Are We Going to die in our religion or are we going to die in our devotion?

Superficial religion consists of merely believing certain truths and doing certain things....such superficial religion is rampant in the world today.

The price is certainly high for people who don’t know Christ and who live in a world where Christians shrink back from self-denying faith and settle into self-indulging faith. While Christians choose to spend their lives fulfilling the American dream instead of giving their lives to proclaiming the kingdom of God, literally billions in need of the Gospel remain in the dark

We bask in sermons, conferences, and books that exalt a grace centering on us.

Everything in all creation responds in obedience to the Creator... until we get to you and me. We have the audacity to look God in the face and say, "No."

Salvation now consists of a deep wrestling in our souls with the sinfulness of our hearts, the depth of our depravity, and the desperation of our need for his grace.

That is relinquishing control in a culture that prioritizes control and doing what you need to do in order to advance yourself.
