Many people believe in God, yet live as if closeness with Him is risky.They show up.They listen.They obey.But deep down, they keep their distance.In Hebrews 12:18–24, Scripture puts us between two mountains. One marked by fear, distance, and trembling. The other marked by joy, welcome, and confident access into God’s presence.This sermon explores the difference between approaching God through fear and approaching Him through Christ. It shows how Jesus fulfills the law, removes the barrier of guilt, and invites believers to draw near with confidence and joy.If you’ve ever felt like you were allowed to be present with God but not fully welcome, this message is for you.
