Marvel Not - Pr Sascha Bramao

Title: Marvel Not Speaker: Pastor Sascha Bramao Date: 4th January 2026 Location: Wellington, New Zealand This episode explores the repeated biblical phrase “marvel not” and why Jesus used it when declaring the necessity of being born again. Rather than reacting with doubt or surprise, Christ calls for faith and obedience. The promise of new life was never a last-minute idea—it was declared through the prophets and fulfilled through the new covenant. From Jeremiah and Ezekiel to the words of Jesus in John, the message is consistent: God would cleanse, transform, and place His Spirit within His people. The discussion connects the new birth—through water baptism and receiving the Holy Spirit—with the fruit of the Spirit and the promise of resurrection life. It also addresses the reality of coming judgment, urging believers to aim for the first resurrection. The call is clear: don’t hesitate at what Jesus said. Respond, be changed, and walk in the power of the Spirit. Key Takeaways “Marvel not” means don’t doubt—respond in faith to Christ’s instruction. The new covenant promised a new heart and God’s Spirit within. There is a resurrection to life and a resurrection to judgment—prepare now.
