There's No Place Like Home | Pastor Cordell Liebrandt | 17 October 2026
Bellville SDA Church
In his sermon, “There’s No Place Like Home,” Pastor Cordell Liebrandt reminds the congregation that the Christian journey is a journey of faith toward our eternal home with Jesus. Through the symbolism of the Lord’s Supper, he highlights three key truths: the price of our homecoming, the promise of our homecoming, and the celebration that awaits us. Jesus’ sacrifice at Calvary paid the price for our redemption, making it possible for humanity to be reconciled with God and freed from the consequences of sin. Through communion, believers remember Christ’s death while holding firmly to His promise to return and take them to His Father’s house, where they will dwell with Him forever. Pastor Liebrandt emphasizes that this promised home is not defined by earthly riches or splendour, but by the presence of Jesus, the restoration of relationships, and the end of suffering, death, and tears. He encourages the church to remain faithful and to support one another as they await the great reunion and the marriage supper of the Lamb, when God will make all things new. The sermon concludes with a message of hope and assurance: because Jesus has promised to return, we can confidently look forward to being home at last, home with Jesus, and home forever.
