7 Dangerous Signs of an Imposter Faith
- Ritual – “Circumcised on the 8th day”
- Ethnicity – “Of the people of Israel”
- Family – “Of the tribe of Benjamin”
- Tradition – “A Hebrew of Hebrews”
- Association – “As to the Law, a Pharisee”
- Sincerity – “As to zeal, a persecutor of the church”
- Morality – “As to righteousness under the law, blameless”
- Every personal advantage is worth discarding if it means you truly have the chance to know Christ.
- Our most impressive attempts at righteousness are actually rubbish compared to knowing Christ.
- Salvation doesn’t come by doing good things but by believing the good news.
- Righteousness can only come from God and can only be obtained through faith.
- Salvation is knowing Christ – not knowing about Christ.
- The resurrection of Jesus is meant to be a daily reality – not a yearly observance.
- Jesus defeated death then so we could embrace life now.
- Knowing Christ is better than anything else.
