of the most common questions about Christianity and provide scriptures to help us answer them: 1. If God is all-loving and all-powerful, why is there evil, suffering, injustice in the world?(Scripture: Romans 8:28; Job; Isaiah 53) 2. How can you trust the Bible - is it reliable, historically accurate, inspired?(Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16-17) 3. Why does Christianity claim to be "the one true way when there are many religions?(Scripture: John 14:6; Act
